How to prepare for California to Houston Auto Transport Service?

When Shipping a car from California to Houston  (one state to another), you have to be careful while shipping your car that is costly to buy. For a safe car shipping process following are some important points that should be followed before shipping the car : 

Washing:

Start by washing your car's exterior and cleaning the car's interior. By washing, any dust-hidden dents and damages will be uncovered, and take out the personal belongings from the car as they can damage your car while shipping and could be prone to theft. This will help you find any abnormalities in the car and help you clean the car.

Maintaining:

Take your car to a garage and check the fluid level, tire pressure, brakes and battery level of the car and ensure that all the things are up to mark fill the gas tank only to quarter as it will reduce the car's weight. If you have any exterior equipment, please cover them or take them out. Lastly, cover or remove all the tags, as the trailer will go through many toll points you could get unnecessarily charged.

Inspection and Documentation:

Please take a quick look at the car after washing and maintaining it. Take pictures of your car from all angles (this will help you in the future), note every dent, damage, and scratch, and provide a copy to pour executives. And if there is any major damage, please inform us in advance.

Paperwork:

Please collect all the paperwork related to the vehicle, like registration, driver's license, etc. If you need clarification about which paper to collect, please contact our executive and collect the necessary papers before shipping, as these papers will help us identify your car and you.

Insurance:

Some people skip; this is essential for car shipping as we never know what we will face while shipping. Insurance coverage helps to secure your car while shipping. Rapid Auto Shipping provides standard insurance coverage with every shipment, and we are open to revising our plan according to your car value at minimum cost, so please let us know if there are any changes you might want.
