Using Caribou Auto Shipping Services
If you are planning to have a vehicle shipped to Caribou keep the following information in mind when you are making your transport plans:
- Bundle services when possible. In general, auto transporters cannot relocate household goods, but there are many companies that are licensed and insured for both household moves as well as auto transport. If you can find a company that can do both it can save quite a bit of money as well as time.
- Terminal to terminal shipping is the least expensive way to have a motor vehicle shipped. This can take some extra time, however, and if you will need to have the vehicle delivered as fast as possible you may want to use door to door shipping instead. Door to door will cost more than terminal to terminal but it is the fastest way to have a car delivered.
- Use online sources to get transport reviews so you can see how well, or even how poorly, a company performs. When you look for reviews online, however, you need to stay away from websites that charge companies to be listed on the site as there may be some not quite so true reviews listed on the page. You need to be careful when reading reviews and try not to take one harsh review and judge based solely on that one review. A great thing about reviews online is you can often see how a company has responded to the reviewer and even a bad review can quite often show how professional a company is and how they treat their customers with the response they provide.
