Flower Mound, TX Car Shipping

Preparing your vehicle for transport from Flower Mound, TX is simple. Follow these steps to ensure a smooth pickup:

Remove personal items: Take out all belongings, toll passes, and loose items from the interior. Carriers are not insured for personal property.

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

Check for leaks and mechanical issues: Make sure your car runs properly, has adequate tire pressure, and isn’t leaking fluids.

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

Keep fuel low: Maintain about a quarter tank of gas. This reduces weight while ensuring the driver can load and unload your vehicle.

Provide a key: Have a spare key ready to give the carrier driver.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured when shipping from Flower Mound, TX. Every carrier in our network must carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance.

Before your shipment begins, 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.

You’ll receive a copy of the carrier’s insurance certificate before your vehicle is picked up from Flower Mound. If you have questions about coverage, our team is here to help.

We recommend scheduling your pickup at least 1-2 weeks in advance for the best results. However, booking earlier gives you more advantages.

Here’s why early booking helps:

• Better pricing: Carriers can plan routes more efficiently and offer competitive rates
• More carrier options: You’ll have access to more available drivers in the Flower Mound area
• Flexible scheduling: You can choose pickup dates that work best for you
• Route optimization: Carriers can bundle your vehicle with others heading the same direction

If you need faster service, we also offer expedited shipping with pickups possible in as little as 24-48 hours, though this costs more.

Bottom line: Book as soon as you know your moving dates. Two weeks is good, but three to four weeks is ideal for the most options and best rates.

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. Your car is exposed to weather and road debris, but it’s the most affordable and widely available option. About 90% of vehicles shipped in the U.S. use open transport.

Enclosed auto transport protects your vehicle inside a covered trailer, shielding it from weather, dust, and road debris. This costs 40-60% more than open transport but offers maximum protection.

Which should you choose? Open transport works great for most everyday vehicles and offers excellent value. Consider enclosed transport if you’re shipping a luxury car, classic vehicle, exotic sports car, or any car with custom paint or modifications.

Yes! We offer convenient door-to-door auto transport service to and from Flower Mound, TX. This means we’ll pick up your vehicle from your home or business and deliver it directly to your destination address.

Here’s how it works: When you book your shipment, simply provide your preferred pickup and delivery locations. Our assigned carrier will come right to your door in Flower Mound, whether you’re in the Town Center area, Bridlewood, or any other neighborhood.

In some cases, large car carriers may face challenges with narrow streets, low-hanging trees, or tight residential areas. If your location isn’t accessible for a full-size carrier, don’t worry—we’ll arrange a safe, nearby meeting spot like a shopping center parking lot or gas station. This ensures your vehicle is transported safely without any risk to your property or the carrier.

Door-to-door service saves you time and hassle. You won’t need to drive to a terminal or arrange additional transportation. We handle the logistics so you can focus on your move.

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.
