Castle Rock, CO Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Castle Rock, CO is simple but important. Start by removing all personal items from inside your car, including toll passes, GPS devices, and any fragile items that could break during transit.

Clean your vehicle inside and out before pickup. This helps our driver document any existing damage during the inspection. Make sure to have less than a quarter tank of gas – this reduces weight and meets safety requirements.

Remove or secure any loose exterior accessories like bike racks, spoilers, or antennas that could be damaged. Disable your car alarm and make sure you have a working key available for the carrier.

Finally, document your car’s condition with photos before pickup. For complete preparation details, check our Vehicle Shipping Tips page. Following these steps ensures smooth pickup from Castle Rock and safe delivery to your destination.

For car shipping from Castle Rock, CO, 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 bundle your vehicle with other shipments in the Castle Rock area
• More availability: Popular routes fill up quickly, especially during peak seasons
• Less stress: You’ll have backup options if your first choice isn’t available

If you need last-minute shipping, we can often accommodate requests with 3-7 days notice, though expect higher costs and limited carrier options. For the smoothest experience from Castle Rock, book as early as possible once you know your moving dates.

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 where your car is exposed to weather and road debris. This is the most common and affordable option, costing significantly less than enclosed transport.

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

Choose open transport if: You have a standard daily driver and want to save money. Most cars from Castle Rock ship safely this way.

Choose enclosed transport if: You own a luxury car, classic vehicle, exotic car, or have custom paint work that needs extra protection during shipping.

For Castle Rock residents, both options are readily available. See our detailed open vs enclosed auto transport guide to help you decide which service fits your needs and budget.

Yes, Sherpa Auto Transport offers convenient door-to-door auto transport service for Castle Rock, CO residents. When you book your car shipment, simply provide your pickup and delivery addresses. Our carrier will come directly to your home or business in Castle Rock to collect your vehicle.

Castle Rock’s well-developed road network makes door-to-door service possible in most areas. However, if your street has low-hanging branches, narrow roads, or weight restrictions that prevent our large carrier trucks from accessing your location safely, we’ll work with you to find a nearby alternative. This might be a local shopping center, gas station, or main road that’s just a short drive from your home.

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.
