Boynton Beach, FL Car Shipping

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

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

Remove personal items: Take out all belongings, toll passes, and loose items. These aren’t covered by insurance during transit.

Check for leaks: Make sure your car has no fluid leaks and the battery is secure.

Disable alarms: Turn off your car alarm to avoid issues during transport.

Maintain fuel level: Keep your gas tank at about 1/4 full. This reduces weight while providing enough fuel for loading and unloading.

Remove accessories: Take off or secure any exterior items like bike racks, spoilers, or antennas that could get damaged.

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

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured during transport from Boynton Beach, 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 active and valid. 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 your vehicle is picked up from Boynton Beach. If any damage occurs during transit, the carrier’s insurance will cover it.

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

Here’s why advance booking helps:

• Better carrier availability – More drivers can bid on your shipment
• Lower prices – Carriers can bundle your vehicle with other shipments heading the same direction
• Flexible pickup dates – You’ll have more options to choose convenient times
• Less stress – No last-minute rush or premium fees

Need to ship sooner? We can often arrange pickups within 2-5 days, but expect to pay rush fees. Last-minute bookings limit your carrier options and may cost 20-30% more.

Shipping during peak season? Book 3-4 weeks ahead if you’re moving during summer months (May-September) when demand is highest in Florida.

The bottom line: Book as early as you know your moving dates. Early scheduling saves you money and gives you peace of mind.

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 during transit. This is the most common and affordable option, used for about 90% of vehicle shipments.

Enclosed auto transport uses fully covered trailers that protect your vehicle from the elements. Your car ships in a secure, climate-controlled environment with added protection.

Key differences:

• Cost: Enclosed transport costs 50-60% more than open transport
• Protection: Enclosed offers maximum protection from weather, dust, and road debris
• Availability: Open transport has more carriers and faster pickup times
• Capacity: Open trailers carry 7-10 vehicles; enclosed trailers carry 2-6 vehicles

When to choose enclosed transport: Classic cars, luxury vehicles, exotic cars, custom paint jobs, or any high-value vehicle. For Boynton Beach’s coastal climate, enclosed transport prevents salt air exposure during loading.

When open transport works fine: Daily drivers and standard vehicles in good condition. Most cars ship safely via open transport every day.

See our open vs enclosed auto transport guide for more details on choosing the right option for your vehicle.

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.
