The advantage
When you opt for a brokerage firm, you may have to drive your car to a transport depot. The broker then gets an actual carrier that comes to pick the car up from the transport depot and deliver it to the agreed location. You also often don’t get to know if the price charged is fair or not. Opting to work with the carrier firm on the other hand is way more convenient. Carrier firms rely on their own efforts to get clients. They therefore offer a more hands-on experience by meeting the client from their residence. This way, you don’t have to drive the car to a depot for transportation.
Additionally, using a carrier firm guarantees you delivery to specific addresses as the planning is done in person, i.e. between you and the driver shipping the car. This is how A-1 Auto Transport is able to offer car delivery services to every location when shipping cars to or from Loudon County. We serve Greenback City, Lenoir City, Loudon City, Philadelphia, Farragut, Tellico Village, Dixie Lee Junction and Unitia.
Services
- Open carrier services: Open carriers are another way that A-1 Auto Transport offers affordability to the clients. They are simply trucks fitted with flatbed racks. The cars are loaded onto the racks, secured using straps and off they go! No intermodal container is required, making it cheaper than enclosed shipping. The open nature of the carriers also adds a resource sharing advantage whereby several assorted vehicles are shipped at once. This advantage comes in handy for clients shipping fleets of cars.
- Enclosed carrier services: Here, an intermodal container is used when shipping cars. The container offers extra protection against weather conditions, tree twigs and small pebbles that may damage the car during transportation. It also offers privacy, as no one gets to see what’s being shipped. The extra protection and privacy however come at an extra cost. It’s expensive to hire an enclosed carrier. We advise use of enclosed carriers when shipping high-end vehicles, the kinds of Rolls Royce or Lamborghinis.
