Acworth, GA Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Acworth, GA is simple. Follow these key steps:

Remove personal items: Take out all belongings, toll passes, and loose items. Carriers aren’t insured for personal property inside the vehicle.

Clean your car: Wash the exterior so you can document its condition with photos before shipping.

Check for leaks and issues: Make sure your vehicle runs properly, has no fluid leaks, and the battery is charged. Inflate tires to proper pressure.

Secure or remove accessories: Take off or secure any loose parts like antennas, spoilers, bike racks, or custom accessories that could be damaged during transit.

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

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

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured during transport from Acworth, GA. Every carrier in our network must carry at least $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance.

Before we assign your shipment, 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.

Your vehicle is covered from pickup in Acworth to final delivery at your destination. If you’d like to review the carrier’s insurance certificate before transport, just ask—we’re happy to provide it.

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

Here’s why advance scheduling helps:

• Better pricing: Carriers can plan routes more efficiently and often offer competitive rates
• More availability: You’ll have more carrier options during peak seasons
• Flexible pickup windows: Earlier booking means less rush and more convenience

If you need expedited service, we can often arrange pickup within 24-48 hours for an additional fee. Just keep in mind that last-minute bookings may have limited carrier availability and higher costs.

Best practice: Book as soon as you know your moving dates. This ensures smooth scheduling and the best rates for your Acworth car shipment.

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. This is the most common and affordable option. Your vehicle is exposed to weather and road elements during transit, but it’s safe and reliable for most cars.

Enclosed auto transport ships your vehicle in a fully covered trailer. This provides maximum protection from weather, dust, and road debris. It costs 40-60% more than open transport.

Choose open transport if: You’re shipping a standard daily driver and want to save money. About 90% of vehicles shipped from Acworth use this method.

Choose enclosed transport if: You own a luxury car, classic vehicle, exotic sports car, or custom vehicle with special paint. The extra cost is worth it for high-value vehicles.

Both options are fully insured. Learn more in our open vs enclosed auto transport guide.

Yes! We offer door-to-door auto transport service to and from Acworth, GA. This is our most popular shipping option because it’s the most convenient.

Here’s how it works: When you book your shipment, simply provide your pickup and delivery addresses. Our carrier will come directly to your home or business in Acworth to pick up your vehicle and deliver it right to your destination address.

In most Acworth neighborhoods, door-to-door service works perfectly. However, if your street has low-hanging trees, tight turns, or restrictions on large trucks, the driver may ask to meet you at a nearby location. This could be a shopping center parking lot, gas station, or main road that’s easy to access. Don’t worry—the driver will contact you in advance to coordinate the best spot.

Our goal is to make shipping your car as easy as possible while keeping your vehicle safe throughout the process.

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.
