Using Winston-Salem Vehicle Transport Companies
Winston-Salem is a well-traveled area of North Carolina and therefore requires some knowledge of the area and the industry at large ahead of shipping to or from the city:
- Schedule a time for pick-up and/or delivery and ask your company to stick to it: Otherwise, you could end up spending more time than you would like sitting around waiting for your vehicle to be picked up or delivered and this could be costly to you when you are trying to move or take care of other tasks ahead of travel. Provide a cell phone number that the company can use if they are going to be outside of the confines of your schedule.
- Ask for after-hours contact information: This way, should something go wrong with your vehicle or you have a change in plans that requires the company to alert the transport driver, you have some recourse and someone to call that can then contact the driver.
- Ask about the route of transport: This gives you an opportunity to better prepare your vehicle to be transported. For instance, if you know that your car will be traveling through colder areas of the country during the winter months, you can prepare accordingly. However, it is a good rule of thumb to have your car prepared for all elements if you are shipping through the more commonly-used open-air transport.

Long Distance Auto Transport to/from Winston-Salem
A1 Auto Transport’s long distance shipping services can be very useful when moving to a new state. A moving company won’t be able to ship your car, and driving it yourself will cost you time. Our prices are similar and sometimes lower than the DYI method.

This way, your car will be protected from both internal and external factors, so its safe arrival will pretty much be a given. Find out more by calling our office today.

Cheap Transportation Options in Winston-Salem
If you're not interested in the latest auto shipping technologies and are instead more worried about staying within a certain price range, we can definitely make it happen. Our transport system can be customized to suit every client's needs. We can mix our options together, so you'll get the best possible service at a price you can afford.
For example, we can arrange for a door to terminal transport with an open carrier while keeping the car on the upper row of the platform. While this is slightly more expensive than the standard service, there are many advantages as well.
You won't have to drive your car to a terminal to send it off, allowing you to focus on your move. Your vehicle will also be safe from pebbles that tend to fly near the ground and from liquids that may drop from other cars. Both of these benefits are obtained with only a marginal increase in the price. If you’re interested, call now.
Auto Transport Safety Measures in Winston-Salem
Auto transportation, like any other type of move, comes with certain risks. A road collision might occur or an animal might smash into it. These risks must be taken seriously, especially if you try to transport the vehicle on your own. However, if you leave it to a professional company, they'll be greatly reduced.
In case of a collision, your car will be protected by the truck and by an insurance policy. Outside factors, such as birds and rain, can be kept away easily with an enclosed auto carrier. Finally, the truck will be driven by a seasoned professional that will take all the appropriate safety precautions.
