Across the Map: Wisconsin Auto Transport Services
Wisconsin is a state located in the Great Lakes and Midwest regions of the United States. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Wisconsin is home to a population of over 5.76 million residents, which ranks it 20th among all 50 states in terms of total population. It also ranks 23rd in total area, which sits at almost 65,000 square miles. The state is known for geographic diversity and its barren – but beautiful – landscapes and vistas. It is known as “America’s Dairyland” as it is one of the country’s largest producers of dairy products. The largest city in the state is Milwaukee, which is also the most popular area for Wisconsin auto transport services, while the state capital is Madison.
Wisconsin’s growth is mostly attributed to the shift in focus from fur trading to mining, most notably of lead. Wisconsin became a mining area that brought a lot of low-skill, high-risk jobs to the state, and thus a lot of new residents. The opening of the Erie Canal also helped facilitate growth, notably in Wisconsin’s port cities like Milwaukee and Madison, as settlers from New York and New England came and began settling in the region. This helped the state to grow even further, and over time Milwaukee in particular grew into a fairly large economic and cultural center in Wisconsin and the Midwest as a whole. This makes Wisconsin auto transport services easier – and, usually, cheaper – to find and book, though its remoteness does a bit to offset this.
Ease of access in any area is an important part of the availability and cost of auto transportation services. Wisconsin sits rather far north and is relatively removed from the rest of the country. Auto shippers like to run routes to and from cities that sit relatively close to other cities and metropolitan areas. Milwaukee sits in the far south of Wisconsin, which makes it a lot easier to get to and from especially when you take into account how many interstate highways run through the region. That said, upper Wisconsin can be really expensive to ship a vehicle to and from; Wisconsin auto transport services are typically cheapest in the southern parts of the state, especially areas that border Illinois.
