Car movers
Can Transportation Bangalore your vehicle to your new home
safely and securely, without the risk of you having to drive it across country
yourself. I don't know about you, but the thought of having my car break down
on me on a dark stretch of road in the middle of nowhere with my entire family
in it, is not my idea of a good time. And it certainly is not the way I would
want to start my journey into a new home.
With a professional car mover your car, truck, RV, or SUV
will arrive at your front door with absolutely no wear and tear, and without
the worries of you trying to drive it yourself. All for a lot less than you
think. Some car movers can even transport your motorcycle or boat, and can make
special arrangements to ensure that your rare classic or high-end luxury
vehicle is well protected from all the elements throughout the entire trip. But
before you go out and hire a company to move your car there are a few things
you need to know and do to make the journey as smooth and worry free as
possible. After all you already have enough things on your plate to deal with.
So let's get started, shall we?
Research different car transport companies to get an idea of
what they offer in terms price and service. The internet is a great place to
start when it comes to getting price quotes, but be forewarned that if the
quote you get seems too good to be true, then it probably is. As is the case
with most things, you get what you pay for. Look for a company that provides a
high level of quality service rather than one that offers the lowest price.
However, it is a good idea to get several quotes before you decide on which
company to go with.
You should know that in most cases a car transport company
will not be able to ship your car straight through from one location to
another. Transport trailers can hold up to six to twelve cars at a time with
each car going to a different location, so your car may be carried through
other drop sites before arriving to you at your specific destination. Make sure
to inform the transport company if you want your car shipped straight through
to you, as they may have to arrange for a different type of trailer to move
you.
If your car is an expensive luxury type or a specialty car,
make sure to tell the company that as well. They will arrange for your car to
be transported in an enclosed trailer which provides additional security and
extra protection from the elements. Have patience and get a delivery date from
the transport company so that you have a time frame of when your vehicle will
be delivered.
The actual drop off rotation and the delivery route will be
decided by the driver so depending on where you are located, your delivery
could be sooner than expected or delayed a short time. There may be occasions
when door to door service is not guaranteed, usually it's because the size of
the transport trailer may not enable the driver to easily get in and out of
residential areas. If that is the case, expect the driver to contact you and
arrange for you to pick up your vehicle at a more accessible location, possibly
a depot or a parking lot close to your home.
Before you ship your car make sure that it is running
properly and has no overlooked mechanical problems. If your vehicle does not
run you may be charged additional fees if the driver has to manually push it on
or off the transport trailer. Always inform your transport company if there are
any problems with your vehicle when you first contact them. This way everyone
is on the same page, and you will avoid any unpleasant surprises when you
receive your invoice. The more upfront information you give about your vehicle
the more accurate your shipping quote will be. And, remember to provide them
with a reliable contact number while your vehicle is in transit so that the
driver can call you if necessary.
It's a good idea to have your vehicle washed before it is
picked up by the transporter, this will allow you and the driver to make note
of any preexisting scratches and dents. Make sure your car has no leaks before
it gets put on the trailer or it could drip fluids onto another person's
vehicle while in transit. The battery in your car should be charged and secure,
the fuel level in your tank should be as low as possible, and your car alarm
system should be disabled so that it does not drain your battery in the event
that it goes off unnoticed during transit.
If you are moving to a different climate either hot or cold,
it's a good idea to make sure that your vehicle has an adequate amount of
coolant or antifreeze in it so as to avoid any unwanted surprises when you try
to drive home from the delivery location, assuming that the driver was not able
to provide you with door to door service. And if your car has an antenna, make
sure that you remove or retract it so that it does not get torn off or
accidentally scratch another vehicle.
