1. The Car Shipping Process

Here you can see on the car shipping carrier there is another vehicle directory above the lower car (gray vehicle). Most times cars are just placed on to the car shipping truck based on when and were they are picked up. Although not always an option, some car shipping companies do offer leaving your vehicle on the top half of the auto transport carrier while your automobile is being transported for an additional cost.

You can think of it as flying business class instead of coach, but really there are some good benefits that may be important to you when your vehicle is riding top half on the car shipping carrier’s truck.

Benefits of top car shipping carrier section:
1) Leaky Car Fluids. If your car is being transported on the bottom half of the car transporters truck and you have a vehicle with leaky fluids riding above your automobile, it may be likely that the vehicle might be dripping oil, anti freeze, battery acid or even coolant. This does not always happen as for most people do tend to their vehicles before car shipping service. If you are not sure what leaky fluids of a vehicle looks like simply take a look at any parking spots next time your at the local mall and you will see dark stains on the pavement. Note: If you have a exotic or luxury automobile you may be interested in our Enclosed Auto Transport service.

2) Road Debris. When an a large auto transport carrier goes driving at 80 miles an hour down the highway you better believe road debris gets kicked up, not to mention from other cars driving around it. By having your vehicle ride up top of the car shipping truck it is less likely that road debris will touch it.

3) Vandalism/ Theft. Its rarely happens with car delivery but some times it does. Vehicles riding on the bottom section of a car transport carrier have a higher risk of being vandalized or broken into. Simply because they are easier to reach then automobiles riding on the top section of the auto transporters carrier. This is why it is important to remove all valuables from your vehicle before auto transport service. Note: if you are shipping a very expensive vehicle enclosed car transport service may be a better option for your automobile.

The above are just 3 reasons why paying a slightly higher price for car shipping service for your vehicle to ride on the top section of the auto transport carrier. If you are not sure whether or not to pay this extra fee you can always ask the car shipping company if they know what vehicles will be delivered on the carrier with yours.
