1. Enclosed or Not Enclosed Your Car in Container
You will need to decide whether your vehicle needs to be enclosed in a container or not during shipping. Generally enclosed containers are more expensive but the advantage is your car safety from wind, rain, debris etc during Shipping.
I would propose to use the enclosed method of shipping if your car is a brand new one or is expensive.
2. Shipping Routes
You may need to check according to your requirement with the car shipping company whether they can deliver to your house or particular location. Some shipping companies only deliver to major cities and certain pickup locations after which you are expected to go there to collect the your car.
Some car shipping companies will charge an additional fee to transport it to your house. . So it is important you check with the company before hand the shipping arrangement.
3. Car Inspection
Most car shipping companies will have a car inspection checklist before and after the car is transported. You must go through that checklist and make sure your condition of the car is checked correctly before shipping.
You can take your time to inspect the car after it has been transported to check for any damages to your car.
