It was a pleasure providing you with a quotation regarding transporting your vehicle. Getting a quote on  transporting your vehicle could be extremely confusing if you are uneducated about the service procedures. You will receive a large amount of quotes that will fluctuate from very high to very low. Please take the time to read and educate yourself on how the industry works with this information. This will help you make your decision on choosing your shipping company.

First, what you must understand is that the industry is run by brokers. Some companies will try to state differently, but again you must understand that everyone you are speaking to is a broker. We as brokers are the ones responsible for locating a driver to transport your vehicle needs. You also must understand that every company that you speak to also operates exactly the same. This will make you wonder why pricing is all over the place. As complicated as it may seem, this is a very simple process. All brokers are capable of charging whatever price they want, but this may not get your vehicle moved. When an order is booked with the broker, the job is posted on what we call the national board. This national board is called Central Dispatch. This is where the jobs will be posted by the broker to await a trucker to take the job from the broker. A standard price is issued for brokers to go by so that drivers will take these orders. But again brokers can post these jobs at their desired price. This is where you could come across companies that may end up having a problem transporting your vehicle due to under quoting and drivers not wanting to take the order, or companies over charging so that they can make a larger dollar amount for themselves. You must understand that on any given route there will be at least 10-15 jobs on the board. If you are the cheapest on the board, the drivers will take the job that offers more to them. This will delay your pick up. Now, if you are in no rush to transport your vehicle, price reduction may be something we can work out for you, but there will be no guaranteed pick up dates.

State 2 State Auto Transport prices all their jobs based on the standard rate that the drivers are asking for, we also have a network of about 600 trucks that we have created a relationship with that we trust and deal with exclusivly, so if you are looking for a set date we strongly suggest that you go by the standard price, which will get your vehicle picked up at the dates requested from the customer, as long as 5-7 days of notice is provided. In the event that you are looking to have your vehicle picked up sooner then 5 days, you can do what is called an expedited service, which will cost an average of $100-$150 extra to rush your order. Some routes do not require extra money to move quickly, as the route may be lacking work. Do not authorize any company to charge your deposit without the email confirmation sent to you. Companies that do, show they are willing to take your money without knowing if they can actually locate a driver for you. This email confirmation should state whom will be picking up your vehicle and when. This email is sent once the broker has located a driver for pick up. Also, don’t forget that you can always ask for a certificate of insurance once order is dispatched.
