Preparing to Transport Your Vehicle, long distance moves

You are moving across the country and are bringing your treasured Dodge Magnum SRT with you. You also did your research, and found out that the car you babied for the last two years, and kept in excellent condition, won’t fit on a standard U-Haul trailer. You know you want to keep the car in classic condition and therefore you can’t drive it to your destination (unwanted miles, road debris). You have a budget to hire a professional auto transporter and you’ve begun a web search to hire the most reliable, professional and trustworthy company.

Before making contact with companies, you should know as much as possible about your car and what you expect of the transporting experience. First, know the dimensions of your car long with the make, model and year. This will allow the transport company to assess if they have right equipment to move your vehicle. You should know, before your call, if you want your car transported in an open versus enclosed trailer. If the price tag is becoming overwhelming, maybe talk with the family again about whether or not to keep the investment for the long haul.

You have talked with the family and your significant other has supported your decision to keep this car as a classic so you have made your first hard decision. Begin your web search and review several transportation companies. Take into consideration companies that give you the choice of an enclosed car trailer or specialized hauler such as a company specializing in Hotshot trucking.
