Cross-Country Shipping

Cross-country shipping is a common phenomenon in today’s world. After all, you will not keep selling all your items whenever you relocate to a new home. There are numerous auto transport companies in the country, most of which operate online.

Here are simple steps to follow when you ship your automobile or household items from one part of the country to another.

Step 1: Determine your Auto Shipping Needs

You could have purchased a vehicle online from another city or state, and you want it moved to your hometown. Or, you could be relocating to a new city for college, a new job, or a vacation. Whatever the case, you need to know the destination you want to ship to or from before contacting the auto transport company.

The auto transport will use the locations indicated to provide a quote. The quote will be incorrect if you provide an inaccurate location or destination.

Step 2: Determine Your Timeframes

Once you are sure about the location and destination of your vehicle, the next thing is to determine a timeframe that will suit your schedule. Auto-shipping is generally a slow process; you should not expect your items to arrive at their destination within a day or two. Early booking is a good strategy for getting good deals when shipping a car. We advise you to book a slot with a shipping company at least one month before the travel date. That way, you will have sufficient time to prepare your vehicle for shipping.

Although you can book a slot with a shipping company any time of the year, auto shipping prices vary from season to season. For instance, you are likely to pay higher rates during summer and holidays when the demand for shipping slots is high. On the contrary, the auto shipping rates are lower during winter because of the decrease in travelers.

Step 3: Find A Suitable Transporter

The next thing to do is to find a transport company that suits your needs. Hundreds of companies will offer to ship your car, but not all have a good reputation. Spare your time to research the carrier company before committing to it.

The first thing to check in an auto transport company is the license status. All companies offering auto transport services be registered with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. You must also ensure the transport company has an adequate insurance policy. Good customer reviews are an indication of the quality auto transport company. Better still, check their rating at the Better Business Bureau.

Their website should be well-designed and easy to use. Relevant information and features like addresses, contacts, customer reviews and quote forms should appear clearly.

Step 4: Get A Quote

Once you are satisfied with a particular transporter, the next thing to do is to request a quote. This will inform you whether the transporter you want to hire is affordable. The information required on the quote varies from one transporter to another. A-1 Auto Transport, for instance, will require you to provide the following;

• The location and destination of the car
• Type, model and condition of your automobile
• Transport type (open or enclosed)
• Delivery service (door-to-door or terminal-to-terminal)
• Contact information
• Household items included

Remember, a quote is not binding; it is only meant to estimate the auto transport cost. It will inform the carrier company of your intention to work with them. However, the information you provide to the quote must be accurate to avoid a major difference between the quote and the final transport cost.

Some companies provide the quote immediately, while others will follow up on your request with a quote and more information about the process.

Step 5: Book Your Order

This is where you confirm your order with the auto-shipping company. Mostly, you will be required to sign a contract and deposit partial payment. We advise you avoid transporters who will ask for full payment at the beginning of the shipping process.

Read the contract carefully before signing it to avoid any future surprises. Also, ensure to use a verifiable payment method. Most transporters accept credit or debit payments.

Car transport companies take an average of five days to pick up the car from the day you sign the contract. They will advise you on preparing your vehicle for shipping as you await the pickup date. Most shippers will require you to wash the car, unload personal items, leave the fuel tank ¼ full and take the car for regular service maintenance.

Step 6: Get Your Car Transported

Most auto shipping companies do not give definite pickup or drop-off dates to avoid issues because of the underlying factors that go into auto shipping. Instead, they provide an open timeframe of between five and ten days. However, you should expect notification of pickup or drop off one or two days earlier.

Ensure to inspect the car with a shipping company representative for any existing damages before handover and do the same at the destination. Raise the issue immediately with the transport company if you notice any damage to your car.
