Route overview
Oklahoma City to Houston is about 445 miles, heading south on I-35 and I-10. The published transit of 1 to 2 days after pickup works out to roughly 220 to 450 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 $1.12 to $1.57 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.
If your street in Oklahoma City or Houston is too narrow, too steep or too tree-lined for a full-size carrier, the driver will arrange to meet at a nearby open lot instead.
Most regional moves go on open carriers. Enclosed transport is quoted on request for high-value vehicles.
