Why Moving
Whether to drive or haul depends on distance, budget, and time. Delivery is good for long distances, say cross-country or a few states. However, you can drive there yourself when your destination is less than 500 miles. Also, when you don't have time and cannot afford to spend days behind the wheel, hiring a mover is the way.
The need to save a few dollars could tempt you to drive. However, when you add up the charges of fuel, food, accommodation, and repair, you will realize there is not much difference in the cost.
The bottom line is moving is convenient and gives value for money. It is simple and relieves you of the stress of moving your automobile.
Firms
Moving is a competitive industry. In the country, there are many companies that you can't miss finding one to move for you. The only challenging part is choosing a reliable, trustworthy hauler. The most important considerations when choosing a mover are experience, safety measures, insurance policy, rates, and customer reviews.
You need a shipper with at least ten years of experience and good standing among customers. The transporter you choose must have a comprehensive insurance policy to ensure full compensation in case of damage to it. Also, they must have positive customer reviews and a good rating at the Better Business Bureau.
Generally, a reputable mover should offer quality services at a competitive rate. The expense for in-country delivery should vary from $600 to $3000 depending on the type and model and distance.
Method
You have two major options when shipping, open and enclosed option. Both options are effective but vary in price and safety measures. The option you choose largely depends on the auto you are moving. The open one is mostly used to deliver ordinary and used automobiles, while the enclosed method is best for expensive and luxury cars.
Over 80% of people moving prefer open one because it is cheaper, faster and easily available. Its only challenge is that your vehicle is exposed. On the other hand, the enclosed option does not expose your vehicle to harsh weather conditions, road debris, and prying eyes.
A quote
It is a feature used by companies to calculate the fee. Mostly, it appears on the top of the website. A quote form should be easy to use, free, and non-obligatory. Beware that the amount indicated on the quote is not binding. It could increase and decrease at the latter stages of the process. Ensure the information you provide to the quote form is as accurate as possible to prevent a huge disparity between the quote and final expenditure.
The information required on the quote varies from one hauler to another. A1-AT requires you to provide the following on the quote form;
- Location and destination of your vehicle
- Year of manufacture, make, and model
- Contact information (name, email address, and phone number)
- Delivery option (door-to-door or terminal-to-terminal service)
Once you have provided all this information, you will receive a quote immediately and a call to confirm your order. Be careful with transporters that ask for your financial information on the quote.
Pickup And Drop-Off Options
When booking a slot, you must indicate how you want it to be picked up and delivered to your destination. Most movers offer door-to-door service and terminal-to-terminal services.
For the door-to-door service, the company will pick it up from your location of choice and haul it to your preferred destination. It is convenient, safe, and saves time. However, the door-to-door service will only work if the pickup and drop-off locations are accessible to the carrier truck ferrying it. Most customers deliver with the door-to-door service and the open option.
On the other hand, the terminal-to-terminal service requires customers to drop off and pick up from predetermined locations. Established haulers have terminuses across all major cities. If you choose this option, you must pick it up as soon as possible to avoid paying additional parking fees.
