When you begin checking out a number of auto transport companies to get a feel for their services, be sure to request estimates on vehicle shipping rates from them on the kind of services you're looking for.

In your data sheet, mention

The date that you need the vehicle transported

The point of origin of the transportation and departure

The type of vehicle (passenger car, SUV etc.)

The kind of auto transport service you would like - door to door delivery or terminal to terminal delivery. The option you choose will have a bearing on your overall cost.

How you want your car to be transported, whether on a multi car trailer or a single car trailer. Multi car trailers are inexpensive, although you might not have the convenience of transporting your car on the exact date and time that you want to. Single car trailers are perfect for expensive models or exotic car transport. These do work out expensive, but are worth the cost if you have an expensive valuable car model that you wish to protect.

Whether you want your car to be shifted in enclosed car shipping or open transport. Again, enclosed transport will offer greater protection than transportation in an open trailer.

Any other special requests that you may have for the car transport service. If you will be unable to take delivery of your car at your home on the delivery date, and would like to take delivery at another location, let the car transport service know about it. It might affect the vehicle shipping quote they give you.
