How does AUTOCARRY work to ensure
that my vehicle arrives on time, and undamaged?
We start with comprehensive, best-practice processes drawn from our
25 years experience. But what matters most is our drivers. We
hire only quality, trained professionals with extensive experience in auto transportation.
Then, we school and train them ourselves to make sure they understand
our standards and procedures, and share our commitment to excellence.

How will my vehicle be insured?
And what happens if theres damage during my auto shipping?
We insure your vehicle with a $600 deductible. Damage caused by our
truck during auto truckaway service is covered, subject to the deductible.
Events outside our control -- such as hailstorms, fluids dripping
from your car, or vandalism -- are not covered.

How much advance notice do
you need to transport my vehicle?
Although we prefer up to 23 days notice, we can accommodate your car hauling with
as little as 7 days notice.

How many days will it take for
my vehicle to arrive at its destination?
That depends on distance, among other factors. If your vehicle is
being moved via auto truckaway service -- in other words, on a truck carrying
more than one vehicle -- we provide arrival time frames. If your vehicle
is being driven to its destination by an individual driver ("auto driveaway"
service), we can typically provide a specific delivery date. Please
note that federal law now limits drivers to only eight hours of driving
per day, regardless of traffic or other issues, and this can impact
schedules.

How will you inform me when
my vehicle arrives?
Well call you to let you know and well give you
enough notice for you to make plans to receive your vehicle.
Back to top
Does AUTOCARRY offer door-to-door
vehicle relocation service?
Yes, your car can typically be delivered to your door, unless you
request for it to be delivered elsewhere.
Back to top
Can someone else pick up my
vehicle?
Yes. Please let us know in advance, preferably when you place your
order.
Back to top
What should I do to get my
vehicle ready for transport?
First, please make sure there are no protruding parts that could be
damaged, such as antennas. Second, remove any "after-market"
parts. Third, if your car is equipped with an alarm, please prepare
it for shipment, so it will not sound during transport. Also, be sure
to remove any form of E-ZPass as well.
Back to top
Can I leave personal items
or household goods in my vehicle while youre moving it?
Sorry, unfortunately not. United States Department of Transportation
regulations prohibit this. As a result, items you leave in your vehicle
arent covered by vehicle transportation insurance. Moreover,
they can cause damage to your vehicle by moving around, or place your
vehicle at greater risk for theft.
Back to top
Does my vehicle need to be
in working order?
No. However, there are additional costs if the car doesnt run.
Back to top
Can you store my vehicle until
Im ready to pick it up?
Yes. Three days of storage is free of charge. We charge approximately
$8 per day after that, depending on location.
Back to top
Does AUTOCARRY handle specialty
vehicles such as classic cars or exotic auto transport?
Yes. We ship specialty vehicles in safely enclosed trucks.
Back to top
Do you serve "snowbirds"?
Absolutely! In fact, we specialize in express service to Florida and
other warm-climate locations for individuals who travel south for
the winter. Just email us for more information!

What forms of payment does
AUTOCARRY accept?
We accept checks, cash, and all major credit cards to cover your car shipping needs.
