Piney Green, NC Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Piney Green, NC is simple but important. First, remove all personal items from inside your car – this includes toll passes, GPS devices, phone chargers, and any loose items that could shift during transport.

Next, clean your vehicle inside and out. This helps you spot any existing damage and makes the inspection process smoother. Take photos of your car from all angles before pickup.

Check your fluids and battery – ensure your car has enough gas (about 1/4 tank) and that the battery is charged so carriers can load and unload your vehicle. Remove or secure any loose exterior parts like spoilers, bike racks, or antennas.

Finally, have your keys ready and make sure at least one set works for all locks. For complete preparation details, check our Vehicle Shipping Tips page. Following these steps ensures smooth pickup from Piney Green and safe delivery to your destination.
