The simple fact is, if you work at a used car dealership there is often a need to have inventory shipped. For the inexperienced sales manager, this can seem like quite a daunting task. With so many movers out there, who are experienced at shipping cars, which one is the right one? How can I find a dependable auto transport agent that I can rely on?
Luckily finding the right company to ship your vehicles isn’t difficult. In fact right now, you are only four steps away from finding a car shipping company that you can work with for years to come. Here are the questions you should ask, and the information you should find before selecting an agent to move your cars:

1. Timeframe: The first thing you should ask the shipping company is how long they usually take with pickups, and shipping to various places. The simple fact is that if you buy a car from an online auction, or other source, you likely need it soon. The carrier that takes a week to get your inventory to you is better than the shipper who generally takes 3 weeks to deliver.
2. Reliability: You will also want to know about reliability. Are they available for pickup on a regular basis, or is the driver always on the other side of the country? As a business you need a dependable auto shipper that you can rely on to get your inventory where it needs to go.
3. Call those references: After you have talked to a couple of companies, and narrowed down your list, take the time to call their references. Many times the list of references will include other dealership. In most cases the other sales manager will be happy to share information on the shipping company.
4. Confirm Insurance: Finally when you have selected a company that will be shipping your cars, make sure they have insurance to suit. Your inventory is your bread and butter, and you don’t want further issues when damage does occur. A simple call to the companies insurer is an easy way to make sure you’re covered.

As long as you take a few moments to find the right company for your car shipping needs, you’ll likely find a company that you can work with. The simple fact is that with so many companies out there, it can be quite intimidating. With a few phone calls, however, you will find the right people for shipping your cars.
