Wellington, FL Car Shipping

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

Remove Personal Items: Take out all personal belongings, toll passes, and loose items from the interior. Carriers are not insured for personal property left inside the vehicle.

Clean Your Vehicle: Wash your car so you can document its condition with photos before shipping. This helps with any potential insurance claims.

Check for Leaks and Maintenance: Ensure your vehicle has no fluid leaks and the battery is charged. Your car needs to start and roll for loading and unloading.

Remove or Secure Accessories: Take off or secure any external accessories like bike racks, spoilers, or antennas. Remove or fold in side mirrors if possible.

Keep Fuel Low: Leave only about a quarter tank of gas. This reduces weight and meets safety regulations.

Provide a Key: Have a working key ready for the driver.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured during transport from Wellington, FL. All carriers in our network 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 is valid and active. We also require all carriers to add Sherpa Auto Transport as a Certificate Holder on their policy. This gives you extra protection and peace of mind.

You’ll receive a copy of the carrier’s insurance certificate before pickup. We recommend taking photos of your vehicle before and after transport to document its condition.

We recommend scheduling your car shipping service from Wellington, FL at least 1-2 weeks in advance. However, booking earlier gives you the best results.

Here’s why early booking helps:

• Better pricing: Carriers can plan routes more efficiently and often offer lower rates
• More flexibility: You’ll have more pickup date options to choose from
• Route optimization: Your vehicle can be grouped with other shipments heading the same direction

If you need faster service, we offer expedited shipping options with pickup possible in as little as 24-48 hours. Keep in mind that rush services typically cost more.

For the smoothest experience, contact us as soon as you know your moving dates. We’ll work with you to find the best carrier and schedule for your Wellington pickup.

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-air trailers that carry multiple vehicles at once. Your car is exposed to weather and road debris, but it’s the most affordable and widely available option. About 90% of vehicles are shipped this way, including most everyday cars.

Enclosed auto transport ships your vehicle in a fully covered trailer, protecting it from weather, dust, and road debris. This costs 40-60% more than open transport but is worth it for luxury cars, classics, or vehicles with custom modifications.

For most Wellington residents shipping standard vehicles, open transport works great and saves money. Choose enclosed if you’re moving a high-value car or want maximum protection. Learn more in our open vs enclosed auto transport guide.

Yes, we offer door-to-door auto transport service for Wellington, FL residents. This is our most popular shipping option because it’s simple and convenient.

Here’s how it works: When you book your shipment, you provide your pickup and delivery addresses. Our carrier will come directly to your home or business in Wellington to pick up your vehicle and deliver it right to your destination address.

In most Wellington neighborhoods, door-to-door service works perfectly. However, if your street has low-hanging trees, tight turns, or narrow roads that a large car carrier can’t safely navigate, we’ll arrange a nearby meeting spot. This is usually a shopping center parking lot, gas station, or main road that’s just a short drive away.

Our drivers prioritize safety and follow all local regulations. If any access issues come up, they’ll contact you directly to find the most convenient alternative location.

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.
