Below you will find the steps to follow when preparing your vehicle for transport:

1.         Keys

You must provide the selected carrier with keys to the ignition, trunk, gas cap and any locked compartment. Please have copies of your keys made and leave only the copies (keep your original set of keys) after you have checked to ensure that the copies fit all devices/compartments.

2.         Don’t Fill Your Tank

Due to DOT weight regulations, we recommend that your gas tank be less than a quarter of a tank

3.         Packing Your Vehicle

Don’t over pack your Vehicle.  Only luggage or small boxes may be shipped inside the trunk only with a maximum weight of 100lbs.

An infant car seat and spare tire with jack are considered to be integral parts of the vehicle, so they may be included. You will/may be asked for additional compensation if your vehicle is over-packed or requires removal of anything that is not permanently mounted or bolted to the vehicle.

4.         Do Not Obstruct the Views from the Windows

This is mandatory and is for the safety of our crew. Our crew often has to load these vehicles on to our trailer with the mirrors folded in, using only the windows. If their view is obstructed the potential for damage and injury is greatly increased.

5.         Do Not Pack Firearms or Fire Extinguishers

No firearms, ammunition of any type or fire extinguishers may be shipped in a vehicle.

6.         Alarm Systems

If there is an alarm system, it must be disconnected prior to drop off or the alarm remote must be provided.

7.         Disabled / Inoperable Vehicles

If your vehicle is inoperable it must be in a safe location with easy access with inflated tires, fully operational brakes and steering.

8.         Over-sized / Modified Vehicles

Unless otherwise previously noted to our dispatch department, Vehicles that are Factory Stock cannot exceed certain height or clearance. All vehicles must have at least 6” of ground clearance OR maximum 7' high, otherwise we may be unable to accept your vehicle for a regular auto trailer which may increase your estimated rate.

9.         Vehicle should be clean

To ensure an accurate vehicle inspection report can be completed, please clean your vehicle. This will assist you and the driver to speed up the walk around the vehicle at pick up and destination.

Make sure the car has a clean exterior so the trucker can make a proper inspection of any existing scratches or dings. Empty it of personal belongings. Remove all loose parts attached to the body, any non-permanent luggage, bike or ski racks.

Shipping your vehicle for the first time could be quite frustrating.

In order to make the process smoother, we have included a few things you should keep in mind while preparing your shipment.

• Make sure that your vehicle's condition is just as it was described to the shipping agent.
• If you are loading items in your vehicle, it must be under 100 lbs, stored in the trunk area only.
• It is always best to inspect your vehicle on your own, detailing all the dents or scratches the vehicle might have
• Inspect your neighborhood, making sure that a large semi-truck could fit in.
• Keep good communication with the shipping company prior pick up.
• Meet the driver at the pick up location once you have confirmed with him

1) Remove antennas, loose parts like fog lights.

2) Make sure the car is operable and clean

3) If you have some stuff, better put it in the trunk and it has to be not more than 100 lbs.

4) Remove all tags and plates.

5) Better leave around ¼ tank of fuel. Not more as it is putting extra weight on the car.

Make sure it doesn't have any loose parts hanging from it.

Keep the gas level below 1/2 tank

Winterize it if you are shipping from warm climate to cold climate.

How to Prepare Your Car for Transport

Though your car will be driven minimally during the transport process, it should be in good driving condition. Inoperable vehicles can be shipped, but the transporter must know in advance so that they can make the proper preparations. For operable vehicles, mechanical issues can cause unforeseen delays and damages. Therefore, you should perform a maintenance check before shipping your car. Check out uShip’s list of preparations below:

• Make sure the battery has a full charge and that the tires are properly inflated.
• Top off all fluids in the car
• Run down your gas tank to a quarter or eighth full. An almost-empty tank will save weight and help keep your shipment moving along quickly.
• Keep an eye on the vehicle for a few weeks prior to shipment. If there are any leaks or mechanical problems make sure the driver knows. Vehicles with leaks should never be placed on the top rack of a multi-car carrier.
• Document mechanical problems and write down any special steps needed to drive your car on and off the trailer (including problems starting or stopping your car). Give these instructions to your driver.

It is best to make some simple preparations before your car is placed on to the trailer.  Below are some tips to help make your transport go smoothly.

• Wash Your Vehicle: Your carrier-driver will need to inspect your vehicle and take pictures if necessary. This is for your benefit as well as the carrier.
• Lower Your Antennas: Antennas should be removed from the vehicle or lowered if possible. Temporary antennas need to be removed entirely.
• Provide Keys: U.S. Department of Transportation requires that one set of all keys for the vehicle be provided to the carrier, including the ignition, trunk, and glove box keys.
• Disable Your Alarms: Alarms should be turned off for transport. If there are special instructions required to start a car in order to disarm the alarm, please inform your Nations representative so they can note it on your dispatch sheet, which will be given to the carrier-driver.  The carrier is not responsible for drained batteries resulting from an alarm that has not been turned off.
• Removed Detachable Racks: Remove any luggage, bike, or ski rack that is not permanently attached to the car.
• Check for Leaks: The vehicle cannot have any obvious fluid leaks.
• Secure Your Battery: The vehicle battery must be secure in the mounting bracket.
• Remove Covers, Spoilers, Fairings, Air Dams or other low handing items: All exterior spare tire covers, grill covers, or car covers and hanging items must be removed from the vehicle. Your vehicle will be loaded on a truck that will bounce up and down…low riding items could incur damages if not prepared properly.
• Pre-existing Damages:  Carriers will not be responsible for damage caused by any pre-existing condition or for parts that may come loose in the moving process. Carrier is not responsible for preventable damage caused by Acts of Nature. Examine your vehicle carefully before signing the Bill of Lading. Any damage not noted could end up costing you money if not reported at the time of pick up or delivery.
• Remove Personal Items: Do NOT leave or transport anything valuable in your vehicle. We are not responsible for anything loose inside your car, including cell phones, radar detectors, garage door openers, E-Z Pass, removable radios, household goods, sunglasses, etc. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) prohibits the carrying of personal items on a truck licensed only for carrying automobiles. Stored personal items can also increase the overall weight of your vehicle, and could cause damage during transport. Any items left in the vehicle are subject to removal upon inspection at state line check points by the DOT.
• Gas: The gas tank must have a minimum of 1/8 tank of fuel, but no more than 1/2 tank of fuel. The carrier may have to move your vehicle more than once to accommodate other cars that are being transported.

 The vehicle must be clean on the outside for the carrier to carry out a proper inspection. Any low hanging spoilers, and accessories, loose parts must be removed and/or safely secured to the vehicle. You (Customer) must remove all external not permanent mounted racks and other elements prior to shipment. Vehicles must be presented to the Carrier in good running condition (unless non-running/non-operable noted in the order) with no more than half a tank of fuel. Part of the vehicle that falls off (separates) while the vehicle is in transit is the Customer’s responsibility this including damages caused by the part to any vehicles(s) and/or person.

Remove any hazardous items, weapons and anything illegal from your vehicle prior to pickup. Vehicles are inspected by the Department of Transportation. Leave 1/4 tank of fuel in the car only and remove any valuable items. We are not liable for personal items only the vehicle during transport. Anything you place in the vehicle is all at your own risk. Let us know of any customizations that have been made to your vehicle and the running condition so that we can properly estimate the cost and be prepared with the right type of auto transport truck. 

We provide you with a comprehensive vehicle move checklist on our website. There is also a complete checklist for moving your boat. Visit www.autorelo.com to view these checklists. 

Make sure your car has been completely clean, both inside and outside. This is particularlly important because this will help the driver conduct their inspection in order to assess any pre-existing damage on your vehicle. You will also want to make there are no additional personal items in the vehicle unless you intend to ship those with the vehicle (remember those items must total less than 100 pounds combined and kept below the window-line of the vehicle). Be sure to inform the driver of any special circumstances concerning the vehicle. Remember to disable any alarms so they don't go off during transit. Finally, make sure there is a quarter tank of gas in the car at the time it is picked up for shipment.

have the keys ready, 1/4 of gaz, vehicle ready to go 

The cleaner the exterior of your car is, the easier it is to notice any preexisting scratches or dents at pickup. If there are any attachments on your vehicle, such as luggage or bike racks, remove them before pickup. It's also a good idea to cover your driver's side floor mat and seat to prevent any dirt from being transferred to your car in the event that the driver needs to move the car during pickup or delivery, which is likely. You should also remove or disable any security devices or automatic toll devices, and they can cause issues during transport.

Any adjustments which must be made to the load order would be done by the driver.

* Remove Any/All Toll Passes.

While on the highway, the car carrier will pass under many bridges and tolls. If you have a toll pass attached to your vehicles, expect the tolls to be charged to. The driver can not be held responsible for these charges as this is your responsibility. Remove all toll readers to avoid any issues.

* Remove/Adjust Any Special Modifications.

6. Check Fuel Level: Maintain a fuel level of around 1/4 to 1/2 tank. This is sufficient for loading and unloading but keeps the weight of the vehicle lower.

7. Disable Alarm Systems: If your vehicle has an alarm system, deactivate it or provide instructions to the transport company on how to disable it temporarily.

8. Provide Spare Keys: Have an extra set of keys available for the transport company in case the original set is misplaced or needed.

9. Inform the Transport Company: Provide accurate and detailed information to the auto transport company regarding the make, model, and any specific instructions or considerations for your vehicle.
