Over 90% of all vehicle are transported on a open trailer. It’s proven to be a very safe method with statistically very few problems. If you have a collector car or really expensive automobile, then we recommend shipping it in an Enclosed Trailer. Expect to pay about 30% more for an Enclosed transport.
Payment can be done in one of two methods:
Option 1: pay your deposit by Zelle or cashup once we have a carrier scheduled. The deposit ranges from $50-300 and it has already been included in your quote. The remaining balance (total quoted price minus the deposit) will need to be paid directly to the driver upon delivery, with certified funds: cash, cashier’s check or money order (we will let you know who to make it payable to).
Option 2: pay the full amount by Debit or Credit Card once we have a carrier scheduled. Depending on your price, there will be an extra $50-100 service fee.

When your car arrives at the final destination, check for any damage with a shipping company representative to see if you notice anything that indicates there has been damaged since the pre-shipping inspection. Be sure to look at the roof and undercarriage. After you sign the Bill of Lading stating that your car is received, your mover will prepare a statement of the vehicle’s condition for you both to sign. Read it carefully and be sure you know what you’re signing. If you disagree with any of the statements or details, ask for a correction.
