7 Reasons Why The Cheapest Auto Transporter May Not Always Be The Best

It is worth thinking twice about choosing the lowest-priced auto transport company. It may seem convenient and save you money, but the company could be skimming on coverage areas that you do not know about. Auto transport isn't cheap. You should be suspicious if the lowest price appears for your route. You may end up causing damage to your vehicle by paying more than you should.

1. A generic quote was given to you - Don't forget the hidden fees. Although it seems that your auto transport will be smooth, this quote might not include additional fees such as insurance, terminal fees, or door-to-door charges. To get a complete understanding of the price, it is advisable to call the auto transport company before accepting any quote.
2. The Quote was for Terminal-to Terminal Services - It is possible that the quote you receive may only be for terminal-to-terminal service. You will need to have your vehicle delivered to you if you don't live near the terminal. You will need to pay an additional fee for the vehicle storage and delivery.
3. Quality Insurance May not Be Included You might think that the insurance will cover your entire vehicle, even though it is discounted. If your vehicle is damaged, insurance may not cover it fully. Make sure you know exactly what your vehicle's total cost is. You may need additional insurance to cover any eventualities.
4. Car Carriers May Not Pick up Your Car. The shipping agent who offered the lowest price for your car must also pay the carriers a small amount. There may not be many carriers who are willing to pick your car up for a low price. It is possible that a carrier won't turn up on the day you need your vehicle delivered.
5. Carrier Type- Your quote might not include the type of carrier you desire. An open carrier option, which is typically 50 percent cheaper than enclosed transport, may be included in the quote. If you require enclosed auto transport, this will increase the cost.
6. Late Delivery The company with the lowest price might not be the best. Delivery is not guaranteed if you need your vehicle to arrive within a specific time. You might have to wait for your vehicle for several weeks because the company may have many vehicles to deliver.
7. Inability to Track Vehicle- A cheaper transport company won't have all the features of a higher quality company. It is possible that your vehicle cannot be tracked on its journey. This could mean that you don't know if your vehicle is on its correct route or if any damage occurred. It is possible that your vehicle may take longer to arrive than you expected.

These are just a few of the many reasons you shouldn't choose the lowest quote for transporting your vehicle. Research a company to ensure they are accredited by the Better Business Bureau, licensed, bonded, and insured. You can always ask the company questions if you have any doubts. Move Car Auto Transport will ensure that your vehicle arrives on time with a safe, quality transport.
