Know your Car Shipping Option

When it comes to auto transport services, there are many different options available for your car. There are many ways of shipping a vehicle, down below are the type of shipping options which may be appropriate for your vehicle.

Open Carrier

Under open carrier your vehicle is shipped in an open roof trailer exposed to the earth elements. Open carriers save your time as your car is picked and delivered faster, but this service is not suitable during winter as your vehicle is exposed to harsh cold weather.

Enclosed Carrier

This premium service gives you the luxury features like higher insurance, constant communication, and GPS tracker. This carrier service protects your vehicle from road debris and cold harsh weather during December month, but cost extra. You can reduce this cost by using our special December 75 Percent Discount and ship your vehicle using enclosed carrier at low cost.

Customized Delivery

Under customized delivery, your car would be picked from your doorstep and then delivered to your destination at the exact location. With this service, you are not required to pay the charges of vehicle terminals, as your vehicle would be picked and delivered to the specified location.

How to Prepare your Automobile for Vehicle Shipping

Now that you have hired the auto shipping company to deliver your car, now is the time to prepare your vehicle for shipping in order to keep the risk of damage to your vehicle minimum and prevent any additional cost that may appear. 


Record any existing Damage

Inspect your vehicle entirely for any damage, including any dents, scratches, and paint chips, and at last take clear picture of these defects. You can insert these photos with your written document, so that any new scratches or dents cannot be argued by your car transport company. Once the car is collected for shipping, mark these photographs on the Bill of Lading.

Remove Personal Items

Auto transporters are not permitted by law to transport any personal items in the trunk of the car. However, some auto transport companies allow personal items confined in the trunk, but they charge extra money. Placing personal items in the car increases the probability of theft when delivering your car.

Perform Mechanical Inspections

Mechanical problems can cause many delays, and above all, can cause extra charges from vehicle shipping company. Getting your vehicle fixed before transporting is the way to reduce any hidden charges that may occur during auto shipping.

Other Important Thing to Note

Make sure to check the battery condition. The battery should be fully charged and firmly placed in its supporting bracket. You should also make sure that your fuel tank is 1/4th filled, or else it will only increase the net weight of the trailer. Also make sure to disable your alarm, as it can go off during shipping.

Common Misconception Relating Auto Shipping

At Ship-A1 we understand how your vehicle is a prized possession that is very close to your heart. When it comes to transporting your vehicle, we know how easy it is to get confused with the approach. For people who knows the ins and outs of the vehicle transport industry, transporting vehicle for them is a fulfilling effort. The problem arises when what about the auto shipping you knew is not valid.


You should choose the Lowest Price service for shipping your vehicle: Majority of people believe that getting a cheap quote for a car transport service is going to save them money. Keep in mind that, booking with the highest bidder may seem over to overpay, but it is better to be safe than sorry when it comes to auto shipping.


Open carriers are the worst kind of car carrier service: I think we all can agree that we have a bad image of open carriers and the misconception that our vehicles would be treated poorly and would get scratches. However the reality is completely different, open carriers can be an easy and low risk procedure when it is in the reliable hands. Whether it is an open carrier or enclosed carrier car transport, in the end, it depends on how vehicle transport workers handles your car.


Shipping quotes are always right: When hiring a vehicle shipping company make sure to read the quote carefully, so that you know what price covers what and so that you are not surprised by things that may not be covered.
