| 5. What about pick-up and delivery rates? Ask for estimated pick-up and delivery times from your car transport company. You should be able to get a 3-day window for pick-up. Once pick-up is made, your car transport or auto driveaway company should provide you with a fairly precise estimated delivery date. If you need an exact date for pick-up, most car transport and auto driveaway services can pick-up your car and hold it at a terminal for an additional charge. 6. Where can I get references? While individuals are generally reluctant to act as references because of the "nuisance factor," corporate clients are usually willing to do so. Also, van line companies refer many car transport and auto driveaway companies. Ask for several references, if possible. 7. Releasing your car to the carrier Prior to leaving your car with a driver or car transport company, be sure you receive an "Original Inspection Report." This report provides pick-up and delivery information, current mileage, and most importantly, shows the condition of your car at time of pick-up -- pre-existing scratches and dents, cracked glass/mirrors, general paint condition, etc. Keep this report and use it when you receive your vehicle. 8. Accepting your vehicle for delivery At the time of delivery, inspect your vehicle and compare the condition and mileage against the "Original Inspection Report" provided by your car transport company at origination (see item above). Many car transport companies also provide a copy of this report at time of delivery. If there are inconsistencies, note them as exceptions and be sure the driver signs it. Never accept your vehicle at night if you cannot verify its condition -- without being viewed and signed by the driver, you have little recourse if damage had occurred during transit. |
