Rock Hill, SC Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Rock Hill, SC is simple but important. First, remove all personal items from inside your car, including electronics, documents, and fragile objects. These items aren’t covered by insurance during transit.

Next, clean your vehicle inside and out so you can easily spot any damage during inspection. Take photos of your car from all angles before pickup.

Check fluid levels and tire pressure, but keep your gas tank only 1/4 full to reduce weight. Remove or secure any loose parts like antennas, spoilers, or bike racks that could get damaged.

Finally, have a working key ready for the driver and disable your car alarm. For complete preparation details, visit our Vehicle Shipping Tips page. Following these steps will ensure smooth pickup and delivery for your Rock Hill car shipment.

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.

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 vehicle to weather and road debris. It’s the most popular and affordable option, costing significantly less than enclosed shipping.

Enclosed auto transport protects your car inside a covered trailer, shielding it from weather, dust, and debris. This premium service costs 40-60% more than open transport.

Choose open transport if: You have a standard daily driver and want to save money. Most Rock Hill residents use this option for reliable, budget-friendly shipping.

Choose enclosed transport if: You own a luxury car, classic vehicle, or custom car that needs extra protection. The higher cost is worth it for valuable automobiles.

Both options are safe and insured. For detailed comparisons and pricing, check our complete open vs enclosed auto transport guide.

We can also ship electric vehicles.
