Acworth, GA Car Shipping

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

Remove personal items: Take out all belongings, including toll passes, garage door openers, and any fragile items. Most carriers don’t allow personal items for insurance reasons.

Clean your car: Wash your vehicle inside and out. This helps you spot any existing damage during the inspection.

Check fluids and battery: Make sure your car has enough gas (about 1/4 tank), oil, and brake fluid. Ensure your battery is charged so the carrier can move your vehicle.

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

Document condition: Take photos of your car from all angles before pickup. This protects you if any damage occurs.

Have keys ready: Provide one set of working keys to the driver. Make sure all keys work for doors, ignition, and any locks.

We recommend booking your car shipping service from Acworth, GA 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 service the Atlanta metro area
• Lower costs – Carriers can group your car with other shipments
• Flexible pickup times – You’ll have more scheduling options

For peak seasons (summer months and holidays), book 3-4 weeks ahead. During busy times, carriers fill up quickly in popular areas like Acworth.

Need to ship last-minute? We can often accommodate rush orders, but expect higher prices and limited carrier options.

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, exposed to weather and road debris. It’s safe for most vehicles and costs significantly less.

Enclosed transport protects your car inside a covered trailer. It costs 40-60% more than open transport but shields your vehicle from weather, dust, and debris. This option is ideal for luxury cars, classics, or vehicles with custom paint jobs.

For most Acworth residents shipping standard vehicles, open transport works perfectly. Choose enclosed transport if your car is worth over $50,000 or has sentimental value you can’t replace. See our complete open vs enclosed guide for detailed comparisons and pricing.
