Vehicle Washing - In order to expedite
origin inspection, please present the vehicle to your auto transporter
in clean condition. This allows for quick and fair evaluation of the
vehicle's condition prior to shipment.
|
 |
Fuel Level - The fuel level of the
vehicle transported should be about 1/4 of a tank. This is because auto
transports are weight sensitive.
|
 |
Personal Items - Auto transports are
weight sensitive, so there should be a minimum of personal effects in
the vehicle being transported. This also reduces the potential for theft.
|
 |
Antennas - Antennas should be lowered or
removed. Temporary antennas such as cell phones or CB radios should be
removed.
|
 |
Keys - The US DOT requires that all keys
be provided for the vehicle. This includes ignition, truck, glove box,
and/or other keys.
|
 |
Alarms - Alarms should be turned off. If
there are special instructions required to start a car or to disarm an
alarm, please let your auto transporter know.
|
 |
Luggage Racks - Non-permanent luggage,
bike or ski racks should be removed.
|
 |
Cracked Glass - Point out any window
nicks, scratches, chips, or cracks to your auto transporter.
|
 |
Climate - Vehicles should be prepared
for the new climate conditions. This may include engine coolant,
transmission oil and other fluids.
|
 |
Spoilers - Spoilers, fairing, air dams
or other low hanging items should be removed to expedite loading on the
transport vehicle.

radios should be removed from the vehicle.
