How do I track my vehicle while it is being moved?
Most brokers claim they provide GPS tracking. The reality is that brokers by definition do NOT own trucks, we find carriers that transport vehicles for our customers. In reality, few carriers actually have GPS. However, Christa's Excellent Auto LLC accomodates for this by keeping with the customer through the entire transport 7 days a week, I give a copy of the legally binding contract between myself (Broker) and the truck company (Carrier) that gives you theCarrier's and driver's name and phone number as well.
When choosing a moving company, prior booking, asking the quesiton "how you can track your vehicle is very important".
Most drivers don't have live GPS tracking that they are willing to give out, primarily due to the safety of the driver and the load he is transporting.
The easiest way to check the location of the vehicle is by reaching out to the shipping agent and asking the status on the shipment.
Often you will be provided with the drivers direct phone number and name, that way he is a phone call or a text message away. If the driver is not responding or busy at the moment, the carrier dispatch department is always working during regular business hours.
We recommend that the client calls or sends an e-mail to the shipping agent

Where is my Vehicle?
Tracking a vehicle while in transit on a truck is mostly done by contacting the trucking company direct or the driver. And that is by phone or email. If a broker tells you do track your vehicle, it means you need to make calls to find our where it is. These are some of the reasons why tracking a vehicle is not as easy as a tracking service such as provided by UPS or Fedex:
There may be a few companies that may offer some type of electronic tracking but those are the exception. And they may be quite expensive compared to most other reputable auto transport brokers. It is important to know that your broker is dependable, relaible and have up to date information on your shipment. By giving them a direct call will be just as good as tracking your vehcile online.
The best way to find out which brokers are worthwhile considering shipping your vehcile should be vetted and researched. Consult the BBB or google for customer ratings and reviews. Do not just take the cheapest quote. It may cost you a great deal of money and frustration.
With most of the companies (broker or carrier) tracking is not an available option.
Tracking is not available in most of the cases due to some technical and safety issues.
For our customers it is not a problem.
Most importantly, we offer the best dispatchers and customer care assistants who can provide location update whenever the customer prefers.
You can call the shipping company anytime and they will be able to provide you an update on where the driver is at the moment.
When chooing a company , please be attentive on what hours they operate. The longer working hours are the easier would communication be especially about updates.
Kindest Regards

Yes, you can track it by calling the driver directly. He takes all of his own calls, so we will provide you with the drivers phone number when a driver is assigned to your order.
Not every truck & trailer has a tracking device. It is more thorough to speak to each carrier to not just determine their current location, but if they foresee any issues that may effect their timeline, such as weather, trafiic, and/or other clients postponing them. We speak with our drivers and their dispatchers daily.

Once your driver is confirmed, usually, 24 to 72 hours after setting up the reservation, we will get in contact with you to give you accurate pickup time, and estimated time for delivery. Every order receives several different options, this way, if the first option is not convenient for you, most likely, the next one will.
Estimated time-frames are always bound to the traffic and weather factors, and while we can be accurate in this regard, we can’t be 100% precise. If you are around a heavy traffic area keep in mind that dispatched carriers are most of the time eighteen-wheelers double-deckers, and just a flat tire could severely delay the whole operation.
