Hot Spots!

There are certain terms that are specifically used in the auto shipping industry – ‘hot spots’ or conversely cold-spots is one of them. Hot Spots are places that trucks are moving into, or where a lot of people are going to. In other words these are the popular, in-demand spots, thus, making it easier and cheaper to ship your vehicle. During the summer months, some of the hot spots are Florida, Alabama, South Carolina and anywhere in the Deep South. Cold spots are places that trucks don’t really want to travel to, therefore, making your shipping a bit more expensive. In summer, this typically means California and the rest of the Pacific Northwest. Trucks going here seem to be scarce because of all the traffic backups going through California during the summer. However, in the winter, it really changes. Florida and the Deep South end are places that usually become more expensive because everyone is heading back home. On the other hand, car shipping usually goes down in the Northwest region. Therefore, you need to keep in mind where you want your vehicle to be shipped - the hot or the cold spots – and during what time of the year. Remember the prices will fluctuate accordingly.
