Potential Challenges and Solutions in Auto Shipping

Auto shipping comes with a lot of pressure, especially if it’s your first time shipping a car, and because of this, it is easy to make costly mistakes. Your vehicle is at stake, so it’s important to understand these challenges and how to deal with them.

Damage

The safety of your car is probably the biggest worry when shipping a car. You want your car to arrive at the destination in the best condition possible. Whereas auto shipping is largely a safe process, especially with an experienced transporter like A-1 Auto Trasport, you cannot rule out the possibility of damages resulting from weather, hurricanes, or earthquakes that may not be in the control of the auto transport company.

How To Deal with It?

First, you must choose a reputable auto transport company with a good accident record. Read the customer reviews to see what previous customers say about their services and ensure they have an ‘A’ rating at the Better Business Bureau. Most importantly, the insurance coverage provided by the hauler company should be equal to the value of your automobile.

Lastly, be precise with the inspection at the beginning and end of the journey. And if you notice any damages, ensure to raise the issue immediately with the carrier truck driver. The hauler company, through insurance, is responsible for any damages to the car during shipping. Nonetheless, the insurance cover does not include personal items on the vehicle.

Late Delivery

Delayed delivery is another common problem faced by most car owners. The transport company could do everything possible to ensure your vehicle arrives at the destination quickly. Still, factors like accidents, harsh weather conditions, mechanical issues, traffic jams or accidents could contribute to late delivery.

How To Deal with It?

Even though some delays are out of your control or that of the auto transport company, there are things you can do from your end to ensure your vehicle arrives at the destination within good time. First, choose a popular transporter that will not take too long to fill the carrier with vehicles moving in the same direction. Plus, such transporters have better experience dealing with legislation for different states. From your end, put all the required documentation right before the pickup date.

Even as you expect the transport company to pick up and deliver your vehicle within the shortest time possible, you must be aware that auto shipping is largely slow. In this case, make sure you book a slot with an auto transport company early as possible.

Mis-Presenting Your Needs

Not giving the right details about your vehicle is one of the biggest challenges during car shipment. Usually, you are required to provide the details of your needs on the quote form to help the hauler company project the cost and equipment needed. For instance, you could give the wrong weight, year of manufacture, condition, location or destination of the car to get a lower quote. Doing this could cause unnecessary delays since the transport company will have to re-evaluate the quote and reschedule the pickup date in the worst-case scenario.

How To Deal with It?

The only way to deal with this issue is to provide accurate information on the quote or when speaking with a representative of the auto transport company. Mostly, you will be asked to provide the type/model/condition of your car, location, and destination, your preferred auto carrier option (open or enclosed), and preferred delivery service (door-to-door or terminal-to-terminal service).

The purpose of the quote is to provide you with a rough estimate of the auto transport cost. Whereas the quote is not binding, it helps the auto transport company to put together the right equipment and manpower to facilitate the move.

Poor Communication and Misinformation

Last on our list are poor communication and misinformation. Spare a few minutes to call the auto transport company before you sign any agreement with them. If they are not friendly or do not answer your questions satisfactorily, do not expect any improvement in the future. A reputable transporter should have an active customer care team to provide poor communication with customers.

How To Deal with It?

To avoid the problem of poor communication, you need to find a carrier company with a good record of communication. You also must stay in contact with the auto transport company throughout the shipping process. Also, ensure you provide the right contacts and keep your phone on to avoid missing important updates from the shipping company. Established transporters provide tracking features to help customers track their vehicles.
