Prime Trans runs it with open car haulers weekly at minimum, more often around the Atlanta auction calendar, and corridor towns such as Anderson, Commerce and Gainesville load without a detour.

Is this a same-day run?
Yes. Three hours each way is inside a single driver's day with loading time at both ends, which is why this lane prices better than its distance suggests.
Do you pick up at both Atlanta Manheim auctions?
Manheim Atlanta and Manheim Georgia are about twenty minutes apart, so units at both go on one truck rather than costing you two trips. ADESA Atlanta in Fairburn fits on the same load.
Can you deliver inside the perimeter?
Yes, with a delivery window agreed in advance. A loaded high-mount rig inside I-285 at four in the afternoon is a bad plan and we would rather schedule around it than sit in it.
Do corridor towns cost extra?
Barely. Commerce, Braselton, Gainesville and Anderson are on the road already, so a stop there costs a fraction of a dedicated trip.
