Beverly Hills, CA Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Beverly Hills, CA is simple with these key steps:

Remove Personal Items: Clear out all personal belongings, including items in the glove box, trunk, and center console. Car carriers are not licensed to transport personal property.

Clean Your Vehicle: Wash your car inside and out. This makes it easier to spot any damage during the pre-transport inspection.

Document Current Condition: Take photos of your vehicle from all angles, noting any existing scratches, dents, or damage.

Check Fluids and Battery: Ensure your car has enough gas (about 1/4 tank), oil, and coolant. Make sure the battery is charged and connections are secure.

Remove or Secure Loose Items: Take off toll passes, GPS units, and any exterior accessories like bike racks or spoilers that could get damaged.

Provide Working Keys: Have at least one set of keys ready for the driver. Make sure all keys work for doors, ignition, and any alarms.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured when shipping from Beverly Hills, CA. All Sherpa Auto Transport carriers must carry at least $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance.

Before we assign your Beverly Hills car shipment, we verify that the 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 means your vehicle is covered from pickup in Beverly Hills through delivery at your destination. You can ship with confidence knowing your car is protected every mile of the journey.

For car shipping from Beverly Hills, CA, we recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance. This gives you the best chance to secure competitive rates and preferred pickup dates.

Here’s why early booking matters:

• Better pricing: Carriers can plan routes more efficiently when they have advance notice
• More carrier options: Popular routes from Beverly Hills fill up quickly
• Flexible scheduling: You’ll have more pickup time slots to choose from

If you need rush service, we can often arrange pickup within 3-5 days, though this typically costs more. During peak seasons (summer and early fall), book even earlier if possible.

The key is giving carriers time to group your vehicle with others heading to similar destinations, which keeps costs down and ensures reliable service.

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 is the most common and cost-effective option. Your vehicle rides on an open trailer alongside other cars, exposed to weather and road debris. This method works well for everyday vehicles and can save you hundreds of dollars.

Enclosed 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 but is ideal for luxury cars, classics, or high-end vehicles common in Beverly Hills.

For most Beverly Hills residents shipping standard vehicles, open transport offers excellent value. However, if you’re moving a Ferrari, vintage Porsche, or custom vehicle, enclosed transport provides the extra protection your investment deserves. See our complete open vs enclosed auto transport guide for detailed comparisons and pricing.

Yes, Sherpa Auto Transport offers convenient door-to-door auto transport service for Beverly Hills residents. When you book your car shipment, simply provide your pickup and delivery addresses, and our carrier will come directly to your location.

In Beverly Hills, our drivers can usually pick up and deliver right to your home or business. However, some narrow streets or areas with parking restrictions may require us to meet you at a nearby location like a shopping center or gas station. Don’t worry – we’ll work with you to find the most convenient spot that’s safe and accessible for our transport truck.

This door-to-door service saves you time and hassle. You won’t need to drive to a terminal or depot. Instead, we bring the service directly to you, making car shipping as easy as possible for Beverly Hills customers.

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.
