Instant gratification is no longer a luxury in today’s tech-savvy world, it’s the norm as well as an expectation. You can order from eCommerce sites and have your purchases shipped to your home the very next day (or if you live in a big city in a matter of minutes or hours), and you can even ship your vehicle in 20 minutes or less. That stat is a lot better than taking a road trip or multiple road trips if you have multiple vehicles and a lot less cumbersome. While it may take more than 20 minutes for your car to be delivered, you can have the whole process of organizing your car shipping service completed in way under an hour! Think of all the free time you’ll have afterward…

How to Set Up Your Car Shipment in 3 Easy Steps

  1. Send the auto transporter your details.  This is step one. It takes about as long as booking a flight. You can go online to book your car shipping service or utilize the phone to speak to a live human for this step. This usually takes around five quick minutes to let the car shipping service know the details such as where your car is going to and from, the details of your car and the dates of your auto transport. They will work out a price and sync up their availability with your schedule.
  2. Prep your car for its shipment. You’ll want to clear out your personal items from your car before it is shipped. Most auto transport companies request that the fuel level is set at 1/4 of a tank. You should also snap a few pics of your car’s current condition for recordkeeping.  When your car is dropped off or picked up for its car shipping, you’ll take a quick walk around with the driver to document any dents or existing damage. (Think of the same experience you go through when you rent a car.)
  3. Receive your car at its final destination. You may opt to have door-to-door car shipping service or pick your vehicle from a centrally-located car shipping pick-up facility. Either way, you’ll likely do another walk around with your professional driver to document your car’s condition one final time. Note: arrangements can be made so you don’t have to be available during pick-up and drop-off services.
