The Best Way To Choose A Car Shipping Company
When moving, persons often think of the household goods, but what about the cars. Unless you are willing to drive those cars cross country in the move, you are going to need to find a car shipping company.
In order to find a good company, you can go directly to the website of the company that your are interested in and request a quote or you can find one of several websites that offer you five to ten quotes by submitting only one form. Be sure that you enter in the information as accurately as possible for the most accurate quote. If your vehicle has been modified in any way, the standard quote you get from the internet may not be accurate, since modifications often add weight. If the vehicle is not running, you may also be charged more since it will be more difficult to load and unload.
Be careful about choosing the lowest price. Some companies give a very low quote, but do not yet have a carrier that will agree to the quote. Without a carrier, the vehicle will not be moved. You will then start to hear about additional costs so that low quote may cost more than the originally higher quote.
Check out any company you are considering by doing an internet search. Also check with the Better Business Bureau and ask around. You may have friends or co-workers that have used a company and can give you their own personal review.
If you are dealing with a broker, be sure that he is bonded. The carrier you use should be insured and licensed.
Once you are confident in the company you are choosing, book the order. Be sure that you get either an e-mail or a fax confirmation. Read all the paperwork or e-mails that the company sends you before signing the contract. Also, do not forget that an electronic signature is just as binding as a virtual signature.
Prepare your vehicle for transportation. Remove any personal or valuable items from the car. Many carriers require that you have less than one-quarter tank of gasoline, since this will decrease the weight of the vehicle and increase their fuel economy as they transport your car. In addition, you will not be allowed to fill the car with any moving goods. Wash your car before pickup so that all of the dings and scratches are easily visible at the inspections.
The carrier should inspect your vehicle at the time of pickup. Any damage to the vehicle will be noted and you will be asked to sign the inspection form. Keep the copy that the carrier gives you until you pickup your vehicle.
Once your vehicle has been delivered, you will perform an inspection to be sure that it is in the same condition as when it was picked up. Take your time with this inspection, because once you have signed this form, you will not be able to make any further claims about damage to the vehicle. If there are additional damages, the carrier needs to sign the form and you need to get a copy of the form.

Hi,
The vehicle is well maintained, no damages or scratches. I recently moved in Glasgow, MT with my new job and I have the vehicle here with me.You will inspect the vehicle before the payment will be made. The shipping and insurance are included in the price because I won a promotion at Alpine Auto Transport (1 free shipping). You will also receive all necessary documents in order to finalize the purchase. I am selling the vehicle under market value because I need to pay the bank. Email me back if you're interested and have further questions.
Specs: 2002 Toyota Camry LE Sedan // 81,380 miles // 1 Owner // Clear Title // Engine: 2.4L L4 FI DOHC 16V // Transmission: Automatic // Color: Super White with Stone Cloth Interior // Air Conditioning // Cruise Control // Cloth Seats // CD Player // Keyless Entry // Non-Smoker // Garage Kept.
Thank you all for posting this and making it viewable on a search engine. I will be more wary about scammers on CL. Hope they catch this culprit and no one else gets scammed. Cheers!
