FAQ's

1. How much total time should I expect for the vehicle transportation?

The transportation time depends on the source and destination. On average, you can assume about 5 to 10 days for a vehicle being shipped from Chicago to Los Angeles. On receipt of your order, we will notify you about the time. However, you must understand that these quotes are simply averages and delays are possible.

2. Am I eligible for compensation, in case of a mishap?

All in-transit damages incurred solely due to any sort of negligence on the Carrier’s part are eligible for a compensation claim. A minimum insurance of $750,000 can be assumed. You are responsible for submitting us a certificate of insurance that clearly identifies us as an additional insurer. Cargo insurance is also available, however the insurance amount depends on the size and type of the cargo.

3. How do you define door-to-door service?

This means that the auto shipper will try his/her best to gets as close to your door as possible. You should understand that often there are legal and safety restraints and a desired pick-up or delivery proximity to the house is not always possible. Low-hanging trees or wires, narrow streets or tight turns can limit the truck from getting near the house.

4. When should I take off from work?

At most times, we will be able to pick-up your vehicle when you are available. We will let you know the date (and confirm it) when the truck will reach your home. It’s advisable not take off from work until a confirmation is received from our side. Your presence is indispensible at the time of pick-up.

5. What do I need to do, in case damage is found on the vehicle after delivery?

We strive to deliver the vehicle as safely as possible. Moreover, signed agreements before pick-up and after delivery assure that we both are on the same page. In case you find that the vehicle has incurred damage during transportation, you should pay the tariff, file the insurance claim in writing and contact us within the 24 hours of delivery.

6. Do I have to be there at the pick-up date or can I leave the vehicle somewhere?

It is very important that someone is available to sign the agreement at the time of pick-up. However, if you insist, you can drop the vehicle in one of our terminals in your area. You will be charged an additional fee for this service. Moreover, you will need to sign the agreement at some day before the pick-up, else your consent will be implied.

7. What items are allowed in the car during transportation?

We do not prefer putting any personal belonging in the vehicle while it is being transported. Since delays are sometimes likely, items that are expected to reach before a pre-defined date, such as presents, documents etc., should not be placed in the vehicle. Moreover, all items should be kept safely in a bag which should be placed securely in the trunk. You should read the Terms and Conditions page for more information.

8. Would you require driving my car?

Your car will used for the transportation purpose only. The auto shipping driver may need to drive the car during the procedure, so it’s requested to keep the fuel tank filled (not more than ¼).

10. Do I need to prepare my vehicle before getting it hauled?

It is advisable to bring the vehicle to order before handing over to the auto shipper. Make sure there is sufficient fuel in it and it’s in operable condition.
