• Less-than-truckload (LTL): This is the default option for load that does not fill up an entire freight truck. We offer reasonable prices depending on the size of the load.
• Truckload (TL): This option is recommended when shipping extremely large load or delicate load. We reserve an entire truck for such loads.
• Intermodal freight: This option is best for those shipping load internationally. The load is shipped inside an intermodal container, which makes it easy to transport the load across different means of transportation. For instance, from a cargo ship to a long haul.

How to prepare your car for shipping

• Remove all items deemed ‘household’ from the car. Also remove any aftermarket installations like DVD players and external speakers to save them from loss or damage.
• Have the car thoroughly washed before the day of shipping. This facilitates an accurate car hauler’s inspection report.
• Leave about a quarter-full tank of gas to cover the loading and offloading of the car.
• Locate your spare car keys or have a set made for the driver.
• Disable the car alarm to avoid inconveniencing other road users and to avoid battery drain.
• Perform a car maintenance check by ensuring all fluids are filled to their respective levels, there are no leaks present and that the car battery is sufficiently charged.
• Take clear photos of every side of the car and keep them as a record of the car’s condition before shipping.
• Confirm your contact details with the driver.
