Inoperable vehicles can often be transported when this condition is disclosed before booking. Special loading equipment such as a winch may be required and can affect service availability and pricing.

Transit time varies based on distance, route, carrier schedule, weather, road conditions and delivery access. Shorter regional shipments may move faster than cross-country vehicle transport. Ask for an estimated transit window for your specific route.

Door-to-door shipping means the carrier arranges pickup and delivery as close to your requested addresses as safely and legally possible. Large transport trucks may need to meet at a nearby accessible location when streets, gates, low trees or local restrictions prevent direct access.

Before pickup, remove personal valuables, reduce loose items, note existing vehicle condition, make sure the vehicle has adequate tire pressure and battery charge, and keep fuel at a low practical level. Provide keys needed for loading and unloading.

Policies for personal items may vary and personal property can create weight, safety and coverage issues. Ask your transport advisor about current shipment rules before placing anything inside the vehicle.

Providing preferred pickup dates helps plan your shipment. Vehicle transport is commonly scheduled within an availability window because driver routes and carrier capacity may change. Discuss timing requirements before booking.
