Auctions and Car Transport: Everything You Need To Know

Everyone has wanted to sell a car at some point and in the

age of Internet auctions, there are more options than ever

when it comes to selling your car whether it's an '05, '78

or a '20. With this ever expanding world of options comes

the need to make delivery after you've sold the vehicle and

that requires a car transport service.

Depending on the auction service, you can list that

shipment of the item is completely up to the buyer's

discretion or offer a method of transportation to fold into

the final price.

The first is often more preferable to buyers because it

allows them to shop various car transporters themselves to

find the one that suits them best. However, if you decide

to fold the cost of the shipment along with a hand picked

transporter into the auction of your car, there are some

things you need to do.

First, you need to narrow down your selection of

transporters in some fashion that incorporates not only

their price ranges but also their reliability and service

records. Remember, that by folding in the selection of the

transporter to the auction, you are in some way taking

responsibility for the shipment both before you deliver it

to the transporter and after.

Second, to simplify the matters with regard to the auction,

make sure you have all the information about your selected

transporter at hand. Include this information in the

auction information. When buyers look through potential

cars to buy on auctions they are as concerned about the

cars they are looking at as to how they might get there.

Some buyers may not want to use the transporter you have

selected; you may or may not wish to include that as an

option to turn down on the buyer's part.

Finally, when you are ready to list the car as well as the

transporter information, be sure to include a series of

price quotes from the transporter from the car's location

to major hubs on both coasts, the mid-west and include both

upper and lower sides of the coasts, mid-Atlantic and so

on.

This will allow the buyer to guess based on their proximity

to one of those locations what the cost will likely be.

Always be sure to list that the quotes are not exact and

are not final until the buyer's shipping information is

received.

It may seem like more work than it's worth to go through

all of this prior to listing the car that you want to sell,

it will pay off at the auction's closing. As the seller,

you simply wait to confirm where the car is being

transported to and confirm a final quote from the

transportation company.

Once the seller receives the payment from the buyer they

can get the car to the transportation company of their

choice and not have to worry if the buyer chooses a

transporter that will be a hassle for you the seller.

While most buyers and sellers work in fairly cooperative

relations in order to receive the item sold and the payment

for the item, sometimes having the game plan set will save

a lot of time.
