Shipping a Car to Weirton

A few key points to remember when shipping a car to Weirton:

Packing personal items inside the car

When you are shipping a car, everything should be removed from inside the car. The only thing covered by cargo insurance will be the car. Personal items can add weight to the vehicle that can increase shipping cost as well as cause the driver to have an overweight load and face a possible fine. Also, due to insurance regulations, if any personal items were damaged or lost during transport they would not be replaced or repaired by the auto transporter.

Insurance

All transporters must carry valid insurance to cover the vehicles they haul. The coverage will range in amount depending on the company but it is required to cover the vehicle from bumper to bumper. Many companies only carry enough to cover what the Kelly Blue Book value of the vehicle would be. If you need more coverage you may be able to pay to upgrade the coverage. If not, you can always add a private insurance policy that can be used while the vehicle is being transported.

Paperwork

Paperwork is very important when using a professional auto transporter to relocate a vehicle. When you call to get a price quote, be sure to get it in writing if possible. If you sign any paperwork you will want to get every paper printed. Many transporters have shipping contracts that they require customers to sign. You need to read all of the contracts before you sign it. When the vehicle is inspected when it is picked up and delivered, you need to make sure the inspection notes are accurate before signing the Bill of Lading.

Local

When you are having a car transported to a new area, you should be sure to check the area out before the vehicle arrives. If the car is being delivered to a shipping terminal, you will need to find out where the nearest gas station is located so you can fill the car up when it arrives. You will also need to get the vehicle registered locally, get a local driver’s license and change your voter’s registration card to a local address.

“I am VERY PLEASED with the shipment for our 1979 Camaro. The vehicle arrived when they said, they called me with a progress report when they crossed the Wisconsin/Illinois border, and then again when they were about 15 minutes from the drop off location. The driver and his co-driver were very pleasant people. I could not have asked for nicer people to transport "our new baby". Thank you A1 for all your above and beyond efforts. You do know your job, and you do it well. This has made my day, week, month, year........... Again, thank you.”

“I am super happy with my choice of A1 Auto Shipping. The other company I worked with was super difficult, though it did teach me a bit about the industry. Some brokers underbid by a lot, so they’ll get your contract, even if there are no carriers who will ever want to take on a job at such a price. Because of this, after signing the contract, they may leave you hanging endlessly. I had to get my car to Kentucky and had no time for pointless waiting. The other company asked me to pay $800 upfront. I didn’t know at the time this wasn’t standard practice. By paying upfront, I basically had no choice but to wait on them till a truck finally offered to take my car. A1 Auto Transport, for example, only asks for a deposit amounting to a fraction of the total cost when picking up your vehicle. You only pay the full sum after the job is done. The broker, whose name I won’t mention, was supposed to get a truck to my doorstep on the 5th of September. I put my order in 10 days prior, so there was plenty of time to find one. When I called them, they told me the 5th was actually the earliest estimate, and the actual pickup date could be quite long time away. After “accidentally” charging another $700 for my transportation, I was in tears. I had to move in less than a week, and I couldn’t afford to leave my car behind. So, I gave up on those guys and opted for A1 Auto Transport. I spoke with Joe and he got my car on a truck the following day. I am so grateful! The arrival time was estimated at 6-8 days, and it got to Kentucky on the 7th. This saved me a ton of money I would have had to spend on transport to search for an apartment. Joe called a day earlier to let me know of the time and place it would arrive. I asked if it could be delivered to another nearby location, and he was nice enough to do it. He was very helpful and straight forward. Thank you!”

I am super happy with my choice of A1 Auto Shipping

“I bought a Dodge COE recently in Texas, so I was looking for a company to transport it to Mississippi. After putting a few ads, tens of companies called and spammed us with emails, but none of them were what we were looking for. Each one seemed a bit off. The quote was either too big or suspiciously low; some were just unfriendly and unlikable, while others reeked of a scam. Finally, I told my sister about my situation and she recommended Joe’s company. A1 Auto Transport met all our criteria. Joe has impeccable communication skills. He was friendly, explained the transport details, and gave us a bunch of options for our vehicle. These differed depending on the type of truck we wanted to use. We went with an open carrier in the end due to the lower price. Finally, the truck arrived. It had an open trailer carrying 3 other vehicles. The driver explained they were all heading to Mississippi, so they wouldn’t delay our transport. I got my car back 3 days later, a bit earlier than they estimated. But hey, if you’re going to complain about faster service, then it’s not the company for you. For all those who prefer professionalism, and awesome services, I highly recommend it!”

I highly recommend it

“Reliable! My Ford Ranger was due to be picked up at 2PM, but they came early by 15 minutes. I was delighted since I had a doctor's appointment. The pickup and delivery was handled professionally. It got to Minnesota on time. A1 Auto Transport knows how to make things easy for its clients. I can't imagine risking my vehicle with another transport service provider. Time is gold for me, so I am definitely saving their number for future reference and referrals!”

Reliable!

“Dear Mark, Thank you so much for your help in getting our classic car to us in record time. It was a bit unnerving at first as we bought the car on Ebay and then not knowing for sure where the car was being stored while waiting for delievery. We were assured that the car was being stored in at you facility out of the sun's damaging rays. We appreicate that. We were told that the car would be picked up on Aug 8th and we thought that was a bit longer than agreed upon however, the car was picked up on August 4th and delievered to us in Arkansas on the 9th. I might add it was transported in a wonderful fashion and your drivers were absolutley wonderful with the car. Thanks again. We would use your company again without a question. ”
