Shipping a Car Vs. Buying a New Car

One of the biggest decisions car owners make when relocating is whether to ship their cars, drive them or sell the car and buy another at the new destination. Below is a list of situations where you should consider shipping your car:

• Personal attachment: It is easy to develop an attachment to a car you have been with for years, and nothing can convince you to get rid of it. If you are in such a situation, a car transport company will safely and efficiently relocate it for you.
• Valuable vehicle: It is not easy to dispose of valuable cars. While you have the choice of driving it, mechanical problems, damage, or wear and tear will cost you a lot. The only secure way of relocating such a car is by hiring an experienced and reputable hauler company.
• Convenience: Not many people can afford to waste days on the road. Hiring a shipping company saves time and allows you to continue your daily activities. A reliable shipping company will give you regular updates throughout the shipping process.
• Inoperable automobile: Unless you're willing to repair an inoperable car before transport, you don't have a choice but hire an auto shipping company to move it. Auto transport companies have the right equipment to help load and unload inoperable cars.

While long-distance driving can be fun, it comes with too many uncertainties. Plus, you already have a lot on the table and do not want to add work to your busy schedule. Hiring a reputable hauler company like A-1 Auto Transport will give you peace of mind.

Red Flags When Choosing a Hauler Company

One of the biggest challenges many customers face is picking the right company from the long list of companies available in the market. Most of these companies will promise the best services only to disappoint once given the job.

Here are some of the red flags when choosing an auto transport company:

Unlicensed Companies

Ensure the hauling company you're dealing with has all the required licenses to offer auto shipping services in the US. A licensed shipper should have a motor carrier (MC) number on its website. Go to the Federal Motor Safety Carrier Administration (FMCSA) website to check whether the MC number provided is legitimate.

The FMCSA is a federal agency regulating all US auto shipping companies. A hauler company that passes the requirements is handed an MC number to show they are registered with the FMCSA.

Inconsistencies And Spelling Mistakes on Its Website

Too many spelling mistakes on the shipping company's website mean they are not keen on detail. Another red flag is too many inconsistencies in the information provided on its website.

A reliable transporter should provide all important information in a simple language. Most customers do not take a keen look at the terms and conditions, which later hurt them when something goes wrong.

Abnormally Low Rates

You probably wish to spend as little as you can when shipping a car. However, this does not mean you compromise on price at the expense of quality. Always compare the shipping rates against the quality of service. Shipping companies often consider the transportation distance, type of car, and auto shipping option when calculating the shipping cost.

Any transporter that charges very low rates could compromise on the quality of their service to compensate for their low rates. Some companies will entice you will low rates only to increase the price when the shipping process begins.

Inactive Customer Care Agents

Before hiring a company to haul your car, you should call the contacts provided on the shipping company's website. A reputable company will not take too long to pick up your call or reply to your email. They should be friendly and answer all your questions in the most satisfying way possible.

Stay away from a shipper that takes too long to answer your calls. Equally, stay away from companies with unfriendly or dishonest customer care agents.

Uninsured Companies

Even with the most sophisticated safety measures, you can never rule out the possibility of an accident or damage during shipping. This is why you should only hire a shipping company with an up to date and adequate insurance cover.

Suppose anything happens to your car during transport. In that case, the insurance cover provided by the shipping company should take responsibility. Be on the look for damaging clauses that could prevent you from getting full compensation.
