Frequently Asked Questions

How Does Los Angeles Traffic Affect Car Shipping Schedules?

Due to the congested roads of Los Angeles, on highways such as the 405 and 101 and I-10, pickup and delivery times may vary. Our dispatchers closely coordinate with drivers to avoid delays, but you should allow for some flexibility with the city traffic.

What Documents Do I Need To Ship a Car From Los Angeles?

In most cases, you don’t need extensive paperwork. Photo ID, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance are usually enough. If you’re shipping a leased or financed vehicle or one that you just bought, you might have to get the lienholder’s authorization or a copy of the bill of sale.

Are There Special Considerations for Shipping Luxury or Exotic Cars in Los Angeles?

Indeed, as numerous luxury and exotic vehicles hail from Los Angeles, enclosed transport can be strongly suggested for a Lamborghini, Ferrari, Tesla, or McLaren. This would provide the utmost protection from road debris, weather, and dust in the city while in transit.
