4 Essential Steps Before Carrier Pickup
Follow this simple prep checklist to ensure a smooth pickup and error-free inspection.
1. Keep 1/4 Tank of Fuel
Maintains optimal truck axle weight limits while providing enough fuel for driver loading and unloading maneuvers.
2. Clean Interior & Exterior
A clean exterior allows clear photo inspection for the Bill of Lading. Remove personal belongings over 100 lbs.
3. Remove Toll Transponders
Remove electronic toll tags (FasTrak) to prevent automatic toll gate scans while your car is riding on the trailer.
4. Photo Document Condition
Take timestamped photos and video of all 4 sides, including close-ups of existing scratches, prior to carrier arrival.
How Do I Not Get Scammed Shipping My Car in New York?
Car shipping scams are a real concern, and it's a smart question to ask before booking. Here's how to protect yourself:
- Verify licensing directly: Every legitimate broker/carrier should have a real USDOT number and MC number you can verify yourself (USDOT #3849102 | MC #1098472), not just a claim on their website.
- Be wary of unusually low quotes: A price far below the typical range for your route is a common tactic to get a deposit, followed by a demand for more money once a carrier is en route.
- Never pay a large upfront deposit: Zero or minimal upfront deposit, with payment due at pickup or delivery, is the industry standard for legitimate carriers.
- Check real, verifiable reviews: Look for reviews across multiple independent platforms (not just testimonials on the company's own site) — see our verified reviews.
- Get a written, itemized quote: Confirm pickup/delivery windows, transport type, and total cost in writing before booking.

New York Auto Transport FAQs
Answers to common questions about shipping a vehicle to or from New York.
Can a 75-foot auto carrier deliver to my street in New York City?
Due to tight turns, low bridge clearances, and weight limits in Manhattan and Brooklyn, drivers often arrange pickup/delivery at a nearby accessible location like a wide plaza or parking lot.
