General Tips For Auto Transport
Moving your car can be from anywhere
to a simple experience to a tiring one… Especially
if you own more than one car. Always remember
doing your homework and being well organized
will save a lot of time and money. Ask
your employers, friends and relatives who have
previous experience with auto transport. Don’t
by shy. They might be able to answer questions
or give you ideas to help you through your move. There
are many variables to review before you decide
to transport your car. If you are moving from
state to state you need to consider things like emissions
and safety standards. These rules vary from state
to state so you might be better off buying a
new car that meets your states requirements. Contact
the local DMV, they might be able to answer your
questions. If you do decide
to transport your car, there are a few things
to consider: If I choose door to door delivery
will the trunk be able to enter into my new neighborhood?
- In most cases,
your car(s) will be transported on an 8 or
10-car hauler, the same type of trucks used
to deliver new cars to your local dealerships.
These trucks are 75 to 80 feet long (that's
nearly twice as long as a conventional freight
truck or moving van) and are almost 14 feet
high. Therefore they are very hard to maneuver
and are restricted to main roads that do not
have any overhanging trees or low clearance
bridges. So before choosing door to service,
please bear this in mind. A local service may
be used should the hauler/transporter encounter
difficulty in reaching your pick-up/delivery.
Will I be allowed
to put things in my trunk?
- No, Auto Transporter
Carriers are not permitted by law to transport
personal belongings, as they do not have a
household goods transportation license. By
violating this law they can be fined up to
$10,000 per occurrence. In addition, if you were
to place things in the car they would not be
covered by insurance.
What factors is my auto transport
price based on?
- Distance
- Make/Model
- Operating condition
- Insurance coverage
