Comparing Car Shipping Companies
Here are some suggestions to consider when it comes time to compare car shipping companies for your auto transport:
- Ask for references from the car shipping companies you're looking in to.
Check with them to see how their car shipping experience
went. Would they hire the same car shipping company again? What was their biggest problem and how was it resolved?
- Check with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) where the car shipping company is
located. See if there's any complaints against the auto transport
company and what the company did to resolve those complaints.
- Check with the US Department of Transportation
(DOT) for the car shipping company's licensing and bonding information.
- Get clarification on any portion of the car shipping estimate or conditions in the contract that you don't fully understand. Compare optional add-ons for each auto transport quote you receive.
- Compare auto shipping insurance offered by each company. Ask to see proof of insurance certificate for each
car shipping company you're considering.
- Compare pickup and delivery dates to see which works best for your situation. While the dates may be estimates, you should get an idea if the dates offered will work for you.
- Compare services. Does one car shipping company offer reasonably priced options that are most important to you than the others?
- How long has each car shipping company been doing business?.
- How and when will payments have to be made? Will you be charged extra if you want to use a credit card?
- Compare car shipping company contracts. Do you understand all of the terms? Are some terms better than others? You should only fully trust what you see in writing.
- Compare cancellation fees.
- How can you track the progress of your car shipment? Many
car shipping companies offer online tracking through the use of satellite GPS systems tracking your shipment.
- Do the car shipping companies you're considering have door-to-door service and are there any restrictions on where
they'll pick up and deliver? Some car shipping companies only travel between major cities and will not actually pick up and deliver
at your door. If that's the case, will you be able to make arrangements to get the car to them and to pick it up when it reaches its destination?
- Do any of the car shipping companies you're comparing feature any special
equipment or services that are important to you?
