Route overview
Orlando to Chicago is about 1,135 miles, heading north on I-75 and I-65. The published transit of 4 to 6 days after pickup works out to roughly 190 to 280 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 $850 to $1,150, about 75 cents to $1.01 a mile.
Leave about a quarter tank of fuel and take out toll transponders and parking passes, so the vehicle does not register tolls while it rides on the trailer.
Open transport suits most vehicles on a route this long. Enclosed trailers cost more and earn it for classic, luxury and low-clearance cars, which would otherwise ride 4 to 6 days exposed to weather and road grit.

Every partner is licensed and insured. Before the Orlando 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.
