HURRICANE

Due to the hurricane hitting the Mid-Atlantic states vehicles shipping to the east coast could be delayed. While it can be disconcerting when a vehicle is delayed, please remember that carriers are facing many weather challenges and keeping your vehicles safe is a higher priority than driving in unsafe weather. Please be patient and communicate regularly with your carrier.

Weather Delays & Communication Challenges

Weather Delays & Communication Challenges

Due to the hurricane hitting the Mid-Atlantic states vehicles shipping to the east coast could be delayed. Please contact us or your carrier for details.  Also when calling your driver please remember many power outages may make communications difficult.

REMEMBER

Auto haulers are typically on the road 300 out of 365 days of the year to make use of their most expensive asset — the truck and trailer. With trucks on the road so much anything can delay them, such as a paperwork problem, a late customer, a flat tire, long weigh station lines, traffic and weather.
Due to the risk of delays, you should be skeptical of any car shipping company that provides you with an exact pick-up / delivery time.. Ask your senior sales consultant for details

Hello Snowbirds

The cold and harsh winter is rapidly approaching and many snowbirds are getting ready to leave for the upcoming winter. A snowbird is a person who will flee from the cold and long winters and retreat to a much warmer climate such as Florida and California during the winter months. Many people simply cannot stand the cold realities of the winter and will get out of dodge before the first major snowfall happens. Some people choose to have a winter home based for health reasons such as having arthritis, which can be worse in colder climates, and other do not like to deal with the cold and more importantly hate driving on snowy and icy roads. Driving becomes difficulty when there is bad weather and since the weather can be very unpredictable why not use an auto transport service to assist you with your winter home move?

There's a Better Way!

With the continuous rise in gas prices and the challenging economic times, relocating your vehicle by driving can be a significant expense. From the wear and tear on your car to high fuel cost to hotel stays during transit, the money spent can add up quickly. Not to mention, the time wasted associated with traveling long distances is priceless. Luckily, there's a better solution - you can use a car shipping service with UFirst Auto Transport. 866-259-8540

Myth:

Myth: Working directly with an auto carrier saves money and hassle.....
Some people think they can save money and hassle by working directly with an auto carrier over an auto transport broker. The problem is that it is difficult to find an auto carrier that is traveling your route let alone several, so you can compare quotes. And, carriers are more likely to charge you more when they are responsible for the paperwork and have to deal directly with the customer. When you choose to use a reputable auto transport broker, you get someone who will work to find you the best deal for shipping your car and make the whole process go more smoothly

Ebay Buyers

If you know the car is worth a lot more money than it is being advertised for, use a great deal of caution

If the seller claims there is a Buy It Now option for a few thousand dollars but does not actually have the feature in the auction itself, again, be very careful

If the seller says you must e-mail him or her because they cannot access My Messages/My Messages is not working for them/Is linked to their work e-mail/insert any other reason here - they are lying! This is one of the easiest ways for a seller to get your contact information to use for their deceitful purposes

Never, ever, use a third party to secure a transaction on eBay. If the seller will not list the car with the BIN feature as part of the auction, stay away!

Remember, conducting transactions through e-mail and/or outside of the eBay auction system is strictly against eBays rules. If a seller does ask you to complete a transaction without using an eBay auction report them immediately

Gas prices on the rise 2012

Gas prices continued an upward climb, settling at an average price of $3.59 a gallon, the U.S. Energy Information Administration announced today.
In some places, consumers are already seeing gas prices over $4. Today's weekly gas price average was up 40 cents from a year ago, and up by seven cents from last week.
"I'm expecting the national average to float dangerously close to $4 a gallon," Patrick DeHaan, GasBuddy.com's senior petroleum analyst, told ABC News. DeHaan said that following last week's average price per gallon of $3.53, gas prices are very close to "that psychological $4 mark."
"We are on course to break through $4 nationally," he said. "Some of these major metro areas could hit $4.50 or even higher. This year we may have a run for the money in knocking down the record from 2008."
The peak national average retail price of regular grade gasoline hit $4.114 per gallon on July 7, 2008, according to the EIA.
In 2011, the real annual average for a gallon of regular gas reached $3.56, which was up more than a $1.00 from the 2010 average of $2.90, according to the EIA. The EIA, which has compiled data since 1919, has the previous record high as $3.45 for 1981.

What would cupid drive?

what would Cupid drive (when his wings got tired)? Something fast? Surely it would have to be something smokin' hot; or maybe not. Is Cupid a 'burn rubber' passionate kind of driver or would he drive a quiet under-the-radar car to stealthily creep up on his love-victims to shoot his desire-filled arrow undetected?

Cars are made for driving

Cars are made for driving, so why would you pay to ship one somewhere?

There are as many reasons to use an auto transport company as there are vehicles to be shipped. Maybe you bought your dream car on eBay – but you're in South Carolina and the car is in San Francisco. Perhaps you landed your dream job in San Francisco, but your car is parked at your parents' house in Nashville. Or maybe you just don't have the time to spend on a cross-country drive.
An auto transport company is a great solution in these – and many other situations
