He was being transferred to California and they would have a wide range of things to do and see all year long. However, they didn&#8217;t want to drive their new SUV nearly three thousand miles, so they decided to hire a car transporter service. Here are some of the mistakes the couple made and ways to avoid them, so you can learn from them and enjoy a smooth and trouble-free shipping experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unexpected Costs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When Jim got a price quote, he was so pleased at the very low price, that he turned his mind to other things. However, Jim&#8217;s soon discovered the quote was for open shipping and he wanted his vehicle protected, so his search continued. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Required Papers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jim didn&#8217;t check with his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autotransportquotes.com\/car-transport\">car transporter<\/a> service about required paperwork. He thought it was only needed for overseas shipping. However, this is not the case, as you must present a legal title to the vehicle before shipping. Jim couldn&#8217;t find his title (because it was already packed) and he had to pay $75 for a duplicate title and spend several hours at the DMV.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There&#8217;s a Reason for Bargain Basement Prices<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When the shipping company arrived to pick up the SUV, Jim realized why the price quote was so low. The driver showed up in an old flat bed truck with a tarp inside. Realizing he had made a bad decision, he decided to cancel and pay the cancellation fee. It took several more days to find a professional car transporter service.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Drop Off Points Matter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To save money, Jim chose a drop off delivery point, instead of door to door services. He had to drive 35 miles (one way) to get his car. These problems can be avoided when you choose a professional service like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autotransportquotes.com\/\">Auto Transport Quotes<\/a>.
