You've come to the correct site if you're seeking for services for transporting premium vehicles. We at Budget Auto Transporter recognize how significant your premium automobile is. When it is shipped, you want it to be in perfect shape. It must be received in the same state as when it was shipped. Of course, every customer wants the same thing, regardless of the type of car they are delivering.

A premium car, however, belongs to a different class entirely. They are pricey, gorgeous vehicles that require a little more upkeep than the average everyday driver. This is the rationale behind the existence of luxury automobile shipping services, which are typically regarded as a separate cargo class.

How do we interpret this? So, moving a luxury automobile requires distinct planning. You should probably use an enclosed transport vehicle. Instead of using straightforward ramps to load and unload the vehicle, such a truck may require a liftgate. Luxury automobile shipping has several additional considerations that don't apply to normal car shipments. Is it an expensive, luxurious sports car? If so, it could be more difficult to control than a regular automobile. Not all drivers are capable of operating such a powerful vehicle, thus the driver will need to know how to accomplish it.

Overall, shipping a luxury car is the same as a regular car, but also very different. That’s why we’re writing this today – to explain those differences and help you get the most out of your luxury car shipping services.

As we previously indicated, shipping a luxury car is largely similar to shipping a conventional car. However, there are a few noticeable variations that you should be aware of, both in terms of how they're handled and how they're transported.

To begin with, premium cars are pricey. Consequently, they require different maintenance than a typical daily driver. This often refers to an enclosed transport vehicle; we'll talk more about why they are significant in a moment. But for the time being, especially if it still has a high value, you should prepare to transfer your luxury automobile to an enclosed transport truck.

The majority of premium vehicles have values in the upper five or even six-figure range. Pricey ones can cost several hundred thousand dollars.

It's important to know what you're sending and what your car requires to be transported. It's crucial to speak with a professional to learn more since they can provide you with specialized guidance depending on your particular luxury car.

However, anticipate shipping it enclosed and anticipate paying more for it than a regular automobile on your trip. Enclosed transport is more expensive because it’s not a standard method of moving a vehicle. That said, it’s usually fairly easy to find an enclosed hauler, as they’re still somewhat common. But they do cost more.

The reason why they cost more is two-fold: one, they ship more expensive cars and need more insurance. The second reason, though, is they haul fewer cars than their open counterparts, often just 2-4. So they have to charge more to still make money on their route.

In the end, if you're seeking for luxury automobile shipping services, you require enclosed transportation. Compared to their open counterparts, enclosed trucks offer superior vehicle protection, and they are built to transport more expensive automobiles.

Any type of premium car should be transported in an enclosed transporter, as per our advice. Do they cost more money? They are, indeed. However, the price of shipping a premium car is negligible in comparison to probable repair costs.

Damage during transit is not common; in fact, it’s really rare. We strive to work with carriers that have no history of damaging vehicles, but accidents, unfortunately, do happen. That is why enclosed transportation exists. You can have a perfect record shipping cars, but one idiot running into a truck can have lasting repercussions for a carrier, even when they aren’t at fault.

You can’t prevent people from being dumb, and you can’t prepare for inclement weather in another part of the country, and you can’t prepare for every single contingency when your vehicle is out on the truck. So instead, you skirt all those potential issues by moving your vehicle in an enclosed truck.

Enclosed trucks are not only safer for costly automobiles but they are also built to transport them. Many sports cars and luxury automobiles are lowered, either for performance or for aesthetic reasons. If the cars are too low, they won't clear the ramps and may wind up being trapped on the truck entry, which might also pose problems with regular carriers.

These problems are avoided by a liftgate, which many enclosed carriers still have even if not all of them do. This is still another justification for becoming enclosed, and we can assist you with it as well.

Liftgates may be necessary to effectively load or unload some luxury vehicles from a transport truck. Not all premium automobiles will require one, and not all luxury cars will require one. Luxury and sports automobiles, however, are frequently the ones that require them more than others.

The vehicle's height above the ground is the cause. Ramps can be challenging to pass without scratching the underbody when you have poor ground clearance. Since they often don't do any harm to the car, these sorts of problems are sometimes invisible and frequently go unreported. However, it isn't always the case. And, with cars getting more complex, any damage can be problematic in the future.

As a result, if your vehicle is lowered, or has naturally low ground clearance, we need to know. This way, we can make sure we find the right type of carrier for your needs. If your vehicle does have lower ground clearance an enclosed truck will also likely be required. I can’t think of a single open transport truck that has a liftgate on it. They just…aren’t designed for that kind of trailer. Enclosed trucks, though, have them – not all, mind you, but a fair few.

Make every effort to let us know the state of your automobile so we can match you with the appropriate carrier. We don't want to send your vehicle out only for the carrier to arrive and discover that it can't be loaded because it is too low.

In the realm of auto transportation, the BOL, BoL, or Bill of Lading is a multifunctional document. It serves as a convenient one-stop shop for your shipping order, receipt, and inspection report. For these reasons, the Bill of Lading is crucial when transporting your car.

For starters, it is the carrier's shipment order from you. It will thus include the addresses as well as the names and contact details of the pickup and delivery contacts. It serves as your receipt since it will list the amount you owe the carrier when the package is delivered (or whenever the balance is due). When transporting a luxury automobile, it also serves as an inspection report, which is arguably the most crucial aspect.

Every vehicle that is shipped needs to undergo a pickup inspection and a delivery inspection. This is done for insurance purposes, as you’re looking for existing damage and then new damage.

As we mentioned earlier, damage is quite rare when you’re shipping a car, and even less rare when shipping via an enclosed carrier. But it nonetheless happens, and it’s important to be prepared for it if it does.

The pickup inspection will note any existing damages. For most luxury vehicles there won’t be any, but just in case. New damages will be inspected during delivery. The pickup person must approve the carrier's pickup inspection before it can be submitted. The delivery person must approve the carrier's delivery inspection before it can be submitted. We phrase it this way because whoever is in charge of pickup or delivery needs to be ready since occasionally you won't be able to be there.

Make sure you are familiar with the inspection report's contents. If there are any damages, this will be the main piece of documentation showing that they happened during transportation.
