Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances (under 500 miles), but for long cross-country moves (over 1,000 miles), shipping can become comparable or even cheaper when factoring in your time, food, lodging, and significant vehicle wear-and-tear, making driving less cost-effective despite lower upfront gas costs. The decision balances direct fuel savings against the hidden costs and time commitment of a long drive, with shipping offering convenience and preserving your car's mileage and condition.

The average cost to transport a vehicle ranges from $400 to over $2,000, depending heavily on distance, with shorter trips (under 500 miles) around $400-$800 and cross-country routes $1,200-$2,000+ for open transport, while enclosed carriers add 30-50% more for protection. Key factors are distance, open vs. enclosed carrier, vehicle size/weight, and seasonal demand, with higher costs for luxury/classic cars, inoperable vehicles, or expedited service.
