If you get a quote from a car shipping company that is $200 or more higher than most of the competition it is likely that company has a larger overhead and must profit more in order to cover their expenses. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but why should you pay for a company to have nicer offices and have catered lunches when all auto shipping companies use the same load boards and carrier network? http://www.pagellan.com/scottayres">http://www.pagellan.com/scottayres">@scottayres

The most common form of shipping a car is via an open carrier. Probably 75% or more of the car moves around the country are done via an open carrier. This is the type of carrier you see moving to and from a car dealership. It is the most common method of shipping and is the least expensive. It is also more readily available than an enclosed carrier. Keep in mind that you must have at least 3 inches of ground clearance to load via an open carrier. http://www.pagellan.com/scottayres">@scottayres www.iqtransport.com

Alot of car shipping brokers will tell the customer that their car is "Fully Insured" during the transport. Simply a lie. The car will be covered against any damages directly caused by the driver after a $1000 deductible. It will not cover theft, windshields, damage from road debris or from weather. Another lie most companies will tell. http://www.pagellan.com/scottayres">@scottayres www.iqtransport.com

ENCLOSED CAR TRANSPORT: If you have a classic car, exotic car or a car you really want to baby then you NEED an enclosed car carrier. With your priced possession inside one of our softside or hardside enclosed carriers your car will be protected from the outside elements during the transport. Also if your car only has 3 inches of ground clearance or less it has to be moved with an enclosed carrier. http://www.pagellan.com/scottayres">@scottayres www.iqtransport.com

Usually they will head South around November to December and head back in mid May through July. When this happens the amount of cars being shipped the direction of migration more than quadruples. Expect the price to ship a car to increase $200 during this time. http://www.pagellan.com/scottayres">@scottayres www.iqtransport.com

When shipping a car the general rule of thumb is you can put about 100lbs of stuff into the trunk of the car without any issues. Out of sight, out of mind. If a truck is overweight the weigh station will charge them per pound overweight.My advise is to limit it to the trunk, limit it to clothing and keep it under 100lbs http://www.pagellan.com/scottayres">@scottayres
