Our Insurance Policies

Insurance is one of the most important factors of car shipping and we have several policies available to suit your needs. Even without extra insurance from the insurance companies, all carriers are insured up to $1,000,000. Extra insurance is available but not required.


Transportation Time Tables

There are several things that could increase the time of a car shipment—things such as weather, traffic and a number of unforeseen occurrences are all factors. Car transportation takes anywhere between two to ten days - for cross-country trips it is between ten and fourteen days. If you need your vehicle by a specific date, CALL NOW to arrange your shipment to avoid delaying your schedule.


Open Trailers vs. Enclosed Trailers

Open trailers are the most common method and the least expensive. Enclosed car trailers are more expensive because less cars are being shipped at the same time. The enclosed trailer keeps them safe from the elements and this is best for classic cars, cars with expensive paintjobs, motorcycles and vehicles that are too low to the ground.


Vehicle Delivery

You should be present at the time of the delivery, if you cannot make it we request that you designate someone else or contact us.
