Moving Tips
Auto Transport FAQ
Auto shipping FAQ
What kind of advance notice do most auto shippers require?

Most car transporters will try to be flexible and accommodating but your best bet is no less than 7 days and no more than 30.

Do Car Movers include insurance in their estimates?

Most vehicle transporters include some insurance in their basic price but you should inquire about how much it is and if they offer more insurance at a higher price. You may be able to get insurance separately as well.

What about shipping very expensive cars and classic cars?

Many Auto shippers and car transporters provide enclosed trailers as an extra service to protect cars from the elements.

Does my car have to be in working condition?

It varies. Some auto transporters offer to move cars aren’t running, others do not. Make sure the car shippers you communicate with know the condition of your vehicle.

Will the car transport companies deliver my car door to door?

Most will, yes but that might cost extra. You may save money if you are able to bring it to their terminals near the “from” and “to” locations.

Can I ship more than one car?

Yes. In fact, many car shippers will actually have your car(s) on trailers with up to 8 to 10 other cars for at least part of the way.

Do auto transporters also ship motorcycles?

Many car shippers do ship motorcycles as well.

Will I be charged by size?

Most likely transporting large SUV’s will cost extra. Some SUV’s are so large that they equal the weight and size of two cars!

Do I have to be present at the pick up and delivery?

Many auto transport companies will require that either you or someone designated by you be present to go through an inspection and sign off the vehicles condition.
