The
very basic thought of moving a car from one location to another can be done by
driving it from one place to another. But what if there are long distances to
be covered, may be even overseas, you might want to reconsider the options
present. The car transportation services are of different types, from expert
professionals to part-time college students doing the job. The choice depends
on your budget and your preference of how it gets there.
The
open-air truck, which is the most popular way to transport a car cross-country.
Most of these commercial car shippers put cars on an open-air trailer or trucks
which are similar to the ones used for new cars. Most shippers will give a time
delivery window that ranges from seven to 21 days. It is easy to make sure that
how your car will be transported. Most shippers will move cars between certain
city hubs, unloading and loading the vehicles onto other trucks in order to
make the routes more efficient.
The
cost can also vary if you want door-to-door transport over
terminal-to-terminal. The second option is the enclosed truck, which you might
consider if you are concerned about the effect of weather on your vehicle. The
cost may go up about 60 percent higher, but it is worth the try especially if
you're transporting in the middle of winter or it is an exotic machine. Make
sure you take a look at the additional insurance involved.
Another
method is through professional driver service, which you may consider if you
don't mind adding the extra miles on your vehicle. These service providers will
arrange for drivers with more the 25 years of driving experiences and it makes
a great option for shorter distances and corporate vehicles as well as for
students going back home on their college break. Some professionals will also
help you in transporting your personal belongings.
The
next method is the non-professional driver. Consider this method when you are
running low on budget, get your car transported by someone who has a little bit
of experience in driving long distances and is known. Apart from these methods there are cargo containers
which are highly effective in overseas transport.
