Poinciana, FL Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Poinciana, FL is simple but important. Here are the key steps:

Remove personal items: Take out all belongings, including toll passes, GPS devices, and fragile items. Carriers are not responsible for personal property left inside.

Clean your car: Wash both inside and outside so you can easily spot any damage during inspection.

Check fluids and battery: Ensure your car has enough gas (about 1/4 tank) and that the battery works. The driver needs to load and unload your vehicle.

Remove accessories: Take off bike racks, spoilers, or loose parts that could fall off during transport.

Have a spare key ready: Provide the carrier with a working key or remote.

We recommend booking your car shipping service from Poinciana, FL at least 1-2 weeks in advance. However, scheduling earlier gives you better options and pricing.

Here’s why advance booking helps:

• Better carrier availability – More drivers can fit your route into their schedule
• Lower costs – Carriers can bundle your car with other shipments heading the same direction
• Flexible pickup dates – You’ll have more control over timing

If you need last-minute shipping (less than a week), we can still help, but expect higher prices and fewer carrier options. For the best experience shipping from Poinciana, FL, contact us as soon as 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 transport is the most common and budget-friendly option. Your car rides on an open trailer alongside other vehicles. It’s safe and reliable for most cars, but your vehicle is exposed to weather and road debris during transport.

Enclosed transport costs about 50% more but provides complete protection. Your car travels inside a covered trailer, shielding it from weather, dust, and debris. This is ideal for luxury cars, classics, or vehicles with custom paint jobs.

For most Poinciana residents shipping everyday vehicles, open transport works great and saves money. Choose enclosed transport if you have a high-value car that needs extra protection. See our open vs enclosed auto transport guide for more details.
