So you’re moving interstate, and you need to transport your car?

Your first option might be driving your car by yourself. Self-vehicle transport seems to be an easy and affordable option.

But what if there was a better way?

Using a car transportation company has many advantages, and this article will explore seven advantages of using a car transportation company to transport your car interstate.

Cheaper

Compared to driving the vehicle yourself interstate, using a car transport company can save you money.

According to the Australian Automobile Association, the fuel costs in the first quarter of 2024 averaged 100 AUD per week. There has also been a 169% increase in toll road expenses since February 2018.

You would need to check with a professional car transport company about their exact fees and costs, though you can get free quotes through their websites.

Check out the fast and free quote process on WeMoveCars. The actual booking only takes two minutes with no login required.

WeMoveCars offers quotes for transporting a standard sedan from Melbourne to Brisbane starting at around 800 AUD. In contrast, the estimated fuel and toll costs for self-driving that 1,700 km route would be approximately 900 AUD. This is based on average fuel consumption of 8 litres per 100 km and toll fees of around 150 AUD.

Environmentally Friendly

What’s more, using a car transportation company helps to save the environment. The world is going through climate crises affected by fossil fuels and vehicle emissions. The Australian Bureau of Statistics states that passenger vehicles consumed 18,094 megalitres of fuel, more than any other vehicle type in 2020.

When using a car transportation company, you would be able to be more environmentally friendly and help save fuel, since one carrier can hold a couple of cars.

Safer

One major concern might be the safety of your car and potential damages. Professional car transport services would ensure safety through protective measures and handling procedures, as well as advanced equipment. From providing enclosed transport to premium car transportation, car transport companies like WeMoveCars have a wide range of secure services to choose from.

Time-saving

Imagine you have to drive eighteen long hours from Melbourne to Brisbane. Now, imagine you don’t have to drive eighteen hours at all, what a relief! You could save so much time if you used a car transportation company, and though each car transport company provides different timelines, you can expect to save your time since you do not personally have to drive your car(s) interstate.

WeMoveCars offers quotes for transporting a standard sedan from Melbourne to Brisbane starting at around 800 AUD. In contrast, the estimated fuel and toll costs for self-driving that 1,700 km route would be approximately 900 AUD. This is based on average fuel consumption of 8 litres per 100 km and toll fees of around 150 AUD.

Energy Saving

Whether you have an AV (automated vehicle) or an ICE (Internal Combustion Engine), you can save energy in terms of fuel or battery by using a car transportation company. WeMoveCars transports different kinds of vehicles from cars to caravans.

Convenience

With door-to-door and depot services, car transport companies can offer convenient ways of moving your car interstate. With just a touch of your fingers, you can get your car transported interstate with little to no hassle when you choose to get a quote and book online. Many car transportation companies readily provide convenient methods of interstate car transport, whether related to payment booking or tracking progress.

Customer Support

Behind every car transportation company people are working tirelessly to help customers achieve the results they look for. Using a car transportation company means flexible and helpful customer support. You can expect support every step of the way, from first getting your quote to having your car delivered to its destination.

Now that you know about the seven reasons to use a car transportation company, you can decide which company is the best for you when you want to move your car interstate.
