Shipping a car can seem daunting, but with the right preparation and a reliable transport company, it’s a straightforward process. At CRC Transport, we make car shipping hassle-free and efficient, guiding you through every step. Whether you're relocating, purchasing a vehicle online, or sending a car to a family member, our streamlined approach ensures a smooth experience from start to finish.
The first step in shipping your car is to get a free, no-obligation quote. With CRC Transport, you can quickly obtain an estimate using our online quote tool. Simply provide the pickup and delivery locations, vehicle details, and preferred shipping dates. Our system instantly calculates a competitive rate based on factors such as distance, vehicle type, and shipping method.
When shipping your car, you typically have two main options: open transport and enclosed transport. However, at CRC Transport, we specialize in open auto transport, which is the most affordable and widely used method.
Open auto transport involves shipping vehicles on an open carrier, capable of holding multiple cars. It’s the standard choice for most customers due to its affordability and availability. Despite being exposed to the elements, it remains a safe and reliable option. Our team takes extra care when loading and securing your vehicle to prevent any damage during transit.
Benefits of Open Auto Transport:
Once you’ve selected your shipping method and confirmed your quote, it’s time to schedule your car pickup. Our team will work with you to find a date that suits your needs. You can choose between door-to-door service or a convenient meeting location. We recommend booking your transport at least a week in advance to ensure availability, especially during peak seasons.
Properly preparing your car is essential for a smooth shipping experience. Here’s a quick checklist to get your vehicle ready:
On the scheduled pickup date, the CRC Transport driver will arrive at the specified location. Together, you will inspect the vehicle and fill out a Bill of Lading, which includes details like the vehicle’s condition, pickup location, and delivery destination. This document serves as the contract and is crucial for tracking the vehicle throughout its journey.
With our real-time tracking system, you can stay informed about your vehicle’s status from pickup to delivery. This feature gives you peace of mind, allowing you to check the location and estimated delivery time at any moment. Our customer service team is also available to answer any questions you may have throughout the process.
When your vehicle arrives at its destination, you or your designated representative will inspect it alongside the driver. This final inspection is to confirm that the car is in the same condition as it was at pickup. After signing the Bill of Lading, the transport process is complete, and your car is ready to hit the road.
Q: How long does it take to ship a car?
A: Delivery times vary based on distance, route, and other factors. Typically, coast-to-coast transport can take 7-10 days, while shorter routes may take 2-5 days.
Q: Is my vehicle insured during transport?
A: Yes, all vehicles transported with CRC Transport are fully insured. We provide coverage in case of damage during transit.
Q: Can I pack personal items in my car?
A: We recommend removing all personal items from your vehicle, as they are not covered by insurance and may add weight, impacting the transport process.
