Cost of Shipping An Exmark Lawn Mower
Shipping an Exmark lawn mower typically ranges between $1 and $3 per mile as of the current rate. The price is determined by various factors, including mileage, the mower’s specifications, season, and other additional services that influence the cost.
If you plan to move a lawnmower anywhere, whether locally or nationwide, please call us for a detailed, customized quote tailored to your specific shipping requirements. Here is an overview of the factors that are factored into the final shipping price.
Traveling Distance
The exact distance between the pickup and drop-off locations is the key factor that impacts the cost of shipping, as it impacts the ebbs and flows of fuel consumption, driving hours, and resource utilization.
Local or regional moves typically incur a lower overall price.
Long-distance and cross-country shipments are comparatively less expensive per mile, but have a higher overall expenditure.
Mower’s specifications
The size and weight of the mower are directly proportional to the increase and decrease in price:
The heavier and bulkier the mower, the higher the cost increases.
They occupy more space on the freight.
They require specialized handling equipment and custom trailers.
Oversized loads also necessitate permits and licenses.
Shipping method
Shipping methods, such as standard ground shipping and freight shipping, also significantly affect the cost.
For weights less than 150 pounds, parcel shipping is used as a cost-effective option; on the other hand, for heavy and oversized mowers, such as ride-on or commercial zero-turn mowers, freight shipping is the ideal option.
In Freight shipping, two further submethods are involved, named LTL(less-than-truckload) and FTL (full-truckload). LTL is relatively cheaper as your shipments are carried along with other cargo. You are expected to pay for your portion of the freight.
Geography of locations
The geographical location of pickup and drop-off sites also impacts the cost.
Rural or remote areas are considered hard-to-access points that require extra mileage, wear and tear, and extended driving hours.
Less frequent routes, dense infrastructure, or residential areas also make the logistical movement complex and costly.
Additional assistance for loading/unloading, such as the use of a liftgate, increases the costs.
Type of services: Expedited shipping
The type of services you choose for your shipments is also counted in while charging the price:
Standard shipping, which has a longer delivery window, is affordable but requires flexibility with shipping dates.
Quick or guaranteed pickup comes at a premium cost because our carrier picks up your shipment within 24 hours or exactly on the agreed-upon time. Though not guaranteed, delivery in expedited shipping is significantly faster than standard shipping
Seasonal fluctuation
During spring and early summer, demand for shipping services increases significantly, and so do the shipping rates.
During off-peak seasons, we have a flexible schedule and discounted rates, which our clients can avail themselves of.
Additional Services
Purchasing an additional insurance plan for high-value lawn mowers comes at a premium cost.
Obtaining oversized load permits for overdimensional lawnmowers incurs additional charges.
We also provide packaging and palletizing for enhanced protection of shipments, which is added to the final bill.
Open and enclosed carrier
Open carrier is the standard way of shipping. It is affordable and provides medium protection.
Enclosed shipping is a white glove service for your high-value lawn mowers, protecting it against external elements.
