Yes, your vehicle is fully insured when shipping from Murraysville, NC. All Sherpa Auto Transport carriers must carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance.

Before we assign your vehicle to any carrier, we verify their insurance is active and valid. We also require all carriers to add Sherpa as a Certificate Holder on their policy. This gives you extra protection during transport.

Our all-inclusive quotes cover this insurance protection at no extra cost to you. You can ship your car from Murraysville with confidence knowing it’s covered from pickup to delivery.

For car shipping from Murraysville, NC, we recommend booking your pickup service at least 2-3 weeks in advance. This gives you the best chance to secure competitive rates and flexible scheduling options.

Here’s why early booking matters:

• Better pricing: Carriers can plan routes more efficiently when they have advance notice
• More carrier options: Popular dates fill up quickly, especially during peak moving seasons
• Flexible pickup windows: Last-minute bookings often have limited time slots

If you need faster service, we do offer expedited shipping options. However, rush orders typically cost 25-50% more than standard bookings.

Peak seasons to book even earlier:

• Summer months (May-September)
• End/beginning of the year
• College move-in periods

The bottom line: book as soon as you know your moving dates. This ensures the smoothest experience and best value for your Murraysville car shipment.

No payment is due at the time of booking. We do require a payment method on file so that it is available to charge once a carrier is secured. We accept all major debit and credit cards, including Mastercard, Visa, Discover and American Express. The most convenient option is to pay for your shipment in full by credit card at the time a carrier is secured.

We also allow you to pay for your Initial Payment via credit or debit card and then pay the outstanding balance on delivery day via cash or a certified check made out to the carrier.

Your Sherpa shipment includes up to 100 lbs of personal items or household goods stored in the trunk area or secured below the window line. If you are shipping to or from a port or your shipment includes ocean transit, your vehicle must be emptied of all items. Sherpa and your assigned carrier cannot be responsible for personal items left inside the vehicle. See our Vehicle Shipping Tips for more details.

Yes. It is important that you, or another adult that you trust, is there for pickup and delivery of your vehicle. This designated person plays an important role in the shipping process including documenting the state of the vehicle and signing the Bill of Lading, which acts as a receipt of the vehicle’s condition.

Open auto transport uses open trailers that expose your car to weather and road debris. It costs less and is widely available. Most cars ship this way safely.

Enclosed auto transport protects your vehicle inside a covered trailer. It costs 30-50% more than open transport but shields your car from weather, dust, and road debris.

Choose enclosed transport if you have a:

• Classic or vintage car
• Luxury vehicle
• Custom paint job
• High-value sports car

Choose open transport for everyday vehicles when cost matters most. Both options are safe and reliable for shipping from Murraysville, NC.

Yes, Sherpa Auto Transport offers door-to-door auto transport service to and from Murraysville, NC. This means we pick up your car from your home or office and deliver it directly to your destination address.

Here’s how it works: When you book your shipment, simply provide your pickup and delivery addresses. Our assigned carrier will come to these exact locations whenever possible. However, if your street has restrictions like low-hanging branches, narrow roads, or weight limits that prevent our large transport trucks from accessing your location safely, we’ll work with you to find a convenient nearby spot. This might be a local gas station, shopping center, or open parking lot within a few miles of your address.

Door-to-door service is included in our standard pricing and saves you time and hassle. You won’t need to drive to a terminal or meet us at a distant location. Most customers in Murraysville find this service works perfectly for their needs, making car shipping simple and stress-free.

Many Auto Transport companies try to tease customers with lower rates, only to surprise you with “hidden costs” later. At Sherpa Auto Transport, we do things differently. We provide one locked-in price upfront and stick to it. If unexpected costs arise, we pay them out of our own pocket.

While we may not always be the cheapest option at first glance, our commitment to transparency and reliability offers exceptional value. As a premium service, we ensure an stress-free experience from start to finish.

We transport sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, vans and motorcycles across the nation, including service to Alaska and Hawaii. At this time, we do not service boats, golf carts, ATVs, or RVs. We can ship both operable and inoperable vehicles so long as the vehicle can roll, brake, and steer, and that you can provide the carrier with a key to the vehicle. We can also ship electric vehicles.
