Auctions and Car Transport: Everything You Need To Know


Everyone has wanted to sell a car at some point and in theage of Internet auctions, there are more options than everwhen it comes to selling your car whether it's an '05, '78or a '20. With this ever expanding world of options comesthe need to make delivery after you've sold the vehicle andthat requires a car transport service.

Depending on the auction service, you can list thatshipment of the item is completely up to the buyer'sdiscretion or offer a method of transportation to fold intothe final price.

The first is often more preferable to buyers because itallows them to shop various car transporters themselves tofind the one that suits them best. However, if you decideto fold the cost of the shipment along with a hand pickedtransporter into the auction of your car, there are somethings you need to do.

First, you need to narrow down your selection oftransporters in some fashion that incorporates not onlytheir price ranges but also their reliability and servicerecords. Remember, that by folding in the selection of thetransporter to the auction, you are in some way takingresponsibility for the shipment both before you deliver itto the transporter and after.

Second, to simplify the matters with regard to the auction,make sure you have all the information about your selectedtransporter at hand. Include this information in theauction information. When buyers look through potentialcars to buy on auctions they are as concerned about thecars they are looking at as to how they might get there.

Some buyers may not want to use the transporter you haveselected; you may or may not wish to include that as anoption to turn down on the buyer's part.

Finally, when you are ready to list the car as well as thetransporter information, be sure to include a series ofprice quotes from the transporter from the car's locationto major hubs on both coasts, the mid-west and include bothupper and lower sides of the coasts, mid-Atlantic and soon.

This will allow the buyer to guess based on their proximityto one of those locations what the cost will likely be.Always be sure to list that the quotes are not exact andare not final until the buyer's shipping information isreceived.

It may seem like more work than it's worth to go throughall 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 beingtransported to and confirm a final quote from thetransportation company.

Once the seller receives the payment from the buyer theycan get the car to the transportation company of theirchoice and not have to worry if the buyer chooses atransporter that will be a hassle for you the seller.

While most buyers and sellers work in fairly cooperativerelations in order to receive the item sold and the paymentfor the item, sometimes having the game plan set will savea lot of time.
