What Is The Cheapest Way To Shift?

The cheapest way to ship a vehicle from California to Nevada is by opting for an open carrier. Your vehicle will be transported in a truck or trailer with an exposed truck bed. It is cheaper than using an enclosed vehicle to transport cars.

While the vehicle is exposed to the weather, it is still a secure means of transportation of vehicles. This is particularly true in this route because the weather isn’t extreme between California and Nevada.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I need to delay the pickup of my vehicle for a few days? Can my car stay at my location until the carrier arrives, and will there be extra costs?

You can keep your vehicle parked at your home or another approved location until the carrier arrives. It is important to ensure the vehicle is in a secure and accessible spot so the driver can load it without issues. Make sure the car is ready for transport with a clean interior, about a quarter to half tank of fuel, and no loose items inside.

Delaying pickup beyond the scheduled window may result in a change to the quoted price. Rescheduling or waiting for the carrier can sometimes add fees. The vehicle owner is responsible for any parking or storage costs during this waiting period. Insurance coverage typically begins when the car is loaded onto the transport trailer, so check with the carrier if your car will be unattended for several days. For longer delays, consider adjusting the pickup date or arranging a terminal drop-off, which can help avoid additional costs.
