| "If you have to ship a car for the first time, you may have questions. Here are some tips for finding the right auto shipping company. You may wonder how long it will take for the car shipping company to deliver your car. Auto transports use a formula to determine approximate delivery dates. You take the total number of miles the vehicle transport will haul your car, and divide that number by 350. This is the approximate number of days the auto transport company will take to deliver your vehicle. It helps to remember that most vehicle transports haul many cars at a time. Most auto transport companies make their costs lower by filling their car carriers. Once you choose a car carrier, you'll make an appointment for the car carrier to get your car. If you want a particular day, you need to contact the auto shipping company well in advance. . If the auto shipping company has at least 5 days notice, you're stand a better chance of getting the car carrier on the day you wanted. On the other hand, if you are more flexible, the car carrier can often arrive in one to four days. You'll probably make a deposit when you sign with the car transport company. The balance is due when the auto transport delivers your car. While some car shipping companies require you to pay the full amount up front, most vehicle shipping companies will allow you to pay the balance upon delivery. If you're having the vehicle transport deliver your car to a port, you'll probably need to pay when they pick up your car. Auto shipping insurance is regulated by Federal law. However, your car will only be insured by the car shipping company for the Kelly Blue Book price. . Any modifications to your car won't be covered by the vehicle shipping company. If you have comprehensive car insurance, it can fill in the gaps in the car moving company's policy. Be sure, when you get your auto shipping quotes, to find out the terms of the car moving company's insurance. Car carriers will not accept or deliver a car to anyone who is not a legal adult. Only legal adults can inspect the car upon delivery, and sign the car carrier's inspection certificate. " |
