The dealership first finds a trusted car shipping company. They want a company that is on time, careful, and has good reviews.
Next, the dealership asks how much it will cost. They compare prices and pick the best deal. Then they book the transport.
Before the car goes on the truck, the dealership checks the car. They clean it and take photos. This helps in case there’s damage during shipping.
The car is fully checked, and any scratches or dents are noted. The report is shared with the transport driver.
The dealership takes out anything that doesn’t belong in the car. This includes paperwork, tools, or personal items.
They leave only a little fuel in the tank—usually about 1/4 full. This makes the car lighter and safer to move.
Once ready, the dealership locks the car and gives one set of keys to the transport driver. The car is ready to go.
During transport, the dealership tracks where the car is. Many transport companies offer GPS tracking or give updates.
When the car arrives, the dealership inspects it again. They check for new damage and make sure everything looks good.
Finally, they sign paperwork to confirm the car arrived safely. If everything is okay, the job is done!
