Safe And Reliable Downers Grove Car Shipping Services By A-1 Auto Transport

Downers Grove is located around 20 miles from the Loop, which was named after Pierce Downer who founded it in 1832. However, it was 1873 when it was officially considered as a village. The population grew when railroad was built across it. Today, it had been a popular area for people who do not want the chaos of Downtown Chicago, yet situated in a near enough place for their place of work. In the 2014 census, the population of the village was 49,715.

Shipping Your Auto to Downers Grove, IL

Before shipping a car, check with your insurance provider. Your policy might not cover any damage during transport. Then, ask the auto transport company what kind of insurance they can provide once they will deliver your car to Downers Grove. Unfortunately, some companies offer liability insurance only.

In choosing a tracking partner, it should be noted that the whole industry has a very good track record when it comes to shipping cars. Over the years, the number of cars damaged while in transit did not even hit double figures, which is impressive when you take into account the millions of car owners that have availed of their service. Nevertheless, it won't hurt to be over-prepared.

However, insurance should not only be your consideration. Once you got that out of the way, the rest of the process is really quite simple. You need to inform the contractor of the model of your car and its weight. You can read your manual or research online for this. The weight will be one of the major determining factors on the total shipment cost. This is also the reason why you should not send your vehicle on a full tank of gas.

Take out all the items inside the car that may be displaced. Remove your spoilers, fog lights and any other modifications which could be damaged in transit. Finally, take photos of your car before and after shipment. If there’s any new dent or scratch, file a claim accordingly.

Satisfied Customers

“I am meticulous when it comes to everything. At first, I was thinking of just driving all the way to Illinois from New Jersey. A friend recommended me to go to A1 Auto Transport and told me a lot of good things about them. I refused initially because I had filed a 4 day leave just to drive and visit my mother. But things did not go well. My boss asked me to cancel my leave because a very important client asked for an urgent meeting, and the manager could not attend to it. I was hopeless and took the risk of asking help from A1. The notice was short and I forgot I needed to inform them in advance. After a couple of hours, I received a call and they told me they found a way to book me with no extra fees. I am so thankful I got to attend to my work matters. I did not get to see my mother, but the vehicle and items inside it were in perfect condition as if it was me who took care of it. I owe you guys big time! I got one huge deal from our client.”

“It’s been a few months now since I’ve moved to Florida from Illinois after my career took a nice turn. I had to relocate for a new job, and let me tell you, moving isn’t my favourite thing in the world. All the planning and packing and calling people up to help you move a mountain of personal stuff across states have me doubting my capacity as an adult to handle pressure and endure stress. I don’t think anyone like me with a busy enough life juggling university and a demanding career would ever say moving is an exciting activity. That’s why I’ll be forever thankful to A1 Auto Transport for making my life a hell of a lot easier during the move. I’d never had to worry about rearranging my schedule because of some hang-ups or delays, or getting screwed over for a costly service that damaged both my pocket and my car. It made me think of all those horror stories of people who ran into some bad luck with transporters damaging their most prized possessions after waiting for days on end with hundreds of dollars wasted. I felt really relieved that I didn’t become one of those people when I opted to go with A1 Auto Transport. Along with relocating to Florida for a cool job offer, working with A1 was probably one of the best decisions I’ve made.”

“For one reason or another, shipping a car between states makes me a bit worried. Using another company prior to A1 Auto Transport which left a huge scratch on my car didn’t help ease my trust issues either. The quote Joe gave me wasn’t the lowest on my list (I did a ton of research this time), but I was less interested in getting a deal as I was in getting my car to Illinois safely. I paid a deposit after he picked up my car. By that point, it was in his hands. I was glad he called so much during transport. He must’ve felt I was stressed out by the whole experience. Fortunately, my worries were for nothing. This company pulled through and brought my car as I left it. Thank you Joe!”

“I would just like to thank you for an excellent job in moving my car cross country. I will be using you again in the future, and have recommended you to others that will be moving cars shortly. Once again it was a pleasure to do business with you, and thanks again.”

“Nataly, I hadn't had a chance to respond, sooner, as I would've hoped. My experience was GREAT! I got my car at the estimated time with no issues at all. The driver who picked up my car was also the same, and very kind. He hadn't had alot of sleep, but he was still very pleasant. The pick-up location was easy to find and they were professional. Constant contact was kept with me to let me know when my car had arrived in Texas and when it would be ready for pick up. It was the first time I've ever had to ship a car...in the past I've just driven. I've driven LA to Texas enough times that I could probably drive it with my eyes closed. I will also take the time to post a testimonial on your website because my experience was that great! Thanks for asking and have a fabulous rest of the day! Kim ~change is good...progress is better~”
