3 Common Vehicle Shipping Myths Debunked

Auto transportation services come in handy for those who are moving or selling their vehicle to someone in another province. Packing up and starting up a new life doesn’t mean you have to leave your beloved vehicle behind. Auto transport companies are hired by individuals who need their cars moved from one place to another and are unable to drive themselves. In Canada, this is usually the shipment of a vehicle from one part of the country to another. Auto transportation makes moving simple, taking away the need for car owners to drive long trips or sell their cars unnecessarily. Vehicle shipment is offered by different companies all over the country, and getting all of the correct information about the process before you commit can be a burden. Here are a few common myths, debunked, to consider so you can make an informed decision.

Vehicle shipping is more expensive than driving your car

Moving across the country is exciting, but as you prepare, to-do checklists become longer and expenses start to add up. Shipping your car is one way you can save time and money during your move. Even with rising gas prices in Canada, many people still believe that it’s cheaper to drive your car across the country than have it shipped. In reality, hiring an auto transport company to ship your vehicle can save you money. Driving a vehicle across the country means spending money on gas, food, lodging, and car washes. Not to mention, if you are making a journey that takes a few days you will have to take time off work.

Vehicle shipping is not safe

It’s only natural to be concerned for the safety of a vehicle when it’s not under your care, especially while it’s being moved from one destination to another. Many people avoid vehicle shipping services out of fear that their car will be damaged or stolen during transport. Car shipping is very safe and effective as long as you rely on a legitimate and professional auto transport company. The equipment companies use to transport vehicles is built to protect them and you can also purchase insurance to cover any damages. There is always a possibility for car theft no matter where your vehicle is, however, properly preparing your vehicle for shipment makes this more avoidable.

Preparing for vehicle shipping is a lot of work

So you’ve found an auto transport company to hire and you’re ready to ship your vehicle- now what? It’s easy to write something off if it seems like too much of a hassle to fit into our busy everyday lives. Preparing a vehicle for transport is probably one of the easiest parts of a moving journey. It’s encouraged for vehicle owners to clear their cars of any valuables and remove any loose items such as bike racks, GPS systems, etc. Once you have cleared out your vehicle, your trusted auto transport company will take care of the rest. All you need to do is sit back, relax, and wait for your car to arrive!
