Why dealers and drivers use this lane
I-85 links Charlotte to Atlanta through Greenville and Spartanburg, and it is a lane we run often: auction buys headed to Charlotte-area dealers, and inventory moving the other direction toward Georgia stores. Atlanta's auction volume is part of why this lane sees regular traffic in both directions, with purchased inventory heading north to Charlotte-area lots. Loads on this lane also connect with dealer groups in the Upstate, so a single order can sometimes serve two stops on the way south.

Auction pickups on this lane often move on a tighter timeline than a standard trade, so send the auction location, the VIN and the release as soon as you have them. We confirm a carrier running I-85 and keep you posted until the car reaches Charlotte or continues on to Atlanta.
Call the dealer desk at (980) 552-1101, or use the form on this page, to get it moving.
