Before you can ship your car from state to state, you must first, gather all of the information on the vehicle you wish to ship. This will include the make and model, the year and the projected shipping date. Also, is the car operable or inoperable which could prevent or pose problems for pick-up or delivery.
Go to the internet and or phone books and conduct a search on vehicle shipping quotes, door to door car transport and auto transport.
Comprise a list of potential shippers and start cold calling to get the best quote. Inquire about company shipping standards, the length of the process from pick-up to drop-off. Payment and shipping options such as, enclosed or open means of transportation should be discussed.
Once you have chosen your transportation company you want to prepare for the pick-up date. Be sure that you have the form and amount of payment ready for the driver when he arrives. This is usually the down payment which maybe the half of the total due. Be sure that you and the driver agree on the contents and the condition of the car before leaving.
Upon delivery, be sure that, you or someone trusted is available for when the car arrives at it's destination. This person must also have the final form of payment and is able to sign off on the condition of the car.
