Preparing Your Car for transporting.

Before vehicle transport carriers are permitted to go anywhere with your vehicle, they are required by the DOT to do a daily "Pre-Trip Inspection" of the equipment. We strongly suggest that you also do a Inspection of your car. In preparing for any transport, it is important to check items such as tire pressure, oil & water levels, other fluid levels, etc. This inspection could help in avoiding problems down the road, not to mention that it is a good idea to be familiar with your car. Loose moldings and the like have a tendency to fly off in shipping, thus causing possible damage to your vehicle or to others on the same load. Leaking fluids can also be a detriment to the welfare of your car and/or the car below it. Please have any and all repairs done before transport. Vehicles that become inoperable in transport are subject to an inoperable charge up to $100.00. It is also adviced that you have no more than 1/4 tank of gas in your vehicle at time of transport for weight reasons.
