In the car shipping industry, there are a couple types of
vehicle transport companies: auto brokers and car carriers. Auto carriers are the asset based companies
(the trucks themselves), and if you choose to deal directly with a carrier you
have to be extremely careful about what price they initially offer and the
timeline in which you are given.
Carriers tend to raise the price on specific routes and often take
longer than needed to complete the vehicle shipment. They are also limited to certain routes and
times needed to make prompt deliveries.
If there are only a few trucks within their fleet, the auto carrier
cannot be in many places at a time. So,
in short, it may be weeks before they can accommodate you automobile
transport. Another typical issue with
dealing directly with a carrier is the communication barrier because drivers aren’t
the most prompt with answering or returning phone calls while driving.
Car shipping brokerages are great for customer service. They keep the prices where they need to be so
that customers are getting the best bang for their buck. They have access to a multitude of carriers
that they have special relationships with, the nation over. The car shipping broker will also handle all
of the paperwork and money for you, so that you only have to deal with your
specific agent and not several different people. The broker then pays the carrier contracted
to deliver the vehicle and then all is well because the broker is then in
control of the driver. Car shipping
brokers do extensive research on each and every carrier used to make informed
decisions on which carrier to use. They
match up insurance cargo policies to ensure the customer that the vehicle will
be fully covered for its entire value.
The broker is the happy medium between the customer and the drivers so
there are no hiccups along the way and all headaches are relieved.
Also, car shipping brokerages will give you the much needed
information for your specific needs.
