Car shipping from Illinois to Nevada

One of the routes we run most between Illinois and Nevada. Roughly 1,720 miles metro to metro, 3 to 5 days in transit, and a price set by what carriers are accepting the week you book.

Carriers usually run this lane on I-70, joining I-25 at either end. Drivers route around weather, roadworks and the other vehicles on the trailer, so that is the usual line rather than a fixed one.

What moves the price

Why a IL to NV quote changes

Two cars on the same lane in the same week can price differently. On 1,720 miles, these are the factors that actually shift the number.

Price this lane now
  • Where the lane sits against carrier demand

    Chicago and Las Vegas are both served daily, so this lane fills quickly. Rates track what carriers are accepting on it that week rather than a fixed table, which is why $880 to $1,140 is a band and not a single figure.

  • Which trailer the car travels on

    Around nine in ten vehicles on this lane move open. Enclosed adds roughly 60%, taking it to $1,410-$1,820, and buys four walls, a lift gate and a truck carrying fewer cars.

  • Vehicle size and condition

    Trucks, SUVs and lifted vehicles take more deck space and weight than the sedan those figures assume, typically adding 10 to 25%. Anything that will not roll, steer and brake needs winch loading, which not every carrier on this lane has.

  • Weather across the route

    At 1,720 miles this lane crosses several weather systems. Winter routing can add a day or two, and carriers price that risk in through the worst of it. Summer is the cheaper and more predictable half of the year on long hauls.

  • Seasonal direction of travel

    Nevada is a snowbird destination, so this direction tightens from October through December. Rates rise while everyone moves the same way, and the return leg softens at the same time. Booking two to three weeks before the peak is the cheapest way to ship it.
