Step 1: Request Your Free Car Shipping Quote
The first and most important step is to get an accurate estimate. Our car shipping calculator provides an instant, no-obligation quote. You’ll simply need to provide a few key details, including your vehicle’s make and model, the pickup and delivery locations, and your desired transport dates. We believe in complete transparency, and your car shipping cost quote will be all-inclusive with no hidden fees.
Step 2: Book Your Service and Schedule Pickup
Once you’ve reviewed your quote and are ready to proceed, you can book your shipment. We will then assign a highly-rated, professional carrier from our extensive network. We offer flexible scheduling and will work with you to find a pickup date that fits your timeline. Our goal is to make this process as convenient as possible, which is why we offer door-to-door car delivery service.
Step 3: Vehicle Preparation
While our carriers handle the heavy lifting, a little preparation on your end will ensure a smooth process. We’ll provide you with a full checklist, but here are the key steps:
Clean your vehicle: Wash your car and take photos of its interior and exterior. This provides a clear record of its condition before it’s loaded onto the transport truck.
Remove personal belongings: It’s important to remove all personal items from the vehicle, as carriers are not licensed to transport household goods.
Check the fuel: Your car should have about a quarter tank of gas to minimize weight.
Secure loose parts: Make sure all loose parts like antennas, spoilers, and accessories are secured or removed.
Provide keys: A working set of keys is necessary for the driver to load and unload the vehicle.
Step 4: Transport and Tracking
On the scheduled day, your assigned driver will arrive to pick up your vehicle. Together, you will perform a final inspection and sign the Bill of Lading (BOL), which serves as the official document of the vehicle’s condition. The driver will then carefully load your car onto the transport trailer. You can then relax and track your vehicle’s progress from pickup to delivery.
Step 5: Final Delivery
When the driver is near the delivery location, they will contact you to arrange a convenient drop-off time. Upon arrival, you will inspect the vehicle, compare it to the initial BOL, and sign to accept the delivery. It’s that simple!
