Dealer Auto Transport Services: High-Velocity Logistics for Dealerships & Auctions
Turn Inventory Faster. Reliable, High-Volume Shipping from Auction to Lot in 3 Days.
Speed is the currency of the automotive industry.
In the dealership world, every day a vehicle sits idle on a transporter or stuck at an auction lot is a day it’s costing you money. Floorplan interest accumulates, market values fluctuate, and retail opportunities are missed. You don’t need a generic car shipper; you need a logistics partner who understands that inventory velocity determines profitability.
At Furious Auto Shipping, we have spent over 7 years refining our Dealer Auto Transport Services to meet the rigorous demands of franchise dealerships, independent groups, and wholesale buyers. We understand that getting a unit from the auction block to your front line in 3 days instead of 10 isn't just a convenience—it’s a competitive advantage.
Our logistics infrastructure is built to support high-volume moves, dealer trades, and auction sweeps with precision. We handle the logistics so you can focus on what matters: turning inventory.

Strategic Inventory Movement
The modern dealership isn't limited by geography. Buying inventory in the Midwest to sell in the South? Sourcing rust-free trucks from the West Coast? Our Dealer Auto Transport Services bridge the gap, allowing you to source vehicles where they are cheapest and sell them where they command the highest gross.
Bulk Discounts & Volume Pricing
One-off shipping rates kill margins. That is why we offer structured volume pricing designed for scalability. We treat your transport needs as a portfolio, not individual transactions.
By consolidating your shipments, we can utilize full 9-car haulers rather than relying on piecemeal 3-car wedges. This efficiency lowers fuel costs per unit, and we pass those savings directly to your bottom line.
Volume Pricing Tiers & Benefits
| Shipment Type | Unit Count | Key Benefit | Typical Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single Unit | 1 Vehicle | Speed & Flexibility (Expedited) | Standard Market Rate |
| LTL (Less Than Load) | 3-5 Vehicles | Shared Trailer Efficiency | 10-15% off per unit |
| Full Truckload | 7-9 Vehicles | Maximum Priority & Direct Route | 20-25% off per unit |
| Recurring Lane | 10+ Monthly | Contracted Fixed Pricing | Custom Corporate Rates |

Auto Auction Expertise: Manheim, Adesa & Copart
Buying at auction is high-stress; shipping shouldn't be. We are deeply embedded in the logistics ecosystem of every major auction house in the United States. We understand that auto auction shipping requires more than just a truck—it requires administrative precision.
Our drivers and dispatchers are well-versed in:
- Gate Passes & Release Forms: We ensure all paperwork is in order before the driver arrives, preventing "dry runs" and storage fees.
- Gate Hours & Procedures: We know the loading times for Manheim Pennsylvania vs. Adesa Phoenix and plan arrivals to avoid lockouts.
- Inop & Forklift Handling: Buying from Copart or IAA? We have the winches and specialized equipment to load non-running units safely.
The Auction-to-Lot Timeline
We track Manheim auction transport metrics closely. By pre-booking carriers on auction days, we often secure space before the sale even ends, ensuring your vehicles leave the gate while your competitors are still calling brokers.
Key Dealer Trade & High-Frequency Routes
We operate on a national scale, but we specialize in the high-frequency lanes that keep the US automotive market moving. By focusing on these "logistics corridors," we can offer faster pickup windows and more predictable delivery times (ETAs).
Primary Dealer Logistics Corridors
| Origin Hub | Destination Hub | Avg. Transit Time | Primary Inventory Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Florida (Orlando/Miami) | New Jersey / New York | 2 - 4 Days | Lease Returns / Snowbird Units |
| Texas (Dallas/Houston) | California (LA/SFO) | 3 - 5 Days | Rust-Free Trucks / Exotics |
| Illinois (Chicago) | Florida (Tampa/Miami) | 3 - 4 Days | Seasonal Inventory Swaps |
| Arizona (Phoenix) | Texas (Dallas) | 1 - 2 Days | Auction Transfers (Adesa/Manheim) |

Insurance, Compliance & Risk Management
In the B2B world, liability is a major concern. You are entrusting us with hundreds of thousands of dollars in assets. We take that responsibility seriously.
- FMCSA Compliance: We only partner with carriers who maintain active authority and clean safety records.

- Claims Assistance: In the rare event of damage, our internal claims department handles the process on your behalf, ensuring you are made whole quickly so you can retail the vehicle.

Dealer Auto Transport FAQ
Common questions about our dealer auto transport services
We prioritize speed for dealers; most regional auction lanes (under 500 miles) are completed within 24 to 48 hours of dispatch. For cross-country moves, we typically average 3–5 days. We understand that "days to lot" affects your holding costs, so we pre-stage carriers at major hubs like Manheim and Adesa to ensure your vehicles move as soon as the gate pass is released.
Yes, shipping a full 9-car load is the most cost-effective way to move inventory. When you fill a carrier completely, we can typically lower the per-unit cost by 15–20% compared to single-unit rates. This is ideal for bulk auction purchases or large inter-store transfers. Contact our B2B team to lock in a dedicated "lane rate" for your recurring routes.
Our team manages the entire release process for you. Once you provide the Buyer Number and Lot Number, we upload the Gate Pass directly to the carrier’s dispatch app. Our drivers are registered with all major auctions (Manheim, Copart, IAA, Adesa) and know the specific gate hours and exit procedures, preventing "dry runs" or storage fee delays.
Yes, we specialize in moving inop and salvage vehicles. Whether the unit has a dead battery or significant collision damage, we dispatch carriers equipped with winches and forklifts. Please note that "non-running" status must be declared at booking, as it requires specific equipment and typically incurs a standard inop fee (usually $150–$200) for the extra labor involved.
Yes, every vehicle is covered by the carrier’s Cargo Insurance policy from pickup to delivery. We verify that all our B2B carriers maintain active policies (typically $250,000+ per load) to cover total loss or damage. For high-value loads (exotics or luxury fleets), we can arrange supplemental insurance certificates (COI) listing your dealership as the certificate holder.
Yes, Dealer Trades are flagged as "Priority Dispatch" in our system. We understand these vehicles often have a retail customer waiting on the other end. While retail shipping windows are flexible, dealer trades are treated as time-critical logistics operations, often utilizing hot-shot haulers (3-car wedges) for faster, direct delivery between stores.
