Route overview
Charlotte to Nashville is about 410 miles, heading west on I-40 West. The published transit of 1 to 3 days after pickup works out to roughly 140 to 410 miles a day, slower than driving it yourself because the truck stops for other vehicles and federal rules cap the driver at 11 hours behind the wheel per shift.
The published range for a standard sedan on an open carrier is $500 to $700, about $1.22 to $1.71 a mile. Loading, inspection and dispatch cost the same on any route, so a short run like this one carries a higher per-mile rate than a cross-country move.
Someone aged 18 or over needs to be at each end to hand over or receive the keys and sign the inspection report. If you cannot be there yourself, name a friend, relative or colleague when you book.
Most regional moves go on open carriers. Enclosed transport is quoted on request for high-value vehicles.

Every partner is licensed and insured. Before the Charlotte pickup, ask for the carrier's MC or USDOT number to check on FMCSA SAFER and for its cargo insurance certificate; the Bill of Lading guide explains the inspection you sign at both ends, and the disclaimer sets out who is responsible for what.
