Cost for Hauling

To obtain your free quote, please call our toll-free number or fill out our contact form. Your quote includes an estimate of the cost and acts as a financial guideline for the transaction. Your price will be decided by the season, the size of the items being moved, and the distance traveled. Peak seasons impact rates and often raise prices. Furthermore, larger vehicle sizes command better rates than smaller cars. Longer distances are more expensive than shorter distances.

What Is the Distance and Estimated Time?

About 638 miles separate Maine from the beautiful state of Delaware. Moving between these locations usually takes 5 to 7 days. However, this timeline might be delayed due to unforeseen events such as bad weather and traffic congestion.

What Is the Cheapest Way?

A company is the most cost-effective option for hauling. There is a prevalent misconception that doing it yourself will save you money. You are merely endangering your vehicle by exposing it to the journey's dangers. It also puts a strain on your auto's engine and tires. As a result, the value and lifespan of your auto will be reduced. On the other hand, using a company's services will get the job done while maintaining the value of your car. It also ensures you are not caught off guard by unexpected expenses during the process.

Understanding Delivery Timelines and Potential Delays

While the estimated transit time for shipping a car from Delaware to Kansas is typically between 3 and 5 days, it's important to note that unforeseen circumstances can cause delays. Weather conditions, traffic congestion, and logistical issues can impact delivery schedules. Car shippers usually provide a delivery window rather than an exact date to accommodate these variables. If a delay occurs, reputable companies will inform you promptly and may offer compensation if the delay exceeds a certain threshold.

Preparing Your Vehicle for Transport

Proper preparation of your vehicle can facilitate a smoother shipping experience. Ensure that your car is clean inside and out to allow for accurate inspection before and after transport. Remove all personal items, as most carriers do not permit belongings inside the vehicle during transit. Additionally, maintaining only a quarter fuel tank to reduce weight, ensure safety, and check tire pressure, battery charge, and fluid levels can also prevent potential issues during loading and unloading.

Choosing the Right Shipping Method

Selecting between open and enclosed transport depends on your vehicle's value and your budget. Open transport is more cost-effective and is suitable for most vehicles, exposing them to weather and road conditions. Enclosed transport offers added protection from the elements and is ideal for luxury, classic, or high-value cars. While more expensive, enclosed carriers provide peace of mind for owners concerned about potential damage during transit.

We had our car shipped from Delaware to Maine, and while there were a few minor miscommunications about who was handling the order, the service itself was excellent.
