Car Hauling Dispatch Service Cost
Car hauling is different form general freight. At USA Despatch, we help new companies to succeed in this business. We charge from 6% to 10% for our car hauling dispatch service. Auto transportation differs significantly from booking loads for dry vans and reefers. Here are some of the challenges that make car hauling dispatch more complex:
Why Car Hauling Dispatch is So Complex?
- Numerous Deliveries and Pick-ups: Ideally, you’d have one pickup and one delivery for all vehicles, but realistically, there are usually several pickups and deliveries. Dispatchers must plan optimal routes, considering different pickup and delivery hours.
- Matching Vehicles to Fit the Trailer: Think of a car hauling trailer as a puzzle. Dispatchers must constantly be aware of vehicle sizes and trailer capacity to ensure everything fits.
- Weight Issues: Weight is crucial, especially for auto transporters hauling over five vehicles. Dispatchers need to monitor vehicle weights to comply with DOT regulations.
- Height Restrictions: Vehicle height is also important, especially for trailers with two decks, due to bridge clearances. The East Coast of the USA, for example, has lower bridges that require careful planning.
- Dealing with Various Clients: Dispatchers must handle different pickup and delivery locations, like dealerships, auctions, and private customers, each with their own requirements and restrictions.
