Minimize Your Shipping Costs at RockAuto.com!

RockAuto.com offers reliably low prices on auto parts for both your daily driver and classic, 24 hours a day! Unlike companies who mark up prices to cover "free" shipping, RockAuto offers reliably low prices, and adds only the actual cost of delivering your order to you.

We sell over a million different parts, and a single warehouse cannot hold them all. If you choose parts which are not stocked in the same place, carriers will charge for two shipments. Two ways to minimize shipping charges are:

1. Watch for Truck Icons next to parts in the online catalog -- they indicate parts which can ship from the same warehouse as parts already in your shopping cart.
2. Use our "Choose for Me to Minimize Cost" tool -- which lets you say "any one of these parts would be OK" and then automatically chooses the lowest total cost (part + shipping).

Learn more about these and other unique features of our catalog on our Help with Placing an Order page!

That's good info. I always pay attention to that.

Sadly if you only need one part rarely do I find the best overall price once shipping is added through Rock Auto, for small or single items it's almost always more cost effective to buy local or via Amazon, even though Rock Auto almost always has the better initial price.

Example: needed a new cowl seal, $20.79 + $9.99 shipping = $30.78 @ RA, $27.56 delivered (on Sunday) via Amazon. If I'm buying a lot of things thought Rock Auto is the way to go, just wish individual item shipping was less.

Ordered some Powerstop Z36 brake pads from RA and they were way cheaper than Amazon, however the shipping was slower.
