8 Steps For Choosing An Auto Transport Provider

8 Steps For Choosing An Auto Transport Provider

1. Start With A Reputable Auto Transport Company.

Find a transporter that is listed with the Better Business Bureau and is financially strong. They should be licensed with the FMCSA as a broker or carrier.

2. Do Not Go With the Lowest PriceMany companies lure unsuspecting customers with the lowest bid. They then need to locate a carrier to physically move your vehicle. If the carrier does not accept the low price (and generally they don't), then your vehicle will not be moved.

3. Visit The Auto Transporters Website. Does it include easy-to-use online tools to obtain an instant price quote and estimated transit time? Can you access frequently-asked questions and additional information about shipping tips, terms and conditions? Does it also offer the ability to track shipments online?

4. Licensed & Fully-Insured Providers Work only with an auto transport company who uses reputable, licensed and fully-insured trucking and rail service providers.

5. Read Over the Whole ContractRead the contract completely before signing. Be wary of hidden fees that are listed in the small print on the contract.

6. Ask How To Resolve Any ClaimAsk how the auto transporter will work with you to quickly and equitably resolve any claim, if damage occurs to your vehicle.

7. Thoroughly inspect your vehicle before pick up.Carefully inspect the exterior and interior, as well as all fluid levels, operating systems and lights. Note any pre-existing scratches, dents, dings or other problems so you can determine if there was a change in vehicle condition as a result of transportation. Remember to also disarm any safety alarms and remove all personal items from the vehicle.
