Using Richmond Vehicle Transport Companies

Richmond, CA Auto Shipping Rates
  • Comparing Prices - You absolutely should compare prices between different companies that ship cars in your area. Most auto transport companies have a website that allows you to easily get a free price quote with some basic information and a few clicks on a form. Take advantage of this! With a couple phones calls or a little web searching, you can easily get a handful of quotes in a very short amount of time and have companies competing for your business.
  • Bill of Lading - The bill of lading is a legal document that explains the details of a cargo shipment. It includes information about the vehicle, its condition and where it is being delivered. The auto transporter will do an inspection of your vehicle before shipping and it will be noted on the bill of lading, at which point you should review it. Not only does the bill of lading explain the terms and conditions of the shipment, it also acts as your proof of purchase, so take a good look at it!

  • International Transport - Shipping a car to another country can be done in a couple different ways. Transporting a car to Canada or Mexico can still be done with overland car carriers. If a vehicle needs to be transported overseas or by boat, there are two primary methods. The first is called roll on, roll off or RORO shipping. With RORO shipping, the car is driven onto a transport ship and secured in a cargo area designed to hold vehicles. The other method is called containerized shipping, in which the car is loaded into a shipping container. Transporting a car in a container allows you to put additional items, such as personal belongs or furniture, in the container along with the car.

Long Distance Auto Transport to/from Richmond

Auto transportation is a necessary service considering the time, money, and energy required to drive a vehicle, especially if the distance is considerable. Our carriers can do the same job at the same price depending on the situation.

Not only that, but instead of having to take a week off just for the road trip, you’ll be able to get on with your work in the new city while we take care of it. You won’t have to worry about planning, and you won’t need to make any repairs to your car during or after its arrival. Since long distance drives add significant mileage to vehicles, this may be the most important problem direct shipping companies help with.

Shipping Luxury and Classic Cars in Richmond

Classic and luxury cars may be difficult to take to Richmond through normal means. Driving will increase their mileage and put them at risk of accidents, hitting potholes, getting flat tires, and/or receiving structural damage from over usage. Open carriers will eliminate most problems caused by driving, but they will not stop flying pebbles or other objects from smashing into the body.

To protect your car from unforeseen projectiles often sent flying by other cars or by difficult weather conditions, and enclosed truck is what you need. Besides the increased protection, the service also comes with a high insurance policy, regular updates, and a driver experienced in shipping luxury and vintage automobiles.

There are a lot of options for auto transport these days, which surprisingly makes it harder to find a good company. I received more than 10 offers to ship my car, but I couldn’t decide on any of them... Fortunately, I made the right choice with A1 Auto Transport.
