Cost & Time To Ship Your Car Examples

Using Stratford Auto Transport Services

• Other Vehicle Types - Any auto mover will be able to ship standard sized cars and small trucks, as well as motorcycles (assuming they’re in running condition). There are, however, a few types of vehicles that require special care and handling--something you should make sure they have ample experience with before hiring them. Here are a list of the services and types of vehicles that may require specialization or specific experience when shipping:
  • Luxury, exotic and high-end cars
  • Classic and vintage cars
  • Motorhomes and RVs
  • Quads, trikes, and ATVs
  • Construction equipment and heavy machinery
  • Boats and yachts
  • Oversize vehicles and large trucks
  • Inoperable vehicles
  • International shipments
• Recommendations - There are plenty of resources available if you need a recommendation for an auto shipper, however, you should approach online reviews with some caution. There are some websites, such as Yelp and Transport Reviews, which are widely used by consumers that need some advice on a product or service, but these are not always the best place to look for a car shipper. The problem with these reviews, like online testimonials, is that they can be manipulated. Yelp has even been criticized for altering the position of reviews to benefit their own advertising purposes--a practice that was protected by a recent court ruling. So this raises the question of where you can find a good recommendation for a car shipping company. Car dealerships and rental agencies are one of the best options since they regularly have interaction with auto transporters. Local real estate agents and property managers are also a good resource for a recommendation. If you’re fortunate enough to know someone who’s shipped a car in the past, it’s always a good idea to ask them about their experience and if they have a company they would recommend.
• Researching Shippers - Before agreeing to terms with an auto shipper and putting down a deposit (if required), you’ll want to visit the FMCSA auto transport database to check the status of their license and operating authority. With either the company name or any of the license numbers they’ve been assigned, you can look up information about performance and safety records, as well as if they have active status as an auto carrier. You can also find out where the main company office is located, which can be helpful since it’s not always easy information to find. There’s also information about whether a company acts as a carrier or a broker, which can be helpful if you have a preference.
