The Best Auto Shipping For Service Members

Auto shipping companies have pricing structures that include the distance, time frame, time of year, and weight of the car. Auto brokers consider the following when estimating the cost to transport your auto: 1. Current location of the vehicle and the intended destination 2. Time frame – do you need to ship your vehicle urgently or do you have a little time to get your auto broker to find the best price 3. Fuel costs – most shippers use diesel, when the price of diesel increases, so do shipping costs. Ship your vehicle quickly if there is a drop in diesel price; 4. Whether you require door-to-door or terminal-to-terminal pickup and delivery 5. If you wish to ship your car enclosed or in an open carriage.

Your car will have standard cargo insurance from the carrier. This, however, doesn’t cover any damage that happens during parking and storage. That’s why we also offer our signature AFTA gap protection, which will cover up to $2,000 of your car’s private insurance deductible. Our gap protection also means that you can report any damages to your vehicle up to 48 hours after delivery.

Check the reputation of the auto transporters that you have received estimates form. Google reviews and the BBB are the best resources.
