Yes, someone must be present at the time of pick up and delivery of the vehicle. However, this does not need to be you specifically. Any trusted person over the age of 18 can release or accept your vehicle on your behalf, provide keys to the driver, provide final payment, and sign the initial and final inspection reports.

The short answer is yes. The long answer is that the total weight of these personal items cannot be more than a hundred pounds, cannot be above the window line, and should not be beloved items or high price valuables as they are not covered under insurance if they are reported as damaged or missing.

Absolutely! When vehicles are inoperable, a specific type of carrier is required that utilizes a winch to connect to your vehicle and safely pull it onto the truck. There are additional fees for inoperable vehicles due to the specialized equipment and additional work involved with safely securing the vehicle on the transporter. In the event your transport is in non-running or inoperable condition, please let our transport specialist know prior to quoting or assigning your vehicle for transport so we can discuss the details and obtain an appropriate carrier.

 Of course! Because we work with a number of valued and experienced shippers across the nation, we are able to ship vehicles of any size. Similar to those that don’t run, oversized and modified vehicles require specific carriers and transporters to accommodate them. Please let our transportation specialists know the specific details prior to establishing a quote or assigning your vehicle for transport so we can discuss the details, any additional fees, and obtain an appropriate carrier for your transport.

You sure can! Because we work with a number of valued and experienced shippers across the nation, we are able to ship vehicles with low ground clearance. Please be advised that any vehicle with clearance lower than 4 inches will require an enclosed trailer with a lift gate for transport. Because of this, additional fees may be involved in comparison to an open trailer transportation. Please let our transportation specialists know the specific clearance details prior to establishing a quote or assigning your vehicle for transport so we can determine the appropriate carrier requirements, discuss the details and any additional fees that may be associated.
