Your transport requirements can greatly impact the cost of having your auto transported. You can save significantly by choosing open transport instead of enclosed. Auto dealerships safely receive autos from open car carrier trailers every day. To save money we highly recommend this option unless you are shipping an irreplaceable antique, sports car, race car, or luxurious vehicle. Other important cost factors include the size, weight and type of car or truck. The body type such as sports car, off-road vehicle, minivan, full-size crossover and sports coupe you are shipping can also impact your rate. Typically, the larger the vehicles size, the higher the transport cost. If your vehicle has any non-standard accessories that have altered the length, width, or height of your vehicle they can also increase the cost of transport. Listed below are some of the non-standard accessories that can increase cost.

• Rear bumper guards
• Grill guards
• Camper trailers
• Oversized antennas
• Roof rack
• Side steps
• Trailer hitch
• Running boards
• Extended side mirrors

Utah 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.

• Season - Moderate Impact
• Inoperable - Major Impact
• Shipping Schedule - Moderate Impact
• Multiple Vehicles - Moderate Impact
• Open or Enclosed - Major Impact
• Pick-up Location - Minor Impact
• Fuel Cost - Moderate Impact
• Door to Door - Major Impact
• Terminal to Terminal - Major Impact

Careful preparation is the most effective way to prevent any issues with your Utah vehicle delivery. If your vehicle is inoperable or partially inoperable it can still be shipped although the extra logistics, time, and labor will be reflected in your rate. You MUST inform the carrier of any such defects BEFORE you arrange your shipping schedule. Typically a pick-up driver that arrives without prior knowledge that a vehicle is inoperative will refuse to take possession of that vehicle. Always verify that both your pickup and delivery addresses are accurate. Do not utilize your vehicle as a secondary shipping container. Weight is an important calculation in determining your rate and personal belongings are usually not insured. Also leave no more than a quarter tank of fuel in your vehicle.

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.

Communication is critical to an easy auto transport. Our Utah auto transport partners will attempt to keep you informed every step of the way. Our partners typically deliver on-time, however occasionally situations created by weather, road conditions, or other traffic problems are possible. Keeping an open line of communication to your carrier or driver can help eliminate a lot of stress.

When selecting door to door transport services, local road conditions can impact pickup and delivery times and locations. Most auto transports are accomplished by semi-trucks. These big rigs are difficult to maneuver on narrow roads and streets. Utah has 97,448 miles of highways and byways with many rural roads and other road conditions that will prevent or limit access for semi-trailers. 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 truck stop, shopping plaza or other open area is often the solution. 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 Utah. Below are some of the road conditions to consider when selecting a pickup or drop-off location.

• Railroad tracks
• Extreme grades
• Narrow streets
• Low overpasses
• Weight restricted bridges
• Dead end streets
• Narrow bridges
• County road
• One way streets
