When choosing your auto transport company be sure they have the proper cargo insurance. Just because the carrier is a licensed, bonded auto shipper does not mean they have the proper insurance. Each carrier can have anywhere from twenty thousand dollars to a million dollars in cargo insurance. So, especially when transporting a classic or luxury automobile be sure the car carrier is insured to the proper amount. You can have the auto shipping company fax or email you their insurance certificate. The carrier will have their own on the truck and a broker should carry a umbrella policy.
At the end of the day, only properly licensed, bonded and reliable car shipment companies carry the proper insurance required to reimburse damage claims that happen on their watch. Keep out an eagle eye, however, as it may be buried in the fine print who is responsible for that dented fender which happened while being loaded onto the shipping truck. Don’t be afraid to take your time to read and ask questions. Do your due diligence.Having an A+ rating with the BBB should be on the top of your list for your car carrier.
