Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book my car shipment?
We recommend booking your car shipment at least 1-2 weeks in advance to secure the best rates and ensure availability. That said, we know life can throw surprises your way, so we also offer last-minute bookings to accommodate those sudden moves. Just give us a call, and we’ll do our best to fit you in!
Can I pack personal items in my car during shipping?
While it’s tempting to fill up that extra space, we generally advise against loading personal items in your car, as they aren’t covered by insurance and can impact the weight limits. But don’t worry – feel free to bring lightweight essentials like an emergency kit or a few blankets. (We won’t tell if there’s a snack stash in there too.)
How long will it take to ship my car?
On average, shipments can take anywhere from 3 to 10 days, depending on the distance and route. For instance, coast-to-coast moves might be on the longer end, while shorter, regional trips are quicker. We’ll provide you with an estimated delivery window when you book, and you can track your car’s journey every mile of the way.
Is my car insured during the transport?
Absolutely! Your car is fully insured throughout its journey, so you can breathe easy. Our comprehensive insurance covers any unexpected events. Need peace of mind? We’re happy to provide you with the policy details and answer any specific questions you have about coverage.
What do I need to do to prepare my car for shipping?
Preparing your car is simple! Just give it a wash (so we can document its condition), check the battery and tire pressure, and remove any personal items. If you have a quarter tank of gas in the tank, you’re good to go – no need to fill up! Finally, hand over a spare set of keys, and we’ll handle the rest.
Tips for a smooth move
Pack Smart - Less is More!
While it might seem like a good idea to maximize space by loading personal items into your car, we recommend keeping it light. The less weight, the better! Shipping regulations generally discourage packing personal belongings in the car due to weight and insurance limitations. Consider packing essentials like an emergency kit, spare tire, and a few blankets – but keep it minimal. Bonus tip: If you’re flying to your new location, pack your essentials in a carry-on to avoid last-minute scrambles on moving day!
Prep Your Car – A Quick Tune-Up Goes a Long Way
Give your car a quick once-over to ensure it’s ready for the road. Start with a thorough wash – this isn’t just for looks! A clean exterior helps us document its condition for the shipping process. Next, check the battery, top off any essential fluids, and make sure your tires are properly inflated. Only leave about a quarter tank of gas; extra fuel adds weight. Lastly, remove any external accessories like bike racks or spoilers to prevent damage during transit. You’re all set – your car’s ready to go the distance!
Stay in the Loop – Track Your Car Like a Pro
One of the best parts of shipping with us is the ability to stay updated on your car’s journey. After booking, you’ll get access to our real-time tracking feature, so you can monitor your car’s progress across the miles. Expect updates at key points along the way, and don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team if you have questions. Knowing exactly where your car is can help you plan your arrival with peace of mind. Think of it as following your car’s cross-country adventure – without any road trip snacks required!
