Vehicle shipment - possibility to claim damages

To make sure the possibility to claim damages if any of them take place during the vehicle shipment, you should do the following:

1. Make sure the auto shipper that you have chosen provides you with insurance for the full cover of any damages or losses your vehicle can suffer during the automobile transport.

2. Before you give your vehicle to the car mover check if you have received the car inspection report, where the current condition of your car is stated (all the damages, scratches and so forth that currently your vehicle bears are fixed therein). Keep this document until your vehicle is delivered.

3. On delivery check the general state of your car very carefully (roof, bumpers, inside condition and so forth) and make sure it corresponds to the state of your vehicle as it is fixed in the car inspection report. In case you find some damages, occurred during the car shipping, put them down and after the driver has been informed about them ask him to sign all the stated inconsistencies.
