Pricing & Time For Shipments

Using Firms

• Preparation - Before your auto is picked up for moving, there are a few things that you need to do in preparation. The first is to make sure it is cleaned, both inside and out, and that it is in good running condition. (Some, but not all, haulers will move an inoperable one.) Having it clean helps make sure that nothing bounces around inside, and that the driver can quickly assess any existing damages, scratches, or dents on it. Finally, this essential gas tank should only be 1/8 to 1/4 full. It varies from one company to the other. So make sure you follow the specific guidelines for the one that moves it. The weight of extra gas in the tank can add up when moving several cars at once, usually resulting in an additional fee for the customer.

• Personal Items - Though some movers may allow a few personal items to be moved inside, the general rule is that it should be empty. Having additional items inside it when hauling over a long distance can cause damage as they shift around. Companies that allow customers to store personal items (usually in the trunk) may have weight limits or certain items they won't allow. Personal belongings may be included when moving internationally since a different method, containerized delivery, makes moving additional items along with the auto easier and safer.
• Insurance - Basic cargo insurance laws apply to the industry, which means that the price you pay includes coverage while it's being moved. Minimum insurance requirements are in place that are suitable for 90% of delivered vehicles. The exception would be for customers who need high-end, luxury or exotic autos moved- any automobile that has an exceptionally high value. In these cases, supplemental insurance coverage is available through the company. It is a good investment if you feel like the minimum coverage level is not sufficient to cover potential damage to it. While accidents are rare, they do happen, and it's a good idea to have the proper amount of insurance in place as a precautionary measure.
