Millions of
Americans move every year. When you have to move, you know what you
need to do. You start packing all of your household belongings and
you hire a moving company to assist you in moving them to your new
home. The economy is recovering which means that there will be more
jobs, increasing the rate of job migration in the United States.
How will you move your car from your old home to your new
home?
This is where car transportation companies step in. Car
transportation companies can help you save money, protect your
vehicle, and avoid adding unwanted miles and damage on it.
Save Money
Car transportation companies will save you money. For example,
If you choose to drive from New York to San Diego you will have to
pay for gas and hotels. The average car will consume about $500 in
gas. According to Google Maps the approximate drive time without
stopping from New York to San Diego is about 48 hours. Due to the
fact that it is not possible (or healthy) to stopping for more than
12 hours you will need to spend at least four nights in hotels.
This means that you will spend at least another $400 on hotel
expenses. For these four days you will have to eat at restaurants
therefore your costs will increase even more. During your trip you
will also have to pay for tollways, which can really add up on such
a long drive. At the end you will end up spending at least $1200 to
drive your car to you new home.
If you use a car transportation company it will cost you about
$900 to ship your vehicle from New York to San Diego. You will save
$300 as well as the wear and tear on your vehicle. You will not
have to drive for days, but you can spend your time doing more
productive things in order to make your entire move a hassle-free
one.
Protect Your Car
When you use the services of a car transportation company your
vehicle will be protected every step of the way. Car transportation
companies are required to insure their trucks, as well the cars
that are on their trailers. This means that if your vehicles gets
damaged in transit, the insurance of the transportation company
will cover 100% of the damages incurred. Make sure that the company
you are choosing to ship your vehicle meets these regulations and
is fully insured.
Avoid Adding Unwanted Miles/Damage on it.
Adding mileage on your vehicle will decrease the price of your
car. If you buy a brand new car and you drive a lot of miles every
year the cost of your vehicle will decrease at an extremely quick
rate. If you have to drive your vehicle across the country you will
drive more than two thousand miles, which means that the value of
your car will be lower than it would if you use a car
transportation company. Driving your car increases the risk of
damaging your car. Your vehicle will be exposed to the hazards of
the road for thousands of miles, therefore using a car
transportation would be the wiser choice to transport your
vehicle.
