How do I pay for Car transport?
A more popular question we are asked is "how does payment to an auto shipper work?". That use to be a little bit easier to answer when there was pretty much a standard way that auto transport companies took payment. Today however more payment options exist to pay for these vehicle shipping services, depending on if you are using a broker or carrier.
The oldest method was you paid a deposit upon signing the agreement & the bill of laden to the auto shipping broker or carrier. Than upon delivery of your vehicle you would pay the balance due to the driver usually in cash or cashiers check only was accepted.
While the above method still is used some other popular payment that are used today are not taking a deposit and payment in full only upon the car's delivery. Some car shippers even have a guarantee policy or money back. Yet another method due is the entire amount due upon finding a car carrier for your vehicle. The latter method is better if you plan on paying and would rather pay for the entire transport by credit card.
The bottom line is to use which method works for you and read the auto shippers refund policy carefully in case you would like to exit the contract. We cannot stress that enough!
