autotransportarse

to transport oneself

Usage

A rare, mostly technical extension of transportarse and the noun autotransporte (motor freight/trucking, especially in Mexican and Argentine usage) — not a standardized or common everyday word, and easily replaced by plain transportarse or desplazarse in ordinary speech.

Examples
  • La empresa se autotransporta la mercancía en su propia flota de camiones.The company transports its own merchandise using its own fleet of trucks.
  • Prefiere autotransportarse en bicicleta antes que depender del autobús.He prefers to get around on his own by bicycle rather than depend on the bus.
