DOCTOR`S ORDERS
We like to think our customers cars as if they were our own;
therefore we not only treat them as such, but think of them as people.
It might be silly but we encourage our customers to also see their vehicles
as such. We recommend having your car fully inspected by a certifield
mechanic and do and overall chek of engine,tires,fluids and brakes.
We understand some of our customers can do it themselves,however it is the same
as self prescribing when you feel sick. It is better to get a professional
opinion before having to take care a bigger problem later. Later on when car is delivered
and car presents a leak and tire wear,you will be able to identifi immediately as you
know in what state car was in before shipping. Also if all of sudden
car starts leaking along the way, for security reasons drivers are obliges to unload car and
storage and other transportion services will be covered by customer. If for some reason
this leakage wrecked another car`s paint,you will also be responsible for this car.
Make it a kodak moment
As well as having a certified mechanic reviews the car, it`s important
you review the car as well for scratches, dents, and any other type of marks.
Take pictures of the inside and outside of car in detail.
This will help compare once car is delivered and check for new lines, scratches and dents.
You may find is tedious and pointless now, but once scratches occu, these pictures will be
your proof for insurance purposes.
Ensure the insurance
Don`t assume that because it is a car transporter taking your car from one
point to another, insurance is part of the package as well. Make sure the carrier
you are using provides full insurance for your car in case of any loss or damage
along the way. Request a copy of insurance for your records and not only when
charging your card but when they scratch your car as well.
Extra baggage, extra fees
Check with your carrier what other regulations they have in order
to transport a car. Some companies require that the gas tank be only half tank full or even one
quarter full to eliminate extra weight on carrier. Also ask if you`re allowed to take personal
belongings in car as each carrier has different policies. In the case they do, ask how much,
what type of items and if theseare covered by the insurance.
Finally safely secure or remove equipment aside from the car`s original state.
Custom made modifications, ornaments,antennas or fog lights usually need to be removed from
vechicle. Check with your carrier what are their policies regarding these items.
Mark off each items as you go to ease up the preparation process. It will
only take you a small amount time to revise your car deeply and follow
this check list compared to the amount of time you will lose in case any
mishap happens along the way and your car is affected. These simple
steps will help you avoid iconveniences, save a lot of time and most
importantly help you save a lot of money.
