If you have a collector car or really expensive automobile, then we recommend shipping it in an Enclosed Trailer. Expect to pay about 30% more for an Enclosed transport.

We usually need a 1-3 day window for picking up vehicles. It all depends on where your vehicle is located. During the winter season there may be some delays, it all depends on location.

We do not recommend putting stuff inside the vehicle. As a courtesy, you may be able to put up to 100 lbs. in the trunk. Please make sure it is discreet and not visible from outside. If you exceed the weight limit and fully load the vehicle, the drivers can charge you extra. Some drivers will accept a tip ($50-$250) for hauling extra stuff, but some won’t.

If you find damage…

1. Take a photo of the damage, ideally from an angle similar to a photo taken prior to shipping your vehicle.

2. Along with the transporter, document the damage in the Bill of Lading. Most forms will have a detailed diagram so the part of the car damaged during shipping can be noted accurately.

3. Notify the shipping coordinator of the damages, if they aren’t available at the time please email us all the details along with documents and pictures.

4. Visit your mechanic to obtain an estimate for repairing the damages. Get a written or email copy to provide to the shipping company.

5. Contact your insurance company and Provide photos and repair estimate. They will need both to submit to the transporters insurance company to secure payment for the repairs. If you require a rental vehicle in the meantime due to significant damage, keep all receipts.

Hint: Upon arrival, inspect your vehicle thoroughly. When your car arrives at the final destination, check for any damage with a shipping company representative to see if you notice anything that indicates there has been damaged since the pre-shipping inspection. Be sure to look at the roof and undercarriage. After you sign the Bill of Lading stating that your car is received, your mover will prepare a statement of the vehicle’s condition for you both to sign. Read it carefully and be sure you know what you’re signing. If you disagree with any of the statements or details, ask for a correction.

Now days, there are electronic certified funds available (Venmo, Zelle, CashApp). Please speak to the driver regarding the best way to pay at delivery.
