Answers
Questions we get before every booking
What does an auto transport broker do?
An auto transport broker connects you with reliable car carriers who can ship your vehicle. We handle the logistics, scheduling, and communication so you don’t have to search for a transporter yourself.
How do I get a car shipping quote?
You can request a free quote online or by phone. Just provide your car’s details, pickup and drop-off locations, preferred transport type, and timeframe.
Is my car insured during transport?
Yes. All carriers we work with are fully licensed and insured. Your car is covered under the carrier’s insurance while in transit.
What’s the difference between open and enclosed transport?
Open transport is more affordable and the most common method, but your car is exposed to weather and road debris. Enclosed transport offers extra protection for luxury, classic, or high-value cars at a higher cost.
How long does car shipping take?
Shipping times depend on the distance, route, and time of year. Most cross-country shipments take 7–10 days, while shorter distances can take 1–5 days.
Can I ship a car that isn’t running?
Yes. We can arrange transport for non-running vehicles, but it may cost more because special equipment is required to load and unload the car.
Do I need to be there when my car is picked up or delivered?
Yes, either you or an authorized representative needs to be present to sign paperwork and hand over or receive the keys.
How far in advance should I book my transport?
We recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks ahead for the best rates and availability. For urgent moves, we also offer expedited shipping options.
Can I put personal items in my car during shipping?
We advise against it. Most carriers do not allow personal belongings due to insurance restrictions, and extra weight can increase costs.
How do I pay for my car shipment?
We usually take a small deposit to secure your booking, with the remaining balance paid upon delivery directly to the carrier in cash, cashier’s check, or money order.
