• Wash the car and clean the interior. You want the vehicle to look its absolute best before being given to the transport company for shipping.
• Remove anything valuable from inside or outside the classic car. This may include DVD players, GPS systems, personal items, etc.

• Check the tire pressure and possibly take the vehicle to a mechanic for a tune-up and any minor repairs before transport.
