Global Auto Transportation’s number one goal is to get your vehicle shipped as quickly and conveniently for you as possible. That is why, for all of our auto shipping services ,we include a door-to-door car shipping guarantee! We make it easy to ship a car from one state to another with our convenient car delivery right to your door. You can lie back and relax while we take on all of the hard work that comes with shipping a vehicle.
What Does It Mean To Deliver a Car To Your Door?
Door-to-door auto transport means that you let us know the pick-up location of your choice and the drop off location of your choice and we do our very best to make sure your vehicle is picked up and delivered right at those locations, or as close to it as possible.
Even when you ship a car from one state to another, we work hard to ensure your vehicle is picked up and dropped off as close to your door as possible. However, it’s important to note that how close we can get to your specific location depends entirely on local road conditions and the type of transport truck required for your vehicle.
If your vehicle is being shipped on a large, multi-vehicle carrying truck and trailer combination and you wish to have your vehicle picked up in front of your home on a narrow street, then we will park our truck as close as possible and meet you at the pickup location.
As long as your vehicle is in running condition, we’ll drive it to our transport truck during pickup, and do the same at delivery – driving it from the truck to your drop-off location.
Benefits of Door-to-Door Car Shipping
Door-to-door vehicle shipping offers a hassle-free, convenient way to transport your car without the need to travel to or from a terminal. Your car is picked up directly from your home or another specified location and delivered as close as possible to your destination address. This service is ideal for busy schedules, residential areas, or customers who prefer minimal effort. Key benefits include:
- Convenience – no need to drive to distant terminals
- Time-saving – pickup and delivery at or near your doorstep
- Less wear and tear – reduces extra mileage and driving risks
- Personalized service – more flexible scheduling and communication
Door-to-Door Car Shipping vs. Terminal-to-Terminal
You may have also heard this phrase terminal-to-terminal transport and wondered how it compares to door-to-door transport. Door-to-door auto transport means your vehicle is picked up from your chosen location and delivered directly to your destination – offering maximum convenience. In contrast, terminal-to-terminal auto transport requires you to drop off and pick up your vehicle at designated terminals., Rather than shipping from one door to another, the vehicle is transported from one terminal location to another.
Terminal-to-terminal is far less commonly used nowadays because door-to-door car shipping is so much more convenient, but also because terminals that accept vehicles being transported are far less common. If you prefer, we do still offer terminal-to-terminal auto transport services rather than our usual door-to-door.
How Door-to-Door Car Shipping Costs Are Calculated?
At Global Auto Transportation, we offer door-to-door car shipping at no additional cost to you! Door-to-door auto transport is one of our standard services, so unless you mention a different preference when making your shipping reservation, we will automatically use it for your shipment
However, shipping costs can vary depending on several factors – especially your pickup and delivery locations. For example, if there’s limited access or no safe parking for a large carrier truck in your area, we may need to coordinate a nearby meeting spot, which can slightly affect pricing. That said, we take an individual approach to every shipment and always do our best to keep costs reasonable. Whenever possible, we’ll offer discounts or flexible solutions to ensure a smooth and affordable experience.
