A few auto transport tips

Car shipping and vehicle transport companies can never guarantee a specific pick-up or delivery date or time. Unforeseen problems like traffic or breakdowns can cause potential delays. Patience and preparation are essential and will help both you and your car mover to have a positive experience. Nevertheless, King of the Road is well known for accommodating very specific shipping dates and deadlines, as well as complicated schedules and logistically challenging moves. Just talk to one of our car shipping experts and we will put our company to work hard and meet your car shipping needs.

Don't forget to clarify payment terms. Most auto transport companies will require you to place a deposit, around $150-$250, before shipping. We DO NOT agree with these practices as we do not believe in getting paid unless we provide you with excellent service. Sadly, there are many car shipping companies out there looking for a quick buck, oftentimes using "bait-and-switch" offers where their price is super low and they promise whatever you want promised. As usual, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

BEWARE OF LOW QUOTES. If you chose to pay anything in advance, do so with a credit card in case charges need to be disputed later and thoroughly read their car shipping agreement before you pay anybody anything. Once again, KING OF THE ROAD STRONGLY SUGGESTS NEVER TO PAY ANYTHING IN ADVANCE, as we believe the only honest way for a broker to earn their money is by actually rendering great car shipping services. If you have any last minute questions about car shipping, ask your driver. Confirm the terms of your contract and make sure your driver has your correct contact information. Before you car is loaded on the trailer, note the odometer reading; though your car may be driven a little in order to load or store your vehicle, there should be no major mileage discrepancies when the car is delivered.
