Car Shipping: Simple Steps for Transport Success

Car Shipping: Simple Steps for Transport Success

Preparing to ship your car can be daunting, especially if you’ve never done it before, but it doesn’t have to be.  Choosing the right shipping company can significantly lower your stress level.

When deciding which company to use, do your homework. Consider a shipper’s insurance coverage, reputation, and experience, and follow these simple steps.

Seek a reputable company

How do you find a trustworthy shipping company? 

Ask for referrals from friends and family members. If that doesn’t work, search online for company reviews. 

Make sure a company is licensed, bonded, insured, and has a reputation for providing excellent services at reasonable prices. What goes into the cost of shipping a vehicle?

If relevant, see if the company you’re considering has experience shipping cars from state to state or internationally; you want someone who knows how to properly secure your vehicle to prevent damage in transit.

Get your vehicle ready

As soon as you book transport, make a list of what you need to do before the company picks up your car.

Your list should include cleaning and packing the car, removing personal belongings and items that may cause a delay at customs, getting the vehicle checked by an authorized mechanic, and having necessary repairs made. ShipLux can advise you on the requirements of car shipping that you must know.

Once you are satisfied that everything is in order, let your carrier know so they can schedule pickup.
