Get your car from New York to Florida with the most dependable auto transport company!

Convenience and efficiency is what drives the auto transport & car shipping business. It’s somewhat ironic that cars are transported since they themselves are designed and built to provide transportation. Millions of cars, however, must be carried by truck every year for a variety of reasons.

New cars can’t be driven to their respective dealerships because consumers would consider them used vehicles. New cars, moving, college, and job relocation are the biggest reasons people need their cars moved across the country.

Why would these reasons be the most often for a person or company to use an auto transporter? Well, new cars as mentioned, can be driven cross country, but then they would become a used car which will sell for much less. When people are moving, they may have to drive a moving truck and not have someone to drive their car, so it’s just easier to have it shipped or they need to move quickly and a drive would take too long, so having an auto transporter move the car for them is much easier and offers them a way to have their car where they need it. In the case of college, every fall and summer students move in and out of their dorms. Some are not going to school close to home and don’t want to make the long drive home, but still need their cars for the off time. So in these cases, hiring an auto transporter makes sure they have their car where they need it, both at school and when at home.

Methods of Auto Transport

Vehicles can be transported in a number of ways. But most people don’t need expensive methods like air transport to get their car to Florida from New York, a simple open or enclosed carrier will do the trick!

When a person is looking into moving their car they have a number of choices: open transport, enclosed transport, and door-to-door.

Open Auto Transport

In this type of car transport, your vehicle(s) will be shipped to its destination with the help of an open carrier. The only drawback associated to this type of transportation is that the vehicles are more likely to experience environmental damages during transportation. But, the damages happen very rarely. This type of transportation service is what most people see when driving and pass by a truck transporting cars that are all piled on the back of it. This is the cheapest mode of car transportation.

Enclosed Auto Transport

Enclosed car transport is just opposite to the open mode of car transportation. Here, the vehicles are vigilantly shipped with the use of an enclosed carrier, thus the level of safety in this type of transportation is quite higher compared to open mode. The enclosed transportation is basically used for moving expensive and delicate cars from one location to another and it is the most expensive mode of transportation because of the quality and safety provided to vehicles while in transportation.

Door-to-Door Auto Transport

Suncoast Auto Transport also offers door-to-door vehicle transport services where your car is picked up from your address and delivered to the actual destination safely and securely. This helps you to save lots of time and energy. Due to hectic schedules and shortage of time, most people today opt for door-to-door auto transport services.

Terminal-to-Terminal Auto Transport

This is another method of car transportation where the company is responsible for shipping the car from one terminal to another. When the car reaches the target terminal it is locked in the storage facility and the owners of the cars are responsible for collecting the vehicles from the storage facility and driving them to their final destination. Or the owner of the car can arrange for it to be picked up and shipped a second time from where it is dropped off.

As you can see, there are a number of ways to get your car where you want it to be! And Suncoast Auto Transport is here to help you with all of them. Over the next few posts we will be talking about how to prep your car for all these different forms of Auto Transport so you will be ready for whatever trip you have lined up next.
