Jupiter, FL Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Jupiter, FL is simple. Follow these key steps:

Remove personal items: Take out all belongings, including toll passes, GPS devices, and loose items. Carriers typically don’t insure personal property.

Clean your vehicle: Wash the exterior so you can document any existing damage with photos before shipping.

Check for leaks and issues: Make sure your car runs properly, has no fluid leaks, and the battery is charged. Inform your carrier of any mechanical problems.

Secure or remove accessories: Take off custom antennas, spoilers, bike racks, or roof cargo boxes that could be damaged during transit.

Maintain low fuel: Keep your gas tank at about 1/4 full to reduce weight while ensuring the driver can load and unload your vehicle.

Provide a key: Have a working key ready for the carrier.

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

Before your shipment begins, we verify that the carrier’s insurance policy is valid and active. We also require all carriers to add Sherpa as a Certificate Holder on their policy for added protection.

This means your vehicle is covered from pickup in Jupiter through delivery to your destination. Our all-inclusive quotes include this insurance coverage at no extra cost.

We recommend scheduling your car shipping service from Jupiter, FL at least 1-2 weeks in advance for the best results.

Booking early gives carriers more time to plan efficient routes and pair your vehicle with other shipments heading in the same direction. This often leads to better pricing and faster pickup times.

That said, we understand plans can change quickly. If you need expedited service, we can often arrange pickup within 2-5 business days, though this may come with higher costs due to the rush nature of the shipment.

Best practice: Book as soon as you know your moving dates. The more flexible you are with your pickup window, the more options we’ll have to find you the best carrier at competitive rates.

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 is the most common and affordable option. Your vehicle is loaded onto an open-air trailer (the kind you see on highways). It’s fully exposed to weather and road debris, but it’s safe for most vehicles and costs significantly less.

Enclosed auto transport ships your car inside a covered trailer, protecting it from weather, dust, and debris. This option costs 50-60% more than open transport but is worth it for luxury cars, classic vehicles, exotic sports cars, or any car with custom paint or modifications.

For most Jupiter, FL residents shipping standard vehicles, open transport works perfectly fine. Choose enclosed transport if your vehicle is high-value or requires extra protection. Learn more in our open vs enclosed auto transport guide.

Yes! We offer convenient door-to-door auto transport service for Jupiter, FL residents. When you book your shipment, simply provide your preferred pickup and delivery addresses, and we’ll handle the rest.

If our large carrier truck can’t safely navigate to your exact address, don’t worry. We’ll arrange a nearby meeting spot like a shopping center parking lot or gas station. This is common and easy to coordinate.

Door-to-door service is our standard option and is included in your quote at no extra charge. It’s the easiest way to ship your car to or from Jupiter!

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.
