Calico Rock Car Shipping Tips

The cost of shipping should never deter you from hiring a professional to transport your vehicle for you. A professional auto transporter will not only save you much needed time as well as energy but in the long-run, they can actually save you much needed money when a professional driver is moving the car for you instead of you driving it on your own. You can use the following tips when you need to have a vehicle relocated to a new city or state:

• Do Your Research - Proper research is very important when you are looking for a company that can be trusted to handle the shipment of your vehicle. Check on websites such as the Better Business Bureau as well as sites that cater to customers looking for information about auto transport. Carefully scan through customer reviews and be sure to keep in mind that even the best businesses will occasionally have a customer complaint. You can often tell what type of character a company has by the response they leave on customer reviews, even negative reviews. Check with at least five companies before you make a decision on the one to hire.

• Cost of Auto Transport - Auto Transport rates will vary from one company to the next, but most quality companies will have rates that are very comparable to others in their industry. If you locate a company that offers a seriously low rate to transport the vehicle, you may want to back away from that particular company as they are usually trying to bring in new customers and will often add far more charges once the customer hires them. They also may not be able to locate a driver that will work for the low rate they offered a customer and this means that your vehicle may end up sitting for weeks, or even months, waiting for a driver that will never arrive. The best companies will be straightforward with rates and the rates are going to be competitive with others in the business. The cost is a combination of the weight of the car and the total travel miles of transport as well as the type of transport that will be used.

• Preparing Your Car - Preparing your car for auto transport is very important when it comes to cost as well as overall vehicle safety during transport.  Vehicles should be clean and all items that are not considered a permanent part of the car should be removed. Items such as paperwork in the glovebox, GPS and Radar detectors and other non-partial items need to be taken out. The car alarm needs to be deactivated before the car is loaded and the fuel should not be fuller than a quarter tank. Any item that is not absolutely necessary should be removed to reduce the weight of the car. Items such as spare seats, antennas, spoilers, ground effects, non-welded tool boxes and other items that you will not need at the new location or that can be moved via a moving truck should be taken off the car before it is loaded for delivery.
