What I Tell Customers Before a Long-Haul Move

Long-distance transport isn't the same job as a Nashville roadside tow, and the questions worth asking are different. The first thing I bring up with anyone shipping a vehicle out of state: have a quarter tank of fuel — no more, no less. Heavy fuel adds weight that DOT cares about on multi-car carriers, and an empty tank means we can't drive it on and off the trailer at terminals. A quarter tank is the sweet spot.

Second: clean the car out. Personal items aren't covered by cargo insurance during interstate transport — that's a federal regulation, not a company policy. People assume their stereo, golf clubs, or boxes in the trunk are insured because the vehicle is. They're not. If it's not bolted to the car, take it out before pickup or ship it separately.

Third: timing. Nashville to Atlanta is genuinely a same-day or next-day run because I-24 to I-75 is a straight shot. Nashville to Florida adds a day because Florida's terminals are spread between Jacksonville, Tampa, Orlando, and Miami, and routing depends on which one you need. Cross-country to Los Angeles or Seattle is 4–6 days, and that's not me padding the estimate — it's mandated rest stops, weather windows through Donner Pass or the Rockies, and customer scheduling at the destination. Anyone quoting you 48 hours from Nashville to LA is either lying or driving illegally.

Last thing: take dated photos before pickup, and again at delivery. I do my own bill-of-lading walk-around and document condition with you, but a duplicate set of timestamped phone photos protects everyone if there's ever a question about a stone chip or a curb scrape. It's a five-minute habit that makes claims simple if anything ever goes sideways.
