Mount Holly, NC Car Shipping

Getting your car ready for shipping from Mount Holly, NC is simple. Follow these key steps:

Remove personal items: Take out all belongings, including toll passes, garage door openers, and fragile items. Carriers aren’t responsible for personal property.

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

Check fluids and battery: Ensure your car has enough gas (about 1/4 tank) and that the battery works. Your car needs to start and move during pickup and delivery.

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

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

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

Before your Mount Holly pickup, we verify each carrier’s insurance is active and valid. We also require carriers to add Sherpa as a Certificate Holder on their policy for extra protection.

What this means for you: Your car is covered from pickup in Mount Holly through delivery at your destination. This insurance is included in your quote at no extra cost.

Need proof of coverage? We can provide insurance certificates upon request before your shipment begins.

For car shipping from Mount Holly, NC, we recommend scheduling your pickup at least 2-3 weeks in advance. This gives you the best chance to secure competitive rates and reliable carriers.

Here’s why early booking matters:

• Better pricing: Carriers can plan efficient routes and offer lower rates
• More options: You’ll have access to more available carriers and pickup dates
• Less stress: Avoid last-minute rushing and limited availability

If you’re moving during peak seasons (summer months, holidays, or winter snowbird season), book even earlier – ideally 3-4 weeks ahead. Mount Holly’s location near Charlotte makes it a popular shipping hub, so demand can be high.

Need faster service? We do offer expedited shipping, but expect to pay premium rates for rush orders.

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 uncovered trailers and costs less. Your car sits on an open truck bed, exposed to weather and road debris. This works great for most daily drivers and is the most popular choice.

Enclosed auto transport puts your vehicle inside a covered trailer. It costs 30-60% more than open transport but gives extra protection from weather, dust, and flying debris. Choose this for luxury cars, classics, or vehicles with custom paint jobs.

For Mount Holly, NC residents, open transport handles 90% of car shipments perfectly. Only pick enclosed if your vehicle is worth over $50,000 or has special value to you. See our complete open vs enclosed guide for more details.

Yes, Sherpa Auto Transport offers door-to-door car shipping service to and from Mount Holly, NC. This means we pick up your vehicle from your home, office, or preferred location and deliver it directly to your destination address.

When you book with us, simply provide your pickup and delivery addresses in Mount Holly or your destination city. Our carrier will come right to your door whenever possible. However, if your street has restrictions like low-hanging branches, narrow roads, or weight limits that prevent our large transport trucks from accessing your location safely, we’ll work with you to find a convenient nearby spot like a shopping center or gas station.

Door-to-door service saves you time and hassle – no need to drive to a terminal or depot. It’s our most popular shipping option for Mount Holly residents because it offers maximum convenience at competitive rates.

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.
