Mebane, NC Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Mebane, NC is simple but important. First, remove all personal items from inside your car, including toll passes, GPS devices, and any fragile items that could break during transit. Next, clean your vehicle inside and out – this helps you spot any existing damage and makes the inspection process easier.

Make sure your car is in good working order with no more than a quarter tank of gas (this reduces weight and meets safety requirements). Remove or secure any loose exterior accessories like bike racks, spoilers, or antennas that could be damaged. Don’t forget to provide a working key to the carrier driver.

Finally, document your car’s condition with photos before pickup. For a complete checklist and more detailed tips, visit our Vehicle Shipping Tips page. Following these steps ensures your car arrives safely at its destination from Mebane.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured when shipping from Mebane, NC. All Sherpa Auto Transport carriers must carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance.

Before your Mebane vehicle shipment begins, we verify that your assigned carrier’s insurance is current and valid. We also require all carriers to add Sherpa as a Certificate Holder on their insurance policy for extra protection.

This insurance coverage is included in your quote at no extra cost. Your vehicle is protected from pickup in Mebane through delivery at your destination.

For car shipping from Mebane, NC, we recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance. This gives you the best chance of securing competitive rates and preferred pickup dates.

Here’s why early booking matters:

• Better pricing: Carriers can plan efficient routes and offer lower rates
• More carrier options: Popular dates fill up quickly, especially during peak seasons
• Flexible scheduling: You’ll have more pickup window options to choose from

If you need last-minute shipping (less than one week), we can still help, but expect higher costs and limited availability. For the smoothest experience shipping your vehicle from Mebane, book early and save money!

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 road debris. This option is ideal for luxury cars, classics, or vehicles with custom paint jobs.

For most Mebane residents shipping standard vehicles, open transport works perfectly fine. 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.

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.
