Preparing Your Recreational Vehicle For Auto Transport

As with any other vehicle, some minimal preparation is recommended before having an RV moved by a professional. Following these simple steps will help make sure that everything runs smoothly,smoothly and smoothly after we pick up your RV to start the transport process.

Secure Everything

This includes anything that's loose or might come loose during auto transport, both inside and outside of the RV. Double-check latches, drawers, windows, doors, vents, and awnings. Remember wall hangings and appliances!

Remove Personal Items

This goes along with the first point about preparing an RV for auto shipping. Anything that can rattle around throughout/for a long delivery can cause problems for the RV shipping company, and worse, potential damage to your recreational vehicle.

Document the RV Condition

Remember to document the condition of your RV before it's picked up for RV transport service. An RV shipping company will also record the condition of your RV or travel trailer, and having your notes ready for comparison is a good idea. We also recommend to our valued customers that they take photos of their RV trailer before moving it.

General Maintenance Before RV Shipping

Some basic RV trailers maintenance can go a long way in making your experience with an RV transport company a good one. It's crucial to check things like tire pressure and fluid levels before picking up your RV, motorhome,or travel trailer.

This step will guard against any mechanical mishaps in transporting RVs across the country and ensure that your RV trailer is in great road-ready condition when it arrives.

Cost & Time To Ship Your Rv Examples

Disconnect Gas Lines & Power Supply

Before scheduling RV transport, please ensure the gas line and electricity are turned off. All the appliances in the RV , such as the ones inside the bedroom, the kitchen, the bathroom , and the living room , as well as the tow bar , are included. Tire wear and low pressure should be checked regularly. It is important to double-check that the travel trailer doesn't have any stray items lying around. Before calling for a tow, please familiarize yourself with your RV's owner's manual.

Related Information & Faq Rv

Perform Due Diligence

RV transport companies are very different. While reputable auto shipping companies like A-1 RV transport have your best interest in mind, finding ones that haven't prioritized it is not uncommon

Doing your homework adequately involves investigating their address authenticity, reading client reviews from third-party review platforms , alongside knowing whether they've shipped RVs before.

Understand The RV Transporters Pricing

The weight of your RV and the distance it must be transported are two of the most important factors. Other variables including gas prices, demand and vehicle condition, play a significant role in determining the cost of RV transport. If the RV shipping company's rates are absurdly low and the deal is likely too good to be true.

While trying to save a couple of hundred dollars can sometimes work to your leverage, it is wise to avoid transport companies with low RV transport costs.

Plan and Prepare Your RV in Advance

Interacting with the logistics of the RV transport company beforehand could help you reduce costly charges.

Meet with the RV transport company's logistics department, and ask about their timelines, routes , and all the details about possible events that could cause delays in shipping an RV. To haul multiple RVs, flatbed trailers or fifth wheel is used by RV haulers. This method involves special equipment to prepare your RV move.
