Auto Moving

Your only big challenge is selecting the right firm. First, you must ensure your chosen agency is licensed, insured, and bonded.

Before trusting a company with your auto, spare some time to research them. Find answers to these essential questions:

Is The Moving Firm Licensed, Insured, and Bonded?

Before you engage any agency, ensure they are registered with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). The federal agency governs the industry in the US, so you will get all the information you might need about companies. Ask the corporation for the US DOT number, check its validity at the FMCSA website, and check if they are bonded with the Department of Transportation (DOT).

A firm should have valid insurance coverage enough for their shipments. Take your time to check the extent of a company’s insurance policy. Some haulers insert damaging clauses into the insurance policy to make it difficult for customers to receive total compensation.

What Do Previous Customers Think About the Firm?

Once you have verified that the corporation has all the required licenses and a clear insurance policy, the next important question is what customers think of their services. Apart from the reviews on the company website, you can also utilize websites like Google, Yelp, and any other legitimate review website and check the rating of the firm at the Better Business Bureau (BBB).

A reputable hauling will have numerous customers say nothing but good about its services, and you shouldn’t struggle to find customer reviews about it. Most importantly, it should have an A rating at the Better Business Bureau.

A few dissatisfied customers are normal for any agency. The most important thing is to check how the corporation responds to the few unhappy customers. And if they don’t, it means the company does not care about the welfare of customers.

How Long Has the Corporation Been Moving?

A newly formed moving may lack the proper facilities and knowledge compared to one in business for decades. An experienced company has learned how to deal with different challenges and is better placed to deliver to your desired destination on time and damage-free. In addition, they have more experienced drivers who better understand the safest and shortest routes to your destination.

This is why checking how long the company has been in the market is essential before committing. We advise you to go for a hauler that has been in business for over ten years.

What Services Are Offered by The Agency?

services vary from one hauler to another. So, you have to ensure the firm you want to hire offers the kind of services you’re looking for. In most cases, you can choose between open and enclosed delivery and door-to-door and terminal-terminal-terminal service.

Open Hauling

The carrier trucks used in this option are uncovered on the sides and top. Most open-air carrier trucks come with two layers and can haul eight to ten cars. It’s one of the most affordable ways of moving. Plus, they are readily available; you will hardly drive for long without encountering an open-air truck on the highway. Its only challenge is that cars are exposed to the outside environment during shipping.

Enclosed Method

The enclosed option is a good choice if the automobile you want to be moved is vulnerable to harsh weather conditions or road debris. It is safer than enclosed transport but will cost you about 60% more than you would have spent to move with an open carrier. Enclosed carrier trucks are often used to haul luxury and expensive automobiles.

Door-To-Door Service

Your car is picked from your location of choice and delivered to your desired destination. The pickup and drop off locations can be your home, office or nearest town center. If the location or destination is accessible to the auto carrier truck and you’re tied up, this service is a good option.

Terminal-To-Terminal Service

The service will require you to drop off and pick it up from predetermined locations. It does not offer the same convenience as the door-to-door service but will save you money. Hauler companies have terminuses where vehicles awaiting drop off or pickup are stored. Ensure to do due diligence about these terminuses before you select this delivery service.

Do They Have Any Available Slots?

There are seasons, especially summer when firms are overly busy. During such times, getting a slot is not easy. So, you must ensure the agency can accommodate your needs when you want your vehicle moved.

The busiest times for moving are during summer and major holidays. You may not only struggle to find a company to haul during this period, but prices will be higher.
