Checklist For Car Transportation

When it comes to the Transport of your vehicle there are some simple things that you can do to make your Auto Transportation experience easier. The biggest and most important thing is to have your car prepared correctly before having CV Transportation pick it up. This will save you time and money in the long run. It will also cut down on the amount of time that the car will have to be inspected and will insure that your Vehicle Transportation experience is a success. We at CV Transportation care about our customers and we want you to have the best Car Transporting experience possible. Here are some quick and painless tips to getting you on your way to having a successful Vehicle Transportation experience.

Car Transportation Tip #1:

Most Vehicle Transportation companies will not allow you more than 100 lbs of personal belongings in the vehicle during Car Transport. These belongings will have to be put in the trunk. But remember, any personal items inside the vehicle will not be covered if lost or stolen during the transport of your automobile.

Car Transportation Tip #2

Your vehicle will need to be inspected with CV Transportation before Transport. To make the vehicle easier to inspect, please insure that the vehicle is clean. The exterior should have little to no dirt while all upholstery should be visible inside the car. The inspection of the vehicle is for your benefit. If something was to happen to the vehicle during Car Transport, and it was not a damage noted before transport, we at CV Transportation would take full responsibility. Another inspection will be administered at the destination.

Car Transportation Tip #3

You must make sure that you have personal insurance on your vehicle. Most Car Transporting companies will not repair damages due to normal road conditions or conditions of nature. For example, if your car was damaged while sitting on a parking lot, even if your vehicle was under the control of the auto transporter, your insurance would be responsible. The carrier is responsible only when the car is directly damaged by the Auto Transportation company.

Car Transportation Tip #4

Before Vehicle Transportation make sure that you only have a quarter of a tank of gas. No more, no less. This is to ensure that the car has enough gas for loading and unloading by the Car Transport company.

Car Transportation Tip #5

For most Car Transporting companies there is usually an extra charge if your vehicle is inoperable, has a camper shell, is lifted, is oversized, etc. The rule of thumb in Auto Transportation is that if it has anything on it that would make it harder to Transport, then you will probably be charged more for transport.

Car Transportation Tip #6

Please make sure that you have two complete sets of keys. One for you and one for the Auto Transportation company. This way the Car Transporting company will have access to load and unload your vehicle. Please make sure that the keys both, unlock the doors and unlock the ignition.

Car Transportation Tip #7

Please make sure that you disable your car alarm so that it does not get triggered during Transport.

Car Transportation Tip #8

Please be sure to provide a number where you can be reached at all times. This will enable the Car Transport company to easily contact you in case of an emergency. If the Auto Transportation company cannot contact you, your car may be left at a terminal where it will accrue fees.

Car Transportation Tip #9

Remember, that if moving in colder climate to make sure that you check all antifreeze and fluids in your vehicle before Transport. This will insure that no part of the engine will be harmed during the cold starts in frigid temperatures. The Auto Transportation company will usually not take responsibility for a problem that they did not directly cause.

Car Transportation Tip #10

Relax, and take a deep breath. We at CV Transportation transport hundreds of cars every month all over the globe. If you have taken the time to complete these simple steps before Car Transport your vehicle will be one hundred percent ready for Auto Transportation.
