This is by far the most frequently asked question about
auto movers. Its also a little confusing. Legally
auto transport companies do not have the
proper operating authority to move household goods. They only are licensed and insured to move automobiles. If the
auto carrier gets pulled over they can receive fines for this.
Now, some let a weight limit in the trunk or inside the car slide (100 lbs). You cannot have stuff stacked to the ceiling of the vehicle. You can also not use any car covers or have anything hanging off the vehicle like car bras. Its important to note that any possessions left in the auto are not covered by the
auto transporters insurance. When
moving other items its best to hire a
moving company. If you book your car with a
mover in many cases they usually outsource it to an
auto transport company.
I am NOT surprised by
auto transport and
moving companies tactics to get visitors and business to their sites. After all we are in business. And "part of the equation" (a large part of why we do it is to make money). But some forget the other part to that equation is to hep and serve the people. If you do that than the money will follow as a side effect.
So what surprises me are the ficticious auto transport reviews, or the fake certifications or even the
BBB stuff
moving companies and
auto shippers make up. But its done in all industries all across the web. So one way we can protect ourselves and help make the right decision on auto transport services or choosing a
moving company (or any other services) is to do our own research and dig a little deeper than the surface. Remember what your mother told you? Don't believe everything you read or hear! Do your own home work before choosing car shipping companies and moving services!
Its March and the first day of spring is almost upon us. Besides flowers, tress blooming, and warm weather other changes are here. Spring and summer are the time when most people make their moves. No more thinking about it. For some it may be that the kids have the summer off from
schools. Many associate spring and summer as a time for change, a new slate.
Whether your moving a small apartment or a large house, now is the time to get going and
plan your move.
Moving companies are going to be busy and if you want to avoid hassles, not be hurried and keep costs down, than now is the time to plan your move.
When you think students, you dont normally think of
car shipping. BUT, many students attend schools far from home.When universities and colleges break for the summer many students return home. Since many have
part time jobs they need their cars. To get a more affordable rates ask your
auto shipper about two way transport, if the student and car will be returnig to that school in the fall. Also be sure to give yourself plenty of time in advance to get your car home. That is a busy time for
auto transporters. Many sites offer free
auto shipping quotes which you can compare quotes and book it with the company that best suits your needs.
