Auto Transport International Style
The gorgeous views, cultures, food, music and people that international travel brings can open up your senses and your soul like no other experience. It can unlock mysteries that lie within you. Whether travel by foot or some type of vehicle, the experience is awesome. If there is a specific vehicle that you wish to travel with, then you must do some travel planning for it, too, from departure to arrival.
Vehicle Shipment
It's important to find an international auto shipping company that can assist and support you in this endeavor; for it's not easy to do on your own.
The majority of time it takes approximately 20 to 30 days for shipping your vehicle. On some specific routes the company may go for 7 to-- days to complete the trip but you are always safer to allow more time. After all they are shipping a vehicle overseas. International shipping companies will allow you to plan up to two months before departure, but don't forget to contact the shipper about two weeks in advance of the shipment. For a price, if you must, shorter times can be arranged on an individual basis giving you priority. As for vehicle pick up at your destination, you are normally to do so within two or three days after its arrival. If the shipping company finds that your destination point is not accessible to you, they will hire a driver to get it as close as possible to your chosen location. If you are for some reason not available at the time the driver gets your vehicle to the appointed spot, you may have to go to a terminal to pick it up. It is a good idea, in any case, to have a trusted friend or family member available to pick it up in your stead.
If you would like to arrange for a different shipping schedule or delivery option, the shipping company can probably accommodate you, of course for a price. The shipping rates are determined by vehicle size as well as poundage. Any additional requests from you to customize the shipping will add to that. You can usually pay with a personal check, money order, cashier's check or obviously, a major credit card. The payment can be made with the shipper's agent in the destination country or you may prepay it. Remember, it is an absolute necessity to have the vehicle's tank as low as possible so as to not inconvenience the shipper.
Some customers ask, since the car is going international, if they can pack personal belongings in the car. However, the Department of Transportation has ruled, as of'98, that you may not leave or pack any items in your vehicle. All trucks are occasionally checked for items within the vehicles, and have the right to dispose of them. Household items and personal belongings are not allowed in vehicles, whether it is international or domestic. Your items are also not covered by carriers insurance so the risk of loading all your belongings in your vehicle isn't a good idea. Also any damage that is made by the goods or items stuffed in your car is not covered. If items are loaded into the vehicles it adds more weight to your car; which can affect the international shipping carrier and their trucks. It can damage the loading and unloading of your vehicle causing harm to the suspension of your car. - 21393
