Areas We Serve

One of the reasons behind our large clientele is the extensive scope of our service. We rely on our knowledge of the city's profile and state-of-the-art GPS navigation systems when making our way to addresses across the region when moving. We also stretch our reach to the neighboring cities and towns, including San Francisco Bay Area, Oakland, and San Jose.

Services We Provide

  • Open carrier services: Open carrying are long hauls that come with flatbed racks. We use straps to secure it onboard the racks them as they are. The autos are left slightly exposed to the external environment. They, however, are not exposed to damage as drivers are instructed not to haul under adverse weather conditions like hail. They are also instructed to avoid roads with low-hanging tree branches as these may damage them. Should the client wish, they have the option of using shrink wrapping to keep rain and dust off.
  • Enclosed carriers: These come with an enclosed container that houses them during hauling. The container provides extra protection from external elements like extreme weather conditions, twigs, and small rocks from the road. Additionally, the container offers privacy, making it the best option for moving high-end autos. The advantages of using an enclosed carrying, however, come at a much higher price compared to using an open carrier.

Types of Autos We Haul

As one of the leading companies, our service mix is tailored to the profile of all types of autos that we ship. These include trucks, vans, motorcycles, high-end, salvaged, inoperable, electric, hybrid, alternative fuel cars, ATVs, RVs & motorhomes, sedans, SUVs, jet skis, heavy equipment like tractors and boats of all sizes.

How to Prepare For Hauling

  • Perform a maintenance check: A thorough maintenance check involves identifying any fluid leaks, fixing them, and, thereafter, filling the fluids up to their recommended levels. Additionally, check the battery life and have it charged if need be. Also, ensure the tires have enough pressure. All this is done to ensure it does not run into mechanical issues during moving.
  • Remove all personal items from it: It is prohibited to have individual items like clothing, electronics, appliances, etc., when having them hauled. Ensure you remove all of them, including all aftermarket installations like GPS navigation services and DVD players. These, are not covered under the in-transit insurance policy. Additionally, please remove all unnecessary heavy items in the trunk, as these make it heavier. A heavier auto attracts a higher fee.
  • Wash it: Washing makes it easier for the driver to inspect a hauler. The inspection identifies all pre-existing damage, which is recorded in a comprehensive report. Minor details, like a scratch on the paint job, may get obscured if they are dirty.
  • Take photos!: The hauler's inspection report is the driver's findings of its condition before moving. It is advisable to take clear pictures of every side of it. These act as your record of the auto's condition before delivery. You can later compare these with the hauler's inspection report.
  • Leave about a quarter-full tank of gas: The car only needs enough gas to cover the loading and offloading. A quarter-full tank of gas covers such movement without adding to its weight, like a full gas tank would.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Dublin, CA car shipping cost?

As of September 16, 2026, Dublin, CA car shipping for a standard running car on open transport commonly falls around $500-$900 for regional trips, $900-$1,300 for medium-distance moves, and $1,400-$1,900 cross-country. These bands synthesize current Dublin and California market estimates rather than treating one route as typical. Vehicle size, operability, trailer type, season, and pickup access can move a quote outside the range. A1's car shipping rates guide explains the main pricing inputs.

How long does it take to ship a car from Dublin, CA?

Loaded transit from Dublin usually takes 1-3 days for regional California routes, 3-6 days for roughly 500-1,500 miles, and 7-10 days cross-country. These are travel windows after pickup; carrier assignment and pickup scheduling happen beforehand. Dublin-to-Los Angeles shipments generally sit near the short end, while East Coast routes require the longest window. Traffic, weather, multi-stop routing, and driver-hours limits can extend delivery, so transit dates should be treated as estimates rather than guarantees.

Is door-to-door car transport available in Dublin?

Yes, door-to-door car transport is available in Dublin, with pickup and delivery as close to your address as a large carrier can safely and legally reach. Dublin sits at the crossroads of I-580 and I-680, giving carriers convenient access to major Bay Area routes, although the exact loading point still has to accommodate the truck. If the address is unsuitable, the driver can arrange a nearby legal meeting point on a wider street or parking area. A1's door-to-door auto transport service explains the process.

What is the cheapest way to transport a car from Dublin?

The cheapest practical way to ship a standard car from Dublin is usually open transport with a flexible pickup window. Open carriers move several vehicles at once and are more widely available than enclosed trailers, which generally keeps the price lower. You can also avoid some premiums by skipping urgent pickup requirements and using an accessible pickup location when necessary. For a normal running sedan, open transport is typically the budget choice unless the vehicle needs the extra protection of an enclosed trailer.

Do I need enclosed transport for my car in Dublin?

You usually do not need enclosed transport for an everyday commuter car in Dublin; it is most useful for classic, exotic, luxury, high-value, or custom-finish vehicles. Enclosed trailers reduce exposure to rain, road debris, and public view during transport, while open carriers work well for most standard vehicles. Enclosed service generally costs more because trailer capacity is lower and the equipment is more specialized. A1's enclosed auto transport options explain when that added protection may justify the additional cost.

How do I prepare my car for transport from Dublin?

Prepare a car for shipping from Dublin by cleaning it, photographing its condition, removing personal belongings, and leaving about one-quarter tank of fuel. Make sure the vehicle can roll, steer, brake, and start unless you booked it as inoperable, and tell the carrier about leaks or mechanical problems before pickup. Remove loose exterior accessories and disable the alarm when possible. At pickup, review the condition report with the driver before the vehicle is loaded.
