If you are looking for a good deal for auto shipping, now is the time to act! It will soon be that special time of the year when the Snowbirds flock down south for the winter, and this means that we'll have increased availability and lower prices along the outbound routes!

For those who aren't aware, the Snowbird season takes places during the Fall / Winter seasons and is a migration out of the North and into the South. During this period, we move a great deal of vehicles from the North to the South and a great deal less from the South to the North. This leaves us with a glut of drivers with empty trucks in the South, naturally making shipping much cheaper and more available. So, if you're looking for a good deal on auto shipping, now is the time to act! Prices for northbound routes tend to be around 50% less expensive during this time of the year than any other time, so move your vehicle for less today! Call American Auto Transport at (866) 327-7863 for more pricing and information on getting the best deals in auto transport.

Truth be told, the months between September and April is the best time to move your vehicle to just about anywhere in the nation. The summer months are the auto transport industry's busy on-seasons. Transporting during the summertime is generally more expensive and less available than any other period in the year. But as the summer comes to an end, demand for auto shipping drop significantly. So for the best deals, always try to ship during the off-season.

The following is a short list of the best times to ship from region to region for the cheapest rates:

Northeast - Fall / Winter (Snowbird Season)

Northwest -Fall / Winter

Midwest - Fall / Winter (Snowbird Season)

West Coast (Southern California) - Fall / Winter

Southeast - Spring / Summer (from the Northeast / Midwest)

Southwest - Spring / Summer (from the Northeast / Midwest)

Alaska / Hawaii /Puerto Rico - Year Round (Fixed Rates)

Keep in mind that these are general trends. Particular routes may vary in pricing and availability based on demand, but for the most part these are the prime times to ship to a given region.
