The Policy of Personal Items on A Vehicle Shipment
Whether or not to keep on the auto shipment is something many customers ask. Each hauler company has unique rules for its customers to adhere to. Most haulers allow customers to keep personal things on a shipment but will regulate the amount. In most cases, you can keep things not exceeding 100 lbs. Ensure to read the conditions of a transporter before leaving any equipment in the vehicle
Why You Should Not Keep Personal Items in Your Vehicle
Most auto transport companies do not prohibit customers from keeping personal equipment in the automobile. However, we discourage customers from keeping items in the car for several reasons.
Risk Of Theft
First, items kept on the shipment are a risk for damage or theft during shipping. Remember, the carrier truck ferrying your car will make multiple stops as the driver must rest, eat and fuel. In addition, auto-carrier drivers cannot spend more than eight hours on the road. The carrier truck driver may not be in a position to always be on the look for your belonging during shipping.
Damage
Even the most careful or experienced drivers are bound to make mistakes. They could be forced to make compromising decisions like emergency braking or driving off the road. In such cases, items kept in the car, especially delicate ones, could damage. So, if you must keep any things on the car during transit, avoid keeping fragile items.
Additional Weight to The Trailer
The FMCSA, a federal agency that governs the auto shipping industry has weight limitations for auto carrier trucks. In this case, a single axle is 20,000 lbs. for a single axle truck, 34,000 lbs. for a tandem axle and 80,000 lbs. and gross weight. Because of these weight limitations, the transport company has a reason to restrict customers from keeping items in the vehicle.
In some cases, belonging kept in the car pose a risk to other auto in transit. Take a case where a thief breaks into one car and finds valuable items in the car. They could end up breaking into all other automobiles to find similar.
Do I Pay for Items Kept in the Car?
You could save a few dollars by keeping a few in your vehicle during shipping. Keeping stuff on a car shipment also greatly affects auto transport costs. The more weight of the car shipment, the higher the cost and vice versa. And because you want to cut down the auto transport cost as much as possible, keeping on the car during shipping is something you should avoid as much as possible.
Before you sign the contract with the transport company, ask about the limitations or extra fees placed on personal things on a vehicle shipment. Otherwise, you could end up paying much more than the amount you were attempting to save.
Conclusion
Keeping personal items in a vehicle may look like a good idea as it reduces your traveling load. However, it is risky, as you could lose your items or pay much more than expected to ship your automobile. Instead of jeopardizing your items' safety, we advise you to hire a hauler company to move your items.
Inform the carrier company if you must keep anything on your vehicle shipment. That way, they will take necessary safety measures to secure items in the vehicle.
