How to Prepare Your Car for Shipping to Lewistown

If you’re moving to Lewistown especially in winter, you must lessen the future problems that come along with the possible problems that may arise. Lewistown has a cold winter season which is long and severe in most of the time. To provide fewer problems to the auto shipping company, you must do your part by preparing your car first.

Clean and Declutter the Interior and Exterior of Your Car

It is important to clean your car and remove all the stuff that are not a permanent part of the car. It includes the antenna, spoilers, and the like. Remove the stuff that you put inside your car like the deodorizer, bins, rugs, gadgets, and the like.

The company will not be responsible for any loss of these things during the shipment process. The insurance covers only the car and not the unnecessary things that can be found in it.

Inspect Your Car for Any Damage

It is advisable to take pictures of your car at any angles so that you’ll have proof of its former state. Inspect for dents and scratches that are already there before handing the car to the auto transport company.

Check and Fix the Car for Any Leakage

A leaking fluid is dangerous not just for the other customers’ car if you’re using the open air transport service, but also for the safety of the driver.

Remove the Contents of the Gas Tank

Before emptying the gas tank, it is important to ask the company about this first. There are companies who don’t want you to remove the contents of the gas tank but leave not more than ¼ of it. It is because the remaining fuel will be used for driving your car to be delivered to you.

A-1 Auto Transport strictly reminds their customers about preparing their car. Negligence about this matter will slow down the delivery, adds cost of payment to the customers, and endangers the safety of the other vehicles and people.

For this reason, the customer must seek full compliance on this matter. On the other hand, here are the lists of services that A-1 Auto Transport offers:

Enclosed auto transport
RV transport
Door to door shipping
Military vehicle transport
International car shipping
Motorcycle shipping services
Boat shipping
Freight shipping
Classic car transport
ATV shipping

Delivering vehicles in Lewistown can cause problems to the carrier especially during the winter season. For this reason, you should do your part in helping the carrier by preparing your car. Moreover, if you’re choosing the best auto transport company, choose the one that is people-oriented like A-1 Auto Transport. A-1 Auto Transport considers the safety of the belongings of their customers and their staff.

Satisfied Customers

“For the most part, I felt they are responsive to their clients. I read reviews and was not disappointed about the quality of service they provided. I did not get to check on every single detail of my vehicle but I think they are impressive when it comes to timeliness. I am a working student and just received the Volvo sedan as a surprise gift from my parents. They got it to Montana 2 days earlier than expected. Even if this was just an exception to the rule, it’s still pretty impressive. If they always deliver this way, they must be among the best in the industry.”

“The first time I used A1 Auto Transport was when I had to get an Audi to Louisiana from New York. I had no problem with the communication. It went smoothly. Every question I had was answered on the sport, with no beating around the bush and thoroughly. At first, I wasn’t sure if I should call Joe, so we communicated over text and email until I built up the courage. Even then, he would reply to my questions almost immediately. He sent one of his trucks to my home. It arrived in just 2 days, and the driver was just as professional. Joe also dropped by to make sure everything went smoothly. He encouraged me to call him whenever I needed, which I did, perhaps a bit too often. The driver also stayed in touch, sending me regular updates on the shipment’s progress. They allowed me to choose the location for the drop off, so I didn’t have to travel at all to pick it up. My car was in perfect condition, and it’s all thanks to their team effort. As far as customer experience goes, this is some of the best I’ve ever had.”

Great customer experience

“Not sure what to do? Then, definitely go for A1 Auto Transport. I tried over 15 transportation companies and brokers to get my car going to New Mexico. I wasn’t exactly a pro at this, so yea, I was skeptical. It tempted me to avoid A1 Auto Transport to save some cash, but after I found out what that brought some of my friends, I chose otherwise. I trusted my instinct, and I was right! It should have taken about 3 days for my car to be picked up according to the contract, but they were at my doorstep after just 1. My Honda was also supposed to arrive in New Mexico in about 10 days, and I got it in 8. Kudos to the driver! He updated us all the time and always answered the phone. Great service!”

I trusted my instinct, and I was right!

“Mark, Thanks for your prompt reply and for the opportunity to present feedback. Lessons learned can be a powerfull tool when used correctly and judiciously. After purchasing my vehicle on Ebay, I Googled "auto transport" and began to look at several different choices. This is where my comments on A-1 begin: Webpage - 5 Star Rating - Your page was straight forward and simple to use. I was able to read customer comments (which is important to most consumers) and I was able to request an online quote. (not a feature offered by everyone) Quote - 5 Star Rating - Kudos to whoever is involved in developing your pricing structure. Very competitive. With three children in university at the same time, and an exwife with a good attorney, I have to be financially prudent. This was the largest single factor for my decision, followed closely by your customer feedback. Customer Service / Contracting & Payment - 5 Star Rating - Once I had determined to accept your offer, I decided to do it by phone. The process was quick, courteous, and professional. This was done on 03/04. Tracking # and GPS - 5 Star rating - Shortly after contracting and paying I received my tracking #. What a great use of leading edge technology. Very powerfull tool. (I am sure that this has helped cut down on the number of "nuisance" calls that you receive) Customer Service / Questions & Updates - 1 Star Rating - I am by nature a patient person, and am more than cognizant of outside influences on "schedule slip", so when it was determined that it would take longer than the original estimate of 10 - 14 days, I was not worried or upset. I had done my homework, had contracted a reputable company, and simply accepted the fact that it would take longer, no big deal. The ETD listed on the tracking page was 03/28. Early ( I am usually in the office by 05:30) that morning I could see that my vehicle was in Baytown, Tx., which is a suburb of Houston, Southeast of my home by approximately 20 miles. I knew that the tracking page noted that I would be notified 12 - 24 hours in advance of delivery. My problem was that I had scheduled meetings for most of the day and simply wanted to find out if I could get a bit more precise estimate of delivery time. I phoned that morning and the operator was quite courteous, but informed me "due to the high volume of calls, all customer service reps were busy", could I please call back. I called back a couple of hours later and was informed that "due to the high volume of calls, all customer service reps are busy", could I please call back in the afternoon. That afternoon, I called on two different occasions, with the same response (very polite), and on the last call was asked if I could call back in the morning. A little frustrating, but not the end of the world. We are now past the extended ETD. The next morning (03/29 - my vehicle had moved to the very edge of the city and very close to my office) I called and was informed that "due to the high volume''''''...). I told the operator that I would really prefer to just be put on hold and I would wait my turn, and she politely agreed to do so. During the next 30 minutes, she came back twice to politely check on me, which I found reassuring. I was feeling good about getting through right up to the point of being cut off. After being on hold for that length of time, no one wants to be cut off. Now I am a little frustrated. At this point I went online and sent a polite email to customer service, explaining my situation and frustration. The page noted that my mail would be answered within four hours, and by then it was lunch time, so I really thought I would not see my car on 03/29 either, if the 12-24 rule really applied. Customer Service / E-mail - 5 Star Rating - In less than an hour I had an e-mail back from Mark apoligizing for the confusion and promising find out what was happening. Before I could respond to the e-mail, Kevin called and asked if it would be possible to deliver my vehicle that afternoon. Customer Service / Delivery - 5 Star Rating - Within 5 hours of being contacted by phone my vehicle was dropped in front of my house. I was notified not only that the delivery would be made, but also when the driver got close to the house. Very courteous and professional. Customer Service / Post Delivery - 5 Star Rating - Mark has followed up with e-mails and a phone call to make sure that the matter had been resolved and even asked for feedback. (This last item is something that all good companies want, regardless if it is good, bad, or ugly) In summary, I am quite pleased with my overall experience with A-1 and will use you again. I would like to note that if the customer service agents are truly that busy, it is not the operators fault. I know very little about your industry, and don't know if this is a seasonal thing or what. I can only think of two ways to mitigate this problem. 1) Advise all clients that all communication post-contract will be through e-mail (less than an attractive option) or, 2) hire more customer service reps. (this is also a signal that business is good'''''smile). Thanks for your time and attention.”

“I had to leave Tennessee due to my school and could really use my car. I wasn’t sure about shipping it, so I was quite nervous. I searched for a company for almost a week before I finally found A1 Auto Transport. It seemed to have to greatest number of happy customers, so I felt I could trust them. Joe helped a lot with setting up the transport, contacting me and keeping me informed all the way. The delivery date was set on Monday, but I really wanted it to arrive on Sunday, so I may use it to commute. After telling the driver my situation, he was super ok in that he managed to get my car on Sunday evening. Superb customer service if I’ve ever seen one! I definitely got what I paid for. The pickup was done on time, my car arrived on time, the staff was super attentive, I loved the customer service, and my car arrived intact. I’m extremely happy with the service I got and will recommend it to everyone I can. Thanks a ton!”

Thanks a ton!
