Auto & Car Transport Services
Car transport is a service that offers customers to ship their cars from a determined location to another by hiring a driver to load their car onto a carrier and driving the distance. This allows customers to relax and take care of other things in the mean time. Transportation is something we either use, need, or even say a couple times every single day. In order for us to get places, and accomplish most of our everyday tasks, we need to transport ourselves to wherever is necessary in order to make these things happen. The same happens with your vehicle. Although vehicles are meant to transport us, vehicles also need to be shipped to where we need them. This is where car transport comes in. Hiring a company to ship your car from one place to another is a very common service nowadays and there are many advantages to it if done properly.
Driven or Carried. Customer's first needs to decide whether he wants his car driven to the location or carried. Car transport not only works by loading a car unto a carrier, as there are also certified drivers that will drive your car from point A to point B. Short distances may not be such a problem for this option, as car will not be driven for too long. Although hiring a driver may be less expensive, this will put miles on your car, it will wear off your tires and expose your car to unfortunate accidents. Driven carriers offer much more protection to your car without adding the extra miles or wearing and tearing your vehicle.
Open or Enclosed. Carriers offer also many options on how a car can be shipped, depending on customers’ needs and demands, due to this reason there are two types of main carriers: open or enclosed. The most common are open carriers, as these are less expensive to book and less expensive to maintain. Open carriers can haul up to 11 cars in a two floor platform. Each car is stacked in a single line one after the other and properly secured onto the carriers platforms by thick chains or tire straps. However, some customers have higher demands and need extra protection for their cars, therefore they book enclosed carriers. These carriers may also have 2 floors and can haul up to 9 cars at once. Cars are securely strapped to platform as well with tire straps or thick chains; only the whole carrier is covered with a canvas to protect cars from outside conditions. Another example of an enclosed carriers are closed metal containers that work as a box where car is put inside and safely transported.
Door-to-Door or Terminal-to-Terminal. Car transport offers many possibilities for customers in order to accommodate their needs. Many times customers are not available to be present when driver comes in or live in very secluded locations where driver cannot pull in to. For these cases, drivers unload cars into a terminal until owner can come and pick up the car, extra fees will be charged, yet car will be safely stored. There are two main services companies offer when picking up and delivering, either a close door to door service, or a less personal terminal to terminal delivery. A door to door service gives the customer a more convenient service and allows them to provide any address possible. In this case there must be someone present to give the car away and to receive it. Some companies however do not offer this service and require customers to drop off car at a terminal where they load their carriers. Delivery is done at another terminal where customer must go and pick up car as well
