Door-to-Door Car Shipping
Door-to-Door service is provided by most auto transport companies. The transport company will pick up and deliver your vehicle as close to your door as possible. Keep in mind, semi-trucks and trailers can’t easily make clearance in some residential streets and apartment communities. If necessary, work out an accessible parking lot to load or unload your car with your provider in advance.
Getting a Car from an Independent Seller
Have you bought a new car on eBay or Craigslist and you need it delivered? Talk to the seller directly and see if they have any suggestions on carriers, or if they’re able to get the vehicle to you. We highly suggest considering your options if they don’t have a solution. Research carriers who may be able to get the vehicle. Compare their pricing, services, and talk to them to see what kind of experience they have. Let the seller know who you choose to go with, and the time frame for pick up.
Shipping a Car from a DealershipÂ
Maybe you’re the dealership and you’re trying to complete a sale with an added value of shipping the car to the buyer, or you could have just purchased a vehicle from a dealership and need to get it delivered. Either way, you need to contact a professional car shipping company to help out.
If you are a dealer, be sure to investigate the carrier’s background first to make sure they have completed shipments like this. It’s important to know that when the vehicle is delivered, there is customer service included in the experience. This helps you retain customers, and get referrals for new customers.
Purchasing cars from afar, or without a way to get to the dealer can bring the need for a car delivery service. If the dealer can’t get the vehicle to you, start looking yourself for car carriers. It’s important to look at the experience the service providers, as well as the pricing. While saving on the bottom line, especially after a large purchase, sounds great, it’s more important to make sure your car is delivered safely.
