Whether you are looking for heavy equipment haulers to move your construction companys large gear or an auto hauler to move your companys fleet of vehicles, it is important to know you are working with an agency that you can trust. Some auto shipping firms only offer individual transport, others only work in fleet vehicle shipping, and others only move heavy equipment. Others offer all three services with a full range of option for each. Whichever type of service you need, you will want to make sure the people you choose to transport your precious cargo are prepared to handle the task. One common type of auto transport service is the enclosed method, which is popular for valuable cars because it not only protects the cargo from inclement weather, but also from damage caused by road debris. If youre really concerned about the condition of your vehicles, which would make a great deal of sense for classic or exotic cars, you might even choose the climate controlled shipping environment. This could be very advantageous in severe temperatures, such as in the north during winter or in the southwest during the hottest summer months. The price you are quoted will depend on the options required, of course. Heavy equipment haulers might offer these options, but open transport is much more common. This is where the vehicles or heavy equipments are loaded onto a large trailer that is open, but there are protective measures taken so there is virtually no way that anything could slip off the trailer during transport. The only concern with this shipping method is that debris from the road could fly up and ding the vehicle, but with a large piece of construction equipment this is probably not much of a concern at all. There are other factors to consider when choosing an auto transport service. You will want to find a firm that offers satellite tracking of the shipment, for starters. You will also want to make sure that they are licensed bonded and insured, and that they come well recommended. Then you can rest assured that your precious cargo will be safe.About the Author:
