What you can expect
How the service works
Request an estimate with pickup and delivery locations, vehicle details, operating condition, and timing. After you review the shipment terms, carrier matching begins. Pickup is confirmed when a qualified carrier accepts the route.
What affects cost
Distance is one factor. Vehicle dimensions, trailer type, location access, fuel prices, seasonal demand, carrier supply, operability, and pickup flexibility can all influence the market rate.
Preparing your vehicle
Wash the exterior enough to document its condition, photograph every side, remove valuables and loose accessories, leave roughly one-quarter tank of fuel, disable alarms, and provide a working key.
At pickup and delivery
Walk around the vehicle with the driver and record existing marks on the bill of lading. At delivery, inspect it again in good light before signing and retain the paperwork.
