Factors That Influence The Cost of RV Transport

While there are average rates, they do fluctuate based on several factors. At Heavy Haulers, we take all factors into consideration to provide you with a free, no-obligation RV and motorhome shipping quote.

1. Distance and Route

Per-Mile Rates

Longer trips often have lower per-mile rates, but the total cost is higher.

Remote vs. Urban Routes

Transporting through rural areas may cost more due to limited carriers servicing those locations.

Tolls and Road Fees

Some routes may have additional toll costs, particularly near major highways.

2. Type and Size of the RV

Class A Motorhomes (largest)

Typically the most expensive to transport due to weight and size.

Class B & C Motorhomes (smaller)

More affordable to transport.

Fifth-Wheel Trailers & Travel Trailers

Costs vary based on length, weight, and whether they require specialized handling.

Oversized RVs

If an RV exceeds standard dimensions, special permits and escorts may be needed.

3. Transport Method

Drive-Away Service

A driver physically moves the RV to the destination. Generally cheaper but adds wear and tear.

Flatbed or Lowboy Trailer

Secure but more expensive, ideal for non-operational or luxury RVs.

Tow-Away Service

The RV is towed using a truck, a common method for travel trailers.

4. Fuel Prices and Market Demand

Fuel Costs

Fluctuating fuel prices directly impact transport costs.

Seasonal Demand

Higher costs in peak travel seasons (spring and summer) due to increased demand.

5. Pickup and Delivery Location

Door-to-Door Service

More convenient but often costs more than terminal-to-terminal transport.

Rural or Difficult-to-Access Locations

Delivering to remote areas may add to the cost due to longer detours.

6. Permits and Regulations

Oversized Load Permits

Required if the RV exceeds height, width, or length restrictions.

State and Local Regulations

Certain areas have special transport requirements that may add to the cost.

7. Additional Services

Expedited Shipping

Faster delivery comes at a premium.

Storage Fees

If the RV cannot be delivered immediately, storage costs may apply.

Insurance Coverage

Higher coverage options increase transport costs but provide peace of mind.

California State Routes
