New Cumberland Car Shipping Company, PA

Safe And Reliable Auto Transport Services With A-1 Auto Transport

New Cumberland is a historic borough located in east Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. As of 2021, the area had a population density of 4,389.7 per square mile. There is a lot to look out for in Cumberland, from galleries, restaurants, and shops, and if you are a lover of fishing, you can do it along the banks of the West Shore.

Moving a car from one location to another, let alone to a different country, is no simple feat. An opportunity to drive across the country may appear adventurous, but it comes with numerous challenges. For instance, you must deal with road jams, harsh weather conditions and rogue drivers. In addition, it causes wear and tear to your vehicle.

Auto shipping services are the only sure way to avoid these challenges. A reliable transporter should handle the nitty-gritty associated with auto shipping so you can focus on more important things. Once you sign a contract with your transport company of choice, a driver will be sent to pick up your vehicle on the agreed dates.

Auto Shipping Services

Knowing how auto shipping works will help you choose the right company and alleviate the stress of worrying about the safety of your vehicle.

For most customers, price is the major consideration when selecting an auto transport company. However, It is also important to consider factors like the extent of the insurance coverage, transparency, customer service and services offered. Below is a simple car shipping guide:

Step 1: Request Several Auto Transport Quotes

Visit websites of potential auto transport companies and request quotes. Auto transport quotes are free; no company should compel you to sign a contract by requesting a quote. You must submit accurate information to the quote form to get a near-accurate price, pickup date and delivery date.

At A-1 Auto Transport, we will request you to provide the following information to the quote form;

• Location and destination of your automobile
• Vehicle type and model
• Delivery option (door-to-door or terminal-to-terminal)
• Contact information
• House items (if any)

This information will help us understand your needs and set up the estimated auto transport cost.

Step 2: Settle on a Hauler

Once you find a quote that is agreeable to your budget, you can go ahead and complete the booking process online or by calling the company. Most shippers require customers to pay a deposit at the onset and balance once their vehicle arrives at the destination.

Before you make any deposit, read through the contract and seek clarification on anything that may sound unfamiliar. Most importantly, read the customer reviews to get a feeling of the quality of service. This ensures you're dealing with a reputable auto company with a proven track record.

A reputable transporter must have friendly customer service that will keep you updated throughout the auto transport process. They should also have sufficient insurance coverage for their shipments. Do not sign a contract with a company before inquiring about the extent of the insurance.

If you have to choose between a new and an experienced company, choose an experienced one. A transport company that has been in business for over ten years will do a better job than a newly formed hauler.

Step 3: Prepare Your Vehicle for Shipping

Once you're done with the booking process, the next thing to do is to prepare your automobile for shipping. Perform a quick check of the following factors on your vehicle before the pickup date;

• All tires must be inflated properly
• Engine fluid must be okay
• Battery condition (the battery must not lose power)
• Unload unnecessary items
• Leave the fuel tank ¼ full

Next, turn off your vehicle's alarm, if necessary, to avoid unnecessary calls from the auto carrier driver. Finally, ensure to put all necessary documentation in place to avoid possible delays.

Step 4: Car Inspection & Bill of Lading

You should receive a notification from the transport company on the pickup location, date and time. They will then send a representative to pick up your vehicle on the agreed date. However, do not release your automobile to the transport company without a proper inspection.

You will be required to indicate any dents, scratches or body damage and record them on the Bill of Lading. Keep the Bill of Lading and any other document secure since you might need them in the future. As you did at the beginning of the shipping process, inspect your vehicle for any new damages at the end. And if you notice any new damages on your vehicle, the Bill of Lading will help you claim compensation.

Note: The auto transport company, through an insurance cover, is responsible for damages to your vehicle during shipping.
