Simple Steps for a Smooth Shipping Experience
Shipping your vehicle is a convenient way to relocate, purchase a car from another state, or transport a vehicle over long distances. Proper preparation helps ensure a smooth pickup and delivery process while protecting your vehicle during transit.
Clean Your Vehicle
Before your scheduled pickup, wash your vehicle inside and out. A clean vehicle makes it easier to inspect and document any existing scratches, dents, or cosmetic imperfections before transport begins.
Remove Personal Belongings
Most carriers recommend removing personal items from the vehicle. Excess belongings can add weight, create safety concerns, and may not be covered by carrier insurance during transport.
Check Fluids and Battery
Ensure your vehicle is in good operating condition by checking fluid levels, tire pressure, and battery charge. If your vehicle has any mechanical issues, notify your transport coordinator in advance.
Leave a Quarter Tank of Fuel
A full tank is unnecessary for transport. Keeping approximately one-quarter tank of fuel provides enough fuel for loading and unloading while reducing overall vehicle weight.
Document Vehicle Condition
Take clear photos of your vehicle from multiple angles before pickup. These photos provide a helpful record of the vehicle’s condition before transportation.
Choose the Right Transport Option
Whether you select Open Auto Transport for affordability or Enclosed Auto Transport for additional protection, choosing the right shipping method ensures your vehicle receives the level of care it deserves.
