Insurance and Carrier Compliance

All carriers are licensed by FMCSA and DOT, bonded, and carry commercial cargo insurance.

Why Auto Transport Beats Driving Yourself

For long-distance moves, auto transport saves money, time, and stress. You avoid fuel costs, hotel stays, food expenses, wear and tear, and the time investment of multi-day driving.

What to Expect at Pickup and Delivery

At pickup, the driver inspects your vehicle and creates a bill of lading. At delivery, the driver conducts a final inspection. Note any concerns before signing the delivery receipt.

Choosing Between Open and Enclosed Transport

Most vehicles ship via open carrier transport. Enclosed transport adds 40-80% to the cost but provides full weather protection. We recommend enclosed for luxury vehicles, classic cars, and exotic vehicles.

Preparing Your Vehicle for Transport

Before pickup, clean the exterior, remove personal items, leave a quarter tank of fuel, disable car alarms, document existing damage with photos, and leave keys with the carrier.
