Queen Creek, AZ Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Queen Creek, AZ is simple but important. Start by removing all personal items from inside your car, including toll passes, GPS devices, and any fragile objects. Clean your vehicle inside and out so you can easily spot any damage during inspection.

Remove or secure loose exterior items like bike racks, spoilers, or antennas that could get damaged. Make sure your gas tank is between 1/4 and 1/2 full – this gives the carrier enough fuel to load and unload while keeping weight down.

Have a spare key ready for the driver, and take photos of your car from all angles before pickup. Check that your battery is charged and your tires are properly inflated. For complete details, visit our Vehicle Shipping Tips page.

Finally, remove any custom floor mats or seat covers you want to keep safe. Following these steps will help ensure smooth pickup and delivery of your vehicle from Queen Creek.

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

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

This comprehensive coverage protects your vehicle during loading, transport, and delivery – giving you peace of mind throughout your Queen Creek car shipping experience.

For car shipping from Queen Creek, AZ, 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 efficient routes and bundle multiple vehicles
• More availability: Popular pickup dates fill up quickly, especially during peak moving seasons
• Less stress: You’ll have backup time if your first choice of dates isn’t available

Peak season tip: During summer months (May-September) and around holidays, book 3-4 weeks ahead. These are the busiest times for car shipping.

Need to ship on short notice? We can often accommodate rush orders within 3-7 days, though this may cost more and limit your carrier options.

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 transport carries your car on an open trailer, exposed to weather and road debris. It’s the most common and affordable option, costing about 50% less than enclosed transport.

Enclosed transport protects your vehicle inside a covered trailer, shielding it from weather, dust, and debris. This premium service costs more but is ideal for luxury cars, classics, or vehicles with custom paint jobs.

For most Queen Creek residents shipping standard vehicles, open transport works perfectly fine. Choose enclosed transport if you’re moving a high-value car that needs extra protection. See our open vs enclosed auto transport guide for detailed comparisons and pricing.

Yes, we offer door-to-door auto transport service to and from Queen Creek, AZ. This means we’ll pick up your vehicle directly from your home, office, or preferred location and deliver it right to your destination address.

When you book with Sherpa Auto Transport, simply provide us with your pickup and delivery addresses. Our experienced carriers will handle the rest, making your Queen Creek car shipping experience as convenient as possible.

In some cases, large transport trucks may not be able to access certain residential areas due to narrow streets, low-hanging branches, or HOA restrictions common in Queen Creek neighborhoods. If this happens, don’t worry – our driver will work with you to find a safe, nearby meeting spot like a shopping center or main road that’s easy for both of you to reach.

This door-to-door service saves you time and eliminates the hassle of driving to a terminal or depot. It’s included in our standard service at no extra cost.

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.
