How we ship
You can pick-up or deliver your car at one of the nearest auto shipping terminals in South Dakota. One benefit with this option is that you make tremendous savings on the delivery fee. Terminal shipping is ideal when you have enough time on your hands. Some of us can’t bear the thought of our cars going through crowded terminals. This becomes more troubling if the car is of a higher value. Other times, we don’t just have enough time on our hands. If you find yourself in such a situation, then door-to-door shipping is the solution. The service works just like the name implies. We will fetch the car and deliver it to your residence.
Shipping cars to or from Lake County on open trailers is easy on your pocket. These are the large trucks you will find on the roads transporting several cars in the open. The fact that it is low-cost makes it very popular with everyone, transporters included. A-1 Auto Transport values you car’s safety tremendously. Our dispatch teams take best care in handling and transporting your car. Open-air transportation limits the level of protection we give to your car. This becomes considerably challenging with highly expensive cars. You might have sleepless nights when your car is out on the roads, going through rough weather. We highly recommend that you choose enclosed transportation is such cases. We have equipped our enclosed trailers with modern equipment that guarantee more safety for your car.
Making a pre-shipment checklist
- Making a checklist creates a smooth flowing process when preparing to ship your car. Here are some of the things you should plan to do before shipping your car.
- Check the South Dakota DOT for regulations and requirements on shipping cars to or from Lake County.
- Check your car for mechanical problems. Additional fees apply for shipping inoperable cars. We will need extra tools and equipment to ship non-ops.
- If you’ve made any alterations from factory set-up, make a note of all these changes. Let the transporter know about the changes.
- Clean your car for inspection. A clean car increases the quality and accuracy of the inspection.
- Empty your car of all personal items. Take out everything else that did not originally come with the car. These include things like CD and DVD players.
- Your fuel tank should not go more than a quarter full (1/4). Keeping a low amount of fuel helps to prevent spillage and lowers your car’s weight.
- Check if the car runs properly. Refill all fluids, check the engine oil, battery and make sure that the tires are well inflated.
