How much does it cost to ship a car?
Car shipping prices vary based on factors like distance, vehicle size and type, transport option (open or enclosed), and seasonality. Contact us for a personalized car shipping quote tailored to your specific needs.
How long does car shipping usually take?
The time to ship a car depends on the distance and route, usually ranging from a few days to a couple of weeks. You’ll receive an estimated delivery window when you book your shipment.
Is my vehicle insured while being transported?
Your vehicle is fully protected with comprehensive insurance throughout the shipping process, ensuring coverage against any potential damage during transit.
Can I keep personal items inside my vehicle during transport?
While some carriers allow personal belongings inside your vehicle, we recommend removing all items to minimize the risk of damage or theft. For detailed guidelines, please contact us.
What types of vehicles do you ship?
We transport a wide range of vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, trucks, motorcycles, luxury and classic cars, and oversized vehicles.
What is the difference between open and enclosed transport?
Open transport, the most common and cost-effective option, uses open-air trailers for vehicle shipping. Enclosed transport offers extra protection by shipping vehicles inside covered trailers—ideal for luxury, classic, and high-value cars.
How do I get my vehicle ready for shipping?
Clean your vehicle thoroughly, remove all personal items, keep the fuel tank under 25%, disable alarms, and photograph existing damage. Full preparation guidelines will be provided after booking confirmation.
Do you offer door-to-door delivery?
Absolutely! We provide convenient door-to-door service, handling pickup and delivery at your preferred locations for a seamless shipping experience.
How can I track my vehicle during transit?
Our 24/7 online tracking lets you monitor your vehicle’s journey with continuous updates throughout the shipping process.
What should I do if my vehicle gets damaged during transport?
If your vehicle is damaged during transport, photograph the damage, notify the driver upon delivery, and promptly contact our customer service to begin the insurance claim process.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept various payment methods, including credit/debit cards, bank transfers, and, in some cases, cash on delivery—depending on the carrier.
Do you offer discounts for shipping multiple vehicles or for military personnel?
Discounts are available for shipping multiple vehicles and military members. Contact us to learn about eligibility and current promotions.
When is the best time to book my car shipment?
Schedule your car shipment at least 1–2 weeks in advance to ensure availability and get the best pricing.
How do I go about rescheduling my shipment dates?
Need to change your shipping dates? Contact us promptly, and we’ll accommodate your request and update your schedule.
Are there restrictions on what can be left inside my vehicle during shipping?
Hazardous materials, illegal items, and perishable goods are prohibited. Contact us for a full list of shipping restrictions and guidelines.
Can you transport vehicles that are not in working condition?
Yes, we transport non-operational vehicles. Please inform us of your vehicle’s condition when booking, as special equipment may be needed.
What paperwork do I need to ship my vehicle?
You’ll typically need your vehicle registration, proof of insurance, and valid ID. For international shipments, additional documents like a bill of lading and customs paperwork may be required.
Is delivery timing guaranteed?
While we aim to meet estimated delivery dates, exact arrival times aren’t guaranteed due to factors like weather, traffic, and route changes. We provide regular updates to keep you informed about your vehicle’s status.
How do I cancel my shipment if needed?
If you need to cancel your shipment, notify us promptly. Cancellation terms and fees vary depending on timing.
