Shipping a custom vehicle

Shipping a custom vehicle

The auto transport industry is small in comparison to other sectors of logistics, but it is still a vital element in the American economy. Thousands of vehicles get transport each month – from standard sedans and SUVs to military, sports, classic, and custom vehicles.

If you are one of those car enthusiasts, you have probably come across many car shipping companies. If you are dealing with a variety of automobiles it is important to understand the different types of auto transport services.

What do you think is the most important method of shipping a customized vehicle? If you ask an auto transport expert they may say it depends.

What are the specifics of shipping a custom vehicle?

Transporting a customized vehicle could be a bit trickier. You need to tell the car hauling company all the details about your car. If the vehicle has been modified, it will most likely affect the car shipping rate and maybe the time for transport.

Any improvements and extras like lowered clearance, spoilers, new fancy rims, or new paint could call for specialized auto transport service. In most cases, when shipping a custom car (any restored, classic automobile for example), we recommend enclosed vehicle transport.

Protect your custom vehicle by choosing the right auto transport service

A custom vehicle is a valuable asset for its owner. Preservation of classic or custom built automobiles is priority number one for their owners. We know that and that’s why we always suggest fully covered transport or single-vehicle trailer. The enclosed trailer protects the vehicle from outside elements like dust, rain, and possible rock chips.

If you have new paint or rims you want to protect them

When shipping a custom vehicle, make sure you answer all questions the broker or the carrier asks you prior to scheduling the shipping. This will help them offer you the best customized solution.

Our team is well versed in answering all customer questions as well as asking questions in order to determine the service that best fits your needs. You can always request a quote online or call to discuss your vehicle and budget. Thank you!

Ernie Roberts
Excellent and professional service at a competitive price. The vehicle showed up on time and the drivers were courteous and quick. We had to make a few adjustments on the delivery location because of roads etc but this was no problem. Great experience and I felt they took care of my car for me. This was my deceased mothers car so it has sentimental value to me and they really cared about the car. Thank you... Date of experience: October 29, 2024

I've used Corsia Logistics twice now to send a Porsche and classic Mercedes. Both times the car was picked up on time, the driver was communicative and on my second shipment, arrived a day earlier than scheduled. They have a tracking system, so I know where my car is at all times. I will continue to use Corsia for all my long-haul car transportation needs. Date of experience: October 28, 2024

We paid extra for a guaranteed date for pickup and they were able to pick up that day. The car arrived a day earlier than scheduled. The gentleman who transported was friendly and communicative. 100% would use this company again. Date of experience: September 30, 2024

Don’t hesitate to use them! Efficient, responsive, honest and affordable! I scheduled an enclosed carrier with them and received the car the same day it was picked up. Zero issues. Excellent service! Date of experience: September 17, 2024
