What to Expect in a Car Transport Quote

A shipping quote gives you the estimated cost of shipping your car to another distant area. It asks you the point of origin and the point of destination. This will determine the distance between the two points. It is usually the distance that is the main basis in computing your total fees for the transfer.
An auto transport quote will also ask you what type of vehicle are you going to ship, if it is a SUV, a sedan or a truck. This will determine what kind of container you will need base on the size and weight of the vehicle. This feature also adds up to the total cost since the size of the container will determine the size of the area it will have to occupy in the vessel.
Next it will ask you for a specific date you want your vehicle to arrive. Usually, people who want to save leave this blank as they are willing to wait for the vessel to arrive depending on the route. But there are some who indicate specific dates for the arrival. This entails an additional charge since you are rushing the normal procedure. You will also find in a shipping quote the part for insurance coverage. Costs are dependent on the insurance fees set by the insurance companies.
