Florida to Iowa Auto Transport Rates
Your personal choices and preferences can have a significant impact on the rates you will pay for your Florida to Iowa auto transport. The least expensive and most common type of shipping is by open transport. Another way to save money on your vehicle shipping is to forego door-to-door delivery and opt to use freight terminals for your drop-off and pick-up locations. Weight is essential in determining your rate, also the body type such as full size pickup, full-size car, convertible, sports car and pickup truck, and size of your vehicle are important factors. Shown below are some accessories that may impact your shipping cost.
- Extended side mirrors
- Camper trailers
- Nerf bars
- Running boards
- 4 wheel drive
- Grill guards
- Trailer hitch
- Oversized tires
- Front bumper guards
If your vehicle is inoperable and you do not inform the shipper prior to the pick-up time the driver will likely refuse to take your vehicle. Vehicles that are not operable can be transported but they greatly increase the time and labor required for the driver to load and unload them which increases rates. Shipping rates fluctuate as fuel prices increase or decrease. Rates also fluctuate seasonally, summer is the high season in the car shipping business so the highest rates for delivery occur in July and August. You might be able to get a discount for paying COD, most drivers prefer COD payments, but carriers also typically accept debit and credit cards, however if you intend to pay by check you should make arrangements with your auto shipping company beforehand for approval.

Shipping Process

Next, you should review your quotes and then contact the shippers by phone to compare the services they are offering. After picking the carrier you will use, carefully read the shippers information and guidelines.
Reduce delivery delays by making sure your vehicle is in good condition for your shipping driver, have your oil and fluids checked and make sure your tire pressure is good. Also, if your car or truck will be in cold or winter conditions make sure your antifreeze is sufficient. If your vehicle becomes disabled or non-operable during transport it could increase your quoted rate. Check that you have spare keys as DOT guidelines
You should remove any personal possessions from your vehicle because shipping companies do not provide security or insurance for anything other than your car or truck they are transporting. You should remove any antennas that do not retract and also any other non-standard accessories that protrude from your vehicle as a precaution against any possible damage during the loading and or unloading of your car or truck. Having a clean and washed vehicle, both the interior and exterior, can help save you some time and make for a faster inspection process with the driver at your pick-up address. If your exteriors mirrors can be folded in you should do this and also recheck that you have removed any non-standard items that stick out as an extra precaution. For the benefit of your shipping driver you should disable all theft systems and alarms on your car or truck, an activated alarm could kill your vehicle's battery making the drivers job more difficult and labor intensive. It is possible that your vehicle will need to be loaded and unloaded more than once depending upon the destinations and pick-ups of other vehicles on the same car hauler trailers as yours, thus it is very important that you convey any tricks or oddities outside of normal operation to the pick-up driver if you hadn't previously disclosed them.
