If your vehicle is inoperable and you do not tell the shipper prior to the pick-up time the driver will most likely refuse to pick up your vehicle. Non-operational cars and trucks can be transported but they greatly increase the labor and time required for the driver to load and unload them which will increase your rate. Current fuel prices are a factor used in determining the rate you get. Seasonal rate changes are not something you can control unless timing is not important, summer is high season for the car shipping industry and rates are at their highest. Your method of payment might be able to save you some money on your rate, as most drivers prefer cash upon delivery, they may offer a discount for COD. Normally they will also take credit or debit cards but remember to contact your auto shipping company before the scheduled delivery date if you intend to try and pay by check.

• Inoperable - Major Impact
• Vehicle Accessories - Moderate Impact
• Open or Enclosed - Major Impact

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.
