Can I Ship a Car I’m Still Paying For?

Don't fret whenever you need shipping services on a vehicle that you're still paying for, don't fret- because it is usually possible. Of course, depending on whether the car is shipping overseas or domestically, the documentation you must present may differ. Nevertheless, getting the car where it needs to go is almost always possible.

If you're still paying for the vehicle that you wish to haul, you'll need a copy of the lien and possibly more information provided by the lien holder. The lien holder can deny the right of transport if they so choose. Usually, as long as you're in good standing with them and not behind in payments, they'll agree to the transport.

Aside from the lien agreement and other relevant documentation from the lien holder, you'll need proof that the vehicle is fully insured. All licensed transport companies will carry at least a minimal amount of insurance coverage, but this is only during the vehicle's delivery process of the vehicle. If the car is to ship to another country, customs might also require the original title might also be required by Customs. An international auto transporter with experience will know how to deal with such affairs.

How A Transport Company Can Help…

When you hire a longstanding hauling company, they'll have professionals onboard who are familiar with the ins and outs of shipping vehicles and the documentation needed if the car is not yet paid off. Once you explain the circumstances and the details of the transport and vehicle, they'll inform you of all the documentation that is required to make a lawful transport.

In most cases, assembling the necessary paperwork and evidence shouldn't be too difficult to gather the paperwork and evidence needed in most cases. Certain lien holders, however, may object to the vehicle being shipped elsewhere, and transport firm options are limited in this situation. The lien holder may be more receptive to the proposal if the car is being exported due to a job relocation due to promotion or other comparable conditions.
