Safe And Reliable Buffalo Car Shipping Services By A-1 Auto Transport
The second most populated city in the state of New York, Buffalo is in the western half of the state and situated on one of the major Great Lakes: Lake Erie. There are more than a quarter million people living in the city limits and more than a million living in the metro area, that includes Cattaraugus and Niagra. Major economic impacts in the area in Buffalo come from health care and education, in part because of the presence of the University at Buffalo and in part because of the large Buffalo Niagra Medical Center.

Using Buffalo Vehicle Transport Companies
Ahead of making a trek to Buffalo, you might plan ahead a bit with some sage advice on transporting a vehicle:
- Determine how you want to pick up your vehicle: If you are willing to pony up a bit of extra money, then you can have your vehicle delivered; otherwise, plan to pick it up upon arrival to avoid incurring charges for storage.
- Document everything and make copies: Get everything in writing and keep copies of anything you sign. This ensures that you have back-up in the event that there is a disagreement with the company.
- Ask questions about anything about which you are unclear: You should never proceed with any service contract without being fully informed of the scope of the service offerings, and transport is no exception. Make sure you understand what you are signing on your contract and ask questions if you need any clarification.

Over long distances, auto transport companies are the most qualified to ship vehicles safely. By keeping your car immobile on a trailer, it does not accumulate structural damage or mileage.

Our company can relieve you of the need to research the road, find accommodation/food, and actually drive the car across hundreds of miles.
The price is similar if not lower when using our services. So, there are no downsides you must worry about. In the rare case your car gets scratched during the journey, you can recover your losses through the insurance policy afforded by the company.

Cheap Transportation Options in Buffalo
A1 auto transport is concerned about the needs of every client. For most of them, price is a big concern. Not even the most exquisite service will convince a customer to go way out of his budget just to transport a car.
To make sure you get a price you can afford, we've cut down on unnecessary expenses and doubled down on our open carrier fleet. These trucks are resilient, but most of all big, allowing us to transport numerous cars without asking for an overly high price to compensate for fuel costs.
Auto Transport Safety Measures in Buffalo
If you're moving your car along with 10 others, most likely it will have to be unloaded several times during the trip to make way for other vehicles that have arrived at their destinations. However, this movement can be dangerous. If your car hits the sides of the truck, you'll notice nasty scratches when getting it back.
If you want to prevent this risk, A1 auto transport recommends using an enclosed auto carrier. These trucks can ship up to 6 cars at a time, but you can request a single car transport too. If the truck and driver are dedicated solely to your project, they won't take unnecessary detours. You’ll receive your car faster and minimize the risks it's exposed to significantly.
