The Most Common Car Shipping Myths & Facts 🚗❌✅

When it comes to car shipping, many people hesitate due to misconceptions they've heard. From hidden fees to vehicle safety concerns, myths about auto transport can lead to unnecessary worries. Let’s separate fact from fiction and uncover the truth behind car shipping!

Myth #1: Car Shipping is Too Expensive

Fact: Car transport is often more affordable than driving long distances yourself. When you factor in gas, lodging, food, and wear and tear, professional auto transport can actually save you money.


Myth #2: All Car Shipping Companies are Scams

Fact: While there are some dishonest brokers, reputable companies like Safeeds Transport Inc. provide transparent pricing, insurance coverage, and professional service to ensure a smooth experience.


Myth #3: My Car Will Get Damaged During Transport

Fact: Damage during vehicle transport is extremely rare, especially when using licensed and insured carriers. Most companies offer full insurance coverage, giving you peace of mind.


Myth #4: The Cheapest Quote is Always the Best

Fact: Many lowball quotes are part of a bait-and-switch tactic. A reliable transport company provides an all-inclusive, fair quote to avoid last-minute price hikes.

Myth #5: I Must Pay a Deposit Before My Car is Picked Up

Fact: At Safeeds Transport, we only proceed with payment after your car has been assigned to a carrier—no upfront deposit required.

Myth #6: I Can Pack My Car With Personal Items

Fact: While some carriers allow up to 100-200 lbs of personal items, excessive luggage can result in extra fees or even shipment delays due to weight restrictions.

Myth #7: Open Transport is Unsafe

Fact: Open transport is the industry standard and safely transports thousands of vehicles daily. Enclosed shipping is available but mainly for luxury, classic, or exotic cars.
