Auto shipping is a process of shipping the car from dealer�s lot or from any other locality that links shipping companies, consumers and dealers in the most efficient way possible. Because of the increasing demand and heavy traffic there are numerous auto companies that offers a reliable and affordable service. These companies provides auto transport checklist for car owners who are decided to transport their car using the service. Once you received the transport estimates and chosen the car transport service you need to follow the guidelines given in the checklist before the auto shipping company comes to pick up the vehicle or when you decide to leave your car at the service terminal. Following the guidelines will minimize potential problems that may arise at the point of time.
The first thing you need to make sure is that your car is safe and functioning. The transporters will make sure that the brakes and steering are working properly by driving the car on and off the carrier at some time during the delivery. Leaking fluids and the fluid level should be check to ensure that it is low enough to hold expansion. Usually a car transport truck has two levels and your car might be on the top of another person�s car. If in case your car leaks fluid to another vehicle, you will be liable for battery fluid or oil and coolant. It is best that you half fill the tank gas in the vehicle since full tank of gasoline adds more weight in transport.
You should be present during the inspection of your vehicle before shipping. Other companies require you to sign a bill of lading as well as details on the state of the vehicle. The checking is done both before the car is shipped and before the vehicle arrives at its destination. If it is impossible for you to be present during the inspection you may ask someone as your representative to be present during the inspection. You should check for the insurance service that the company is offering in case they damage your car accidentally. It will help you decide which company to choose by checking testimonials of previous customers.
Make sure that you have disabled anti-theft devices and alarms connected in the car. It might cause problems and unwanted expenses if the alarm goes off during the transport of the vehicle. Remove personal belongings except the tools that are needed such as spare tire and jacks. CD/DVD players, ground effects, lights, grill covers, wide mirrors and others should also be removed. Included also in the auto transport checklist the sealing of any open or tear seams on convertible tops to prevent fast-moving air that may cause further harm. Make sure that the radiator is prepared for new climates and has enough level of fresh antifreeze.
The auto transport checklist is important in avoiding harm and accident that may occur during transport. It will benefit both the owner and the transport company. It is also important to choose a transport company that will provide the best liability insurance.
