Tips To Ensure Your Vehicle Is Safe During Hauling

Perhaps it's your first time shipping a car, and you are unsure whether it's safe for your car. Notwithstanding the few risks caused by harsh weather conditions and road accidents, auto relocation is one of the safest ways of relocating automobiles.

Established transporters like we have put up numerous safety measures to ensure the shipment arrives at the destination safely. This is not to say you brush off any safety concerns when hauling your car. There is a possibility of falling into the hands of incompetent relocators, fraudulent companies, and sketchy quotes.

Read The Customer Reviews

Get the views of those who have shipped with the shifter before committing. Reputable haulers have a customer review section on their websites. You might also want to explore other uncensored reviews websites like Google, Yelp, and Facebook. More importantly, you might want to check out the rating of your transport company of choice on the Better Business Bureau website.

It's a red flag if the company does not have a customer review platform. Other things that should scare you from a transporter include complaints about car damage, missing items, delays, and too many additional charges.

Nonetheless, it's impossible to impress every customer, so you will not miss a few dissatisfied customers. The most important thing is to check whether and how the relocator responds.

Check Out the Licensing

The hauling industry in the US is often referred to as the "Wild West" because it is not as regulated as other industries. With a few hundred bucks, anyone can offer shifting services, and the results can be disastrous to customers.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulates the shifting industry. The agency assigns each transporter a motor carrier (MC) number to show they are properly licensed and insured.

Get Multiple Quotes and Beware of Too-Low Quotes

Relocating to a new place is costly, and you will do everything possible to save money. This includes hiring a transport company with the lowest cost in the market. Start by requesting quotes from several companies before choosing one that fits your budget. Doing this will not only help you in finding a transporter with the best rates but also helps you identify red flags.

The relocating cost differs from company to company, but a shipper charging more than three times what other companies charge for the same service is a big stretch. Equally, you should be skeptical of relocator charging way less than others, considering the process and equipment used do not vary much.

Ordinarily, cross-country hauling should cost between $600 -1800 for open transport and $1200 - $2200 for enclosed hauling. The shifting company should not charge you anything or compel you to sign a contract with them to get a quote. If anything, they should connect you to a shifter that suits your needs.

Pay Attention to The Detail

You cannot afford mistakes when relocating a pricey item like your vehicle. This is why you need to pay attention to detail, from signing a contract to when your vehicle is delivered to the destination.

The transporter's website should be well-designed, simple, and easy to understand, with all important features indicated. Things to look out for on the transport company's website include customer reviews, quote forms, contacts, physical addresses, and licensing. It's a red flag for too many spelling mistakes or inconsistent information on the website.

Make Your Vehicle Ready for Relocating in Time

Your vehicle's safety during shipping relies not only on the shifter. You need to do things from your end to ensure the process is successful. You have to familiarize yourself with them early to avoid last minute rush. Ensure to do the following before handing over your automobile to the carrier include;

• Thoroughly clean the interior and exterior of your vehicle
• Unload all unnecessary items
• Take your car for regular service maintenance
• Disable the alarm system
• Put together all the required documentation
• Leave the gas tank ¼ full
