"Moved from Naperville to Plano for work. Lepke picked up my car on Friday and it was in my new driveway by Monday. Unbelievable."
"Chicago to Frisco in 3 days. Price was locked in — no surprises at delivery. I'd use Lepke again without question."
"Schaumburg to McKinney. The driver called ahead, arrived exactly on time. Car was spotless. Great experience all around."
The Chicago-to-Dallas corridor is one of the shortest and most popular Midwest-to-Texas auto transport routes. At roughly 920 miles via I-55 and I-30, it's a quick, well-covered lane — carriers run it regularly, which means faster dispatch times and competitive pricing. With Dallas-Fort Worth growing into one of the largest metros in the country, this corridor sees steady demand year-round from corporate relocations, remote workers, and families making the Texas move.
Transit time on this route is typically 2–4 days from pickup to delivery — faster than most cross-country corridors. Chicago-area carriers heading south have strong connections through the Dallas-Fort Worth metro, which means your vehicle isn't sitting at a depot waiting for a consolidation. We dispatch directly to your Dallas-area delivery address, whether that's in downtown Dallas, the suburbs of Plano and Frisco, or further out into the DFW sprawl.
Corporate relocation corridor: Chicago and Dallas are both massive corporate headquarters cities. Employees relocating between the two metros often ship their personal vehicles while flying ahead or driving a rental. Our corporate relocation clients get the same door-to-door service as individual customers — with flexible scheduling to match your moving timeline.
Texas summers can get extreme, with Dallas temperatures regularly hitting 100°F+. If you're shipping a luxury or classic vehicle, enclosed transport offers protection from heat, sun exposure, and road debris. For standard vehicles, open transport is the practical choice and what the vast majority of our customers use. Either way, your vehicle arrives door-to-door without a single mile added to the odometer.
We serve all of Chicagoland — city neighborhoods, North Shore, western suburbs, and beyond.
Door-to-door delivery throughout the DFW metroplex — city, suburbs, and beyond.

For standard vehicles, open transport is perfectly fine and what most customers choose. If you're shipping a luxury car, classic, or newer high-value vehicle — especially heading into Texas summers where temperatures can exceed 100°F — enclosed transport offers added protection from heat, UV, and road debris. Enclosed adds roughly $200–$400 to the total cost.
We strongly advise against it. Auto transport carriers are not licensed household goods movers, so personal items are not covered by cargo insurance. Additionally, weight from personal items can affect carrier pricing and compliance. A few small items in the trunk (under 100 lbs) are generally tolerated by carriers, but valuables, electronics, and fragile items should travel with you. See our car prep guide for the full checklist.
