One of the biggest factors in the cost of your auto transport is selecting open or enclosed transport. Auto dealerships safely receive vehicles every day on open car trailers. To save money we highly recommend this option, unless of course you are shipping an irreplaceable luxury, high end sports car, or antique vehicle. Other factors that impact shipping cost include the size, weight and type of car or truck. The body type such as mid-size crossover, kingcab pickup, full-size car, crossover and lower rider you are shipping can also affect your shipping cost. Usually the larger the vehicle the higher the shipping rate. If your vehicle has any non-standard accessories that have altered its dimensions they can also increase the cost of shipping. Below are some of the accessories that can increase cost.

• Lift kits
• Rear bumper guards
• Nerf bars
• Roof rack
• Extended side mirrors
• Running lights
• Oversized tires
• Trailer hitch
• 4 wheel drive

Georgia auto transport rates are computed per mile and regularly fluctuate in direct relation to fuel prices. You can typically reduce your rate by dropping off your vehicle at a freight terminal and then picking it up from another freight terminal near your delivery address. If you require or prefer door to door pickup/delivery keep in mind that both the pickup and delivery addresses must be accessible to full sized trucks. If your vehicle is inoperable it can still be shipped open transport but as this increases time and labor for the carrier it will cost a lot more. You must inform the carrier company in advance if your vehicle has any operational defects. How you choose to pay your bill may also affect your final rate. Some carriers prefer COD but most will accept credit card payments as well. If you intend to settle your invoice by check it is important to arrange this with the shipper beforehand.

The best way to avoid any problems with your Georgia car shipping is by careful preparation. You can ship an inoperable vehicle, but it will be more expensive. Vehicles that are not steerable and/or do not have operable brakes will cost significantly more. You MUST inform the carrier of the vehicles condition and be prepared to pay a higher rate. Many drivers will not transport an inoperable vehicle if they have not been first notified. Be sure that both your delivery and pick up addresses are correct. Remember that weight is a major factor in your rate. Do not use your vehicle as a method to ship other personal items and have only a quarter tank of gas or less in your vehicle at the time of pick up.

When the driver arrives at your pick-up location you will receive a bill of lading. It is crucial that you verify the accuracy of everything in this document. You and the pick-up driver will then carefully inspect your car or trucks condition, notating any defects such as dents, scratches, cracked or broken glass etc. on the bill of lading. Many customers and carrier drivers will take photos of the vehicle being shipped at this time. This documentation can be important in the unlikely event of any damage incurred throughout the vehicles transport process. Because we check out all of our affiliated carriers and drivers documentation before we partner with these associates, damages or other problems are rare. However, in the unlikely event that any unfortunate problems or issues do arise you should definitely document them and also contact the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.

Keeping an open line of communication with your carrier or driver is the best thing you can do to assure a problem free auto shipping experience. Our Georgia auto transport partners will attempt to keep you informed throughout the entire transport process. Our partners typically deliver on-time, however occasionally situations created by road conditions, weather, or other traffic related delays are possible. Staying in contact with your driver will help reduce a lot of stress.

When selecting door to door transport services, local road conditions can impact pickup and delivery times and locations. The majority of auto transports are accomplished by semi-trailers. Big rigs are difficult to maneuver on many roads and streets. The state has 271,920 miles of highways and streets with many rural roads and other road conditions that could prevent or limit access for big rigs. If the pickup and/or delivery locations have any obstructions that could prevent the truck from accessing the location we recommend you select a different location. This can easily be accomplished by coordinating with the driver. Selecting a mall or supermarket parking lot is usually best. Traffic can also impact pickup and/or drop-off schedules. We recommend you check road and traffic conditions for delays. Check here to find current traffic conditions in Georgia. Below are some of the road conditions to consider when selecting a pickup or drop-off location.

• Low hanging tree branches
• Low overpasses
• Dead end streets
• Railroad tracks
• Low hanging phone cables
• Narrow bridges
• Road construction
• Extreme grades
• Weight restricted bridges
