Discuss transit time with auto shipper

Also ensure to understand the estimated transit time to ensure timely delivery of your vehicle from an auction. Some companies use terminals to store your vehicle during transit, which delays transit time.

Intercity Lines, provide only door-to-door transport, which means your car stays on the same truck and goes directly from the origin to the destination ensuring the quickest transit times. We never use terminals or warehouse for this reason among countless others.

It’s also important to keep in mind that you will likely need to pay for the car and any applicable fees within a certain timeframe after the auction ends. Be sure to read the terms of the auction and understand the payment and pickup requirements to ensure the process is seamless.

We go the extra mile during every step of our shipping services.

When loading your vehicle into our truck, we use a lift gate as opposed to a ramp like other carriers ensuring safe loading for low clearance and high performance vehicles. Next, our team uses our soft nylon straps to secure your car in. Other carriers and brokers use chains, which cause scratches and other imperfections. You can rest easy knowing that your vehicle is properly protected with the right equipment. Our enclosed car auction transport services ensure this as an enclosed trailer protects against weather, debris, and more from the auction site to your home.

With Intercity Lines, each load of cars is protected with our $2 million worth of cargo insurance.
