How to prepare your Vehicle for Transport?
Remove loose parts and lower antennas to prevent damage.
Repair tears to protect against air damage during transport.
Ensure antifreeze levels and a secure, leak-free battery.
Keep about ¼ tank of gas for safety and reduced weight.
Wash the vehicle for a precise pick-up inspection.
Open one window slightly to relieve pressure changes.
Do I Have to Be Present at Pick-Up and Destination Points?
You or your designated representative must be present at both sites. The transporter will not accept your vehicle without an authorized signature nor will he/she deliver the vehicle without an authorized signature on the Bill of Lading.
What Can I Pack in My Car?
Personal items are limited to a maximum of 100 pounds and must be packed in the trunk or cargo area of the vehicle(s). The Carrier’s insurance does not cover loss of your personal property and will not be responsible for any loss or damage.
Is My Quote for Door to Door Service?
Will My Vehicle Be Driven?
Your vehicle will only be driven on and off the Carrier. The mileage at pick up and delivery points will be annotated on your Bill of Lading by the transporter.
Will My Vehicle Remain on One Carrier?
Yes. All deliveries are scheduled from point to point with one Carrier.
What Kind of Truck Will Transport My Vehicle?
In most cases, your vehicle will be transported on an 8 or 10 car hauler, the same type used by auto manufacturers or local dealerships to transport new or used cars, unless an enclosed transport is requested.
Is My Vehicle Insured During Transport?
Yes. The Carrier insures your vehicle for the full market value during transport.
All services are door-to-door unless you specifically request otherwise. You are responsible for the accuracy of the pick up and delivery addresses. Door-to-Door means the transporter will get as close to your door as he/she can legally and safely. Many cities have restrictions on large trucks that prohibit them from driving into some residential areas. Transport trucks are enormous and need room to maneuver and turn around. So if access is impeded by narrow streets, low-hanging trees, speed bumps or tight turns, the transporter may ask that you meet the truck at a large nearby parking area.
