Coral Springs, FL Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Coral Springs, 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 carrier insurance.

Check for leaks: Make sure your car has no fluid leaks and is in good running condition.

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

Keep fuel low: Leave only about a quarter tank of gas. This reduces weight and meets safety rules.

Provide a key: Give the carrier a working key for loading and unloading.

Remove accessories: Take off or secure any custom parts, antennas, or spoilers that could get damaged.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured during transport from Coral Springs, 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, 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.

When the driver arrives to pick up your vehicle in Coral Springs, they will provide you with a copy of their insurance certificate. We recommend reviewing it and keeping a copy for your records during transport.

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

Here’s why early booking matters:

• Better carrier availability: More time allows carriers to plan efficient routes through South Florida
• Lower costs: Last-minute bookings often come with premium pricing
• Flexible pickup windows: You’ll have more options to choose dates that work for your schedule
• Route optimization: Carriers can group your vehicle with others heading the same direction, which saves you money

If you need faster service, we offer expedited shipping options with pickups possible in as little as 24-48 hours. Keep in mind this costs more than standard service.

Bottom line: Book as soon as you know your moving dates. The earlier you schedule, the smoother your car shipping experience will be.

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.

The main difference is protection and price. Open transport uses an open-air trailer where your vehicle is exposed to weather and road elements—just like when you drive it. This is the most common and affordable option, costing significantly less than enclosed transport.

Enclosed transport shields your car inside a covered trailer, protecting it from weather, dust, and road debris. This costs 50-60% more but is ideal for luxury cars, classic vehicles, exotic sports cars, or any vehicle with custom paint or high value.

For most everyday vehicles, open transport is perfectly safe and cost-effective. Thousands of cars ship this way daily without issues. However, if you’re moving a valuable or collectible vehicle from Coral Springs, the extra investment in enclosed transport provides peace of mind.

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.
