- First learn that transporting a vehicle needs special skills, equipment and insurance. So the household mover may not be the best option to transport your vehicle. Always engage auto transport mover or Auto shipping company for any kind of your moves be it a local or international.
- First hand information from friends and relatives is always the best helper to find the best auto transport provider.
- Decide on the auto transport mode you prefer. Different auto transport modes are Standard auto transport mode done by using open car carrier and the other one is the closed car transporter which protects your vehicle from all kinds of weather disasters. This mode is advocated by many as it better protects the vehicle.
- Also decide the mode of transportation you want to use, the carriers or the auto transport broker or the auto drive away service.
- Carriers are perfect with pick up and drop off dates because they own trucks. Brokers on the other hand do not own trucks but have good network of truckers who offer flexible pricing. Auto drive away services provide you drivers who drive your cars to the destiny (in the case of a local or interstate move).
- After deciding on these things call three good auto transporters around you and compare their prices and services. This helps you in choosing the best auto transport provider.
- Before choosing the auto transporter check whether the transporter is registered with the Department of Transportation and has an active MC and USDOT number. Brokers will only have MC numbers.
- Also check whether the carrier has an active liability and cargo insurance. Check whether it covers the value of your vehicle. If the insurance is limited ask for additional coverage. Better take a written proof of transport insurance coverage.
- Make sure that there are no complaints against the auto transport company. This can be done online.
- Finally before handing your vehicle over to the auto transporter know the ways of inspection, pick up and delivery of the vehicle. For every thing better take a written contract.
