Ohio to California Auto Transport Rates
Your requirements may greatly raise or lower the quotes you get for your Ohio to California auto transport. Choosing open rather than enclosed transport will significantly lower your rate. Choosing to use a freight terminal or car depot for your pick-up and delivery locations can get you a better rate than door-to-door delivery and also avoid delays from addresses that aren't accessible to semi-trucks. The size, weight, and body type such as roadster car, compact car, pickup truck, minivan and extended cab pickup, of your car or truck will also impact your cost. If your vehicle has any non-standard additions or anything that increases the size these items could affect your rate, having the actual dimensions of your car or truck can help make sure your quote is accurate. Below is list of some accessories that can affect your shipping rate.
- Lift kits
- Camper trailers
- Oversized tires
- Running boards
- Extended side mirrors
- Grill guards
- Running lights
- Front bumper guards
- Trailer hitch
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. Non-operational vehicles can still be shipped on open car haulers, but the time and labor required for the driver to load and unload them can significantly affect your rate. The current fuel price will be an important factor in calculating your rate. There are also seasonal rate changes in the car shipping business. The highest demand for vehicle shipping is in the summer, this results in the highest rates being in July and August each year. If you intend to pay by check, make sure that this will be acceptable before your vehicle is delivered. Most drivers favor cash payments and you may be able to get a discount for paying COD, however most companies also accept debit and credit card payments upon delivery.

It is important for you to remove any personal items from your inside your car or truck as shipping companies will not be responsible for safeguarding them nor will they carry insurance for anything other than the vehicles they are transporting. To prevent any possible damage, as a precaution you should remove any non-standard items and also any non-retractable antennas that could possibly be damaged when your vehicle is being loaded and unloaded from the car hauler trailer. Your vehicle will be thoroughly inspected by you and the driver at the pick-up and delivery locations, you can make this process easier by having washed your car or truck and cleaned the interior. Exterior mirrors, when possible, should be folded in and also verify that you haven't missed any other items that stick out from your car or truck. Assist your delivery driver by having any anti-theft or alarm systems disabled because if they become active your battery could be drained and create more time and work for the driver transporting your vehicle. Do not forget to inform the driver if your vehicle has any oddities or tricks that aren't standard to start and or drive your car or truck because it is possible that your vehicle will need to be reloaded to different positions on the car hauler trailer to accommodate the other vehicles.
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.
