Be sure to inform the shipper well in advance if you have a non-operational vehicle because they may refuse to pick it up unless they had been informed and had planned for it. Vehicles that are not operable can still be transported but because they increase time and labor required for them to be picked up and delivered this will raise your rate. Rates increase or decrease based on current diesel fuel prices. Seasonal rate changes also impact the amount or rates for your car or truck delivery quotes, summer fuel prices are usually at their peak, and demand for car shipping is also the busiest in July and August. Typically, drivers can take payment on delivery by debit and credit cards, but many prefer COD and you may be able to get a small discount for paying in cash. Remember if you plan to pay with a check, you should get preapproval from the auto shipping company beforehand.

Have your oil, fluids, and tire pressure checked and make sure they are all at the proper levels, ensuring your vehicle is in good running condition helps the driver have a hassle-free transport which reduces delivery delays. If your vehicle will be going through cold or winter conditions make sure your antifreeze level is sufficient. If your vehicle should become disabled during the shipping process it would increase your rate. Make sure that you have and keep possession of a spare set of keys for your vehicle. This is a requirement from the Department of Transportation guidelines.

Be sure to remove all personal belongings from your car or truck, shipping companies do not provide insurance or security for anything other than your vehicle that they are transporting. Any non-standard accessories that increase your vehicles dimensions, as well as any non-retractable antennas, should be removed as a precaution to reduce the possibility of any damage when the driver will be loading and unloading your vehicle. Cleaning the interior and exterior of your vehicle can help you save time in the inspection process that you will complete at both your pick-up and delivery locations. Once again be sure you have removed any items that stick out from your car or truck and also fold your exterior mirrors in if possible as an added precaution. Any anti-theft system and alarms need to be disabled before your vehicle is loaded onto a car hauler, these devices could drain your battery and make the shipping driver's job more difficult and time consuming. Your vehicle might need to change places on the car hauler trailer a few times, depending upon the logistics of the other vehicles pick-up and drop-off locations, so it very important that if there are any oddities or quirks outside of the norm for driving your car or truck you need to convey this information to your delivery driver.
