Safe And Reliable San Jose Car Shipping Services By A-1 Auto Transport

The third largest city in the state and the largest in the Silicon Valley, to say that technology plays a major role in this city would be an understatement. This city is situated at the southern tip of San Francisco Bay and has experienced rapid rates of growth since the 1960s. It now has status as a global city and is a mecca for tech-related companies looking to expand, grow or simply “start up.”

There are a number of cultural institutions here, as the tech professionals that call this area home like to spend as much time at play as they do working. From the History Park at Kelley Park to the Winchester Mystery House to Raging Waters, there is plenty to keep visitors and residents alike occupied.

Using San Jose Vehicle Transport Companies

When you are looking to book San Jose car transport services, keep a few key tips in mind:

• Use a broker for international automobile transportation: This method not only offers greater protections than you may have a consumer when using an international company, but you may be entitled to discounts through the broker that you may not be privy to when you go directly through the company itself.
• Make sure there are no hidden costs associated with transport: Like any contract, there may be costs that you didn’t consider upon booking transport. Look over your paperwork in detail to ensure that you aren’t surprised when it is time to pay up.
• Ask about acceptable forms of payment: Depending on the size of the company, credit cards or checks may not be acceptable. Ask about this up front, so that you are prepared to pay with the proper form of payment at the beginning or end of the transport process, depending on the company in question.

Long Distance Auto Transport to/from San Jose

The longer the distance across which you need to send your car, the more expensive it will be, and the more advantageous using an auto transport company will be.

Long distance trips can damage your car, add to its mileage, lead to expensive repairs, and other situations. When it’s strapped on a moving platform like a carrier, such problems do not occur.

As a client, you pay only a fraction of the cost of the fuel, hotel bills, and other expenses the company has to cover. You share these costs with hundreds of other car owners using our services. Because one truck can move up to 12 cars, even if the company takes its share for the work it performed, the service is still considerably cheaper than what a long distance trip would cost you.

International Shipping to/from San Jose

Long distance auto shipping is very difficult to arrange. It’s time consuming and drains a lot of energy, especially if you’ve never done it before. International shipping is even more complicated, due to the problems of customs, having to deal with ships, etc.

The services of an auto transport company are needed in such cases. A1 auto transport takes care of both the planning and the shipping of your vehicle. We can deal with customs in your stead, prepare the required paperwork and guide you through what documentation you’ll need to provide. Also, thanks to our well priced services and substantial discounts, the cost will likely not be a problem.
