Using Vehicle Carriage Businesses
Overview - This is a basic breakdown of car shipping from beginning to end. They will arrange to pick up your vehicle after choosing a company (see below). Most shippers will require that the vehicle be cleaned inside and out and that any personal belongings be removed. Before loading your car onto the carrier, the driver will review its condition and note any damages, which you will be asked to sign off on. You should receive a copy of the bill of lading, which includes this information and the delivery details. When your vehicle arrives, either at a shipping terminal or a specific location, you will again have the condition of the car reviewed and be asked to sign for the shipment. Please review the information carefully since it is the main document used to resolve complaints within the industry.

Options - There are two delivery options in the auto conveyance business and two (primary) haulage methods, which we will review here. As mentioned in the overview, you can have a vehicle shipped to a terminal, where you have to pick it then up, or you can have it delivered directly to your door or to a specific address. Direct delivery will typically cost more than shipping a car to a terminal. (If you need temporary storage, that can also be arranged at a moving terminal.) As far as the method of transport, you can choose between an open-air carrier, which hauls several cars at a time, or an enclosed carrier that offers more protection and only moves one or a couple of vehicles at once. Enclosed carriers are usually the preferred option for a door-to-door shipment since they are smaller and easier to navigate on city streets.
Choosing A Company - With an understanding of your options, it’s time to start searching for companies. This has been made very easy since most car shippers have a website that offers the customer price estimates at no charge (you can find our quick quote form on the top right of this page). With just some basic research and a minimal time investment, you can easily get a handful of price quotes and compare the services offered by price, convenience, location, and options. Be wary of any estimates that require a contract or payment upfront. The industry standard is to offer free estimates, and the more experienced companies will be better able to give you an accurate price quote. We recommend customers collect three to five cost estimates before deciding which company to work with. This way, you’ll get a good idea of the price range and determine which company offers the service that best fits your needs.
