You cannot just handover your car to them because there are several accessories that should be removed from your car before moving. Curious to know about other preparation that you should do before transporting your car? Here they are.
- Before your car movers take your car, they got to do full inspection of your vehicle. Make sure to schedule it in such a way that you will be able to meet them in person. They do the inspection and prepare a report about your car. This is vital and you must attend the inspection.
- Even if the car transporting company will do a thorough check, you also ensure that there is no personal belonging inside your car.
- Take out extra accessories like music system, DVDs, CDs etc from your car.
- Make sure there is no inflammable or that kind of materials inside your car.
- Check that there is no leakage of any kind in your car.
- Ensure to buy adequate amount of insurance before moving.
- Talk with the car carrier and finalize the mode of transportation as well as path/route of transportation.
- Make sure that your car is actually being transported in specially built car carrier trucks for extra safety.
- All types of clearances and documentation must be done before transporting.

Apart from the above tips and advises, keep in mind that cars are not meant to be transported in normal trucks that is used for transporting goods. There are special car carrier vans that are covered and give extra safety to your car during the transportation. Talk to your car movers and ensure they are using the same.
