Transporting overseas

Transportation is not just limited to ground trucking for hauling long distances. When thinking about moving or transferring overseas it is important to understand how the process works and what you can do to help. Once you have found a company to transfer your personal belongings, the next step is to start the process of moving your car.

First, locate an auto transport company to manage the process of shipping your vehicle. Make sure the car is clean and does not have a full tank of gas. The gas tank should have about a quarter of gas in it before loading onto the ocean carrier. Once your order is booked and ready for transport make sure you have a booking number from the port from which the car will be headed to.

Second, allow the auto carrier to communicate with the port and to make sure all paper work is summated in time before the car arrives to the port. Once, the vehicle is on its way to the port make sure to collect a B.O.L. from the auto carrier and the ocean carrier. The B.O.L is a check sheet that protects you from damages that may have occurred during transit.

Following these step as well as other that you can find from a auto transport broker will ensure the safe transport of your vehicle.
