Non-running car transport in the USA
A non-running vehicle can require a different loading plan from a roadworthy car. Describe the problem clearly so the carrier can assess the equipment and price for your particular move.
Explain what the vehicle can do
Describe whether it rolls freely, steers, brakes and can be placed in neutral. Mention locked wheels, missing wheels, fluid leaks, accident damage and modifications. Select non-running in the vehicle details and give the model and quantity. Do not assume every transporter has a winch or forklift access.
Plan loading at both ends
Check surface conditions, available space and access for a transporter. Ask how the vehicle will be loaded and unloaded, what assistance is required and who supplies it. City and ZIP search helps locate the area; final access and street addresses must be confirmed with the carrier.
Agree equipment and charges first
Request a quote that identifies the vehicle condition, equipment, pickup window and delivery arrangements. Confirm additional loading charges before accepting. Photograph the vehicle and agree how its condition is recorded at pickup and delivery. The carrier must assess whether it can safely handle the vehicle.
Before choosing a US transport company, consult the FMCSA automobile transporter advisory and operating authority lookup guidance. Confirm the carrier and the terms for your shipment directly.
