Shipping Your Vehicle and 1000 Splendid Quotes
A very wise Englishman, Benjamin Disraeli, once said something like "the wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages are perpetuated by good quotes." This is ever so true with the search for an auto shipper. You can research companies on the net, give them a call, hire the services of a broker to help select the most competent and reasonable company, but what it all really means is which one has the price quote that best fits your needs.
Shipping companies aren't dumb. They know you are doing this and will offer TERRIFIC QUOTES as undoubtedly listed on their website. Watch out for this as a good company will prefer you to ask for a quote so they can knock you off your socks with their generosity and you will pick them as your shipper.
A bit off the subject, but if you are required to make an advance payment, it is an iron-clad prerequisite that you obtain a contract that ensures a complete money-back guarantee if the services are not up to the specifications agreed upon between you and the shipper. Some companies will actually take the advance money, hem and haw around, never fulfill the contract expectations, your wonderful car will never reach its destination, you lost your advance money, and you are up the proverbial creek without a paddle (or a car).
Yes, it is better not to lie in your Resume, but in many cases you can use rhetoric to formulate your experience so that you sound as an ideal presidency candidate even if you are just a parking lot attendant. But when requesting a quote it is better to submit accurate, detailed, and even the most intimate technical information about your one and only.
You must provide a thoroughly accurate description of your auto's weight and shape. Not every carrier can handle every type of vehicle. If yours is an SUV, off-road vehicle, some kind of small truck, or a heavy van or station wagon you may have to opt for a special carrier. If there are any exotic features or customized alterations to your vehicle that may keep it from driving up a truck ramp effectively if at all, this will require special consideration. Most carriers, for a supplemental charge, will ship non-operating vehicles. You must, however, inform them of this before the loading day arrives as it may require a truck with specialized equipment to deal with a car that can't be just driven onto it.
The way the company presents the quote, whatever it may be, is very important for you to get some insight into the quality of the shipper. Was the quote presented to you in a professional, courteous, and helpful manner? Does the quote given the services they provide seem too good to be true? It probably is. Compare quotes of all companies offering similar services. Start with the most well known companies in the industry to begin getting quotes and estimating quality and prices even if you do not choose them for your business. At least you will know what the prominent companies offer and at what price so you can compare this more easily with the lesser known companies.
By doing all this legwork, you will be much more able to discern the honest operators from the fly-by-nights. And don't fail to negotiate a price whether with a big company or small. Any honest company will not be put off by this and may actually have not quoted you their rock bottom price at first. So let them know you are shopping around and they may meet the lowest price you found elsewhere in order to get your business. If not, you still haven't lost a thing. You can go with the lowest bidder or not. It is always a good idea to go with the company with which you are the most comfortable. - 21396
