Before you choose which transport provider you like the most make sure the transport provider has his vehicle  insured and check if he offers parcel insurance as well,in case of car accident, delivery delay or defects. What are the solutions for a vehicle shipping? For a vehicle transport you could use car platforms/car carrier trucks. There are open carriers which are cost-efficient, but less secure and are able to carry many vehicles at one time. Enclosed carriers carry only up to 5 cars and secure them in

rigid weather conditions. Additionally, you can choose to have your vehicle towed or carry it on a trailer. It is crucial to install the car properly, so it is stablized during transport. Four wheels should be strap down with belts. It is crucial to keep in mind that weight of the load shoud not exceed the actual weight of the platform. You may move an auto yourself only if you have an appropriate driving licence for this job and a car you plan to transport does not exceed 3,5 tonne. When hiring a shipping company to transport an auto within the EU, most probably you will need a CRM note. Shipping a vehicle with car carrier trucks within the UK costs around 1 pounds per km. On a longer route, above 300 kilometers per kilometer. Shipping a vehicle with autotransporters/car carrier trucks abroad costs around 0,2-0,5 GBP per kilometer, depending on the route lenght.
