How are we different from the other vehicle relocation companies???

For us to explain how we are different from the other companies, we have to give you a little background on this industry. Ten years ago, when you had to move, relocate for work or school, or ship your vehicle for any reason, you just found a direct carrier and scheduled your vehicle for shipping. However in the past three years companies like EBay Motors have made purchasing a vehicle on-line very common. This has changed the vehicle relocation industry in huge proportions, mainly because drivers are now in such high demand.

There are many different dispatch boards that list thousands of vehicles a day waiting to be shipped. These dispatch boards require a trucking company to search for a vehicle moving on their route, and then call that company to book the order. We do not just put your order on a dispatch board and wait for it to move, we immediately email one of our approved drivers. Wouldn't you rather get your vehicle shipped on the next available approved truck, rather than be put on a list for any driver to pick-up whenever they can?

We require all approved drivers carry both liability and cargo insurance which protects your vehicle as their cargo. We also check that all of their authority certificates are in good standing. All these records are on file in our office should you ever want to review them. We continuously track the validity of contact information on all approved drivers. It is our job to keep up-to-date their dispatch line, cell phone, secondary phone, fax and email. This is a big job because when drivers are on the road they are often hard to reach, and we want our customers questions answered right away. In this area our award winning customer service speaks for itself.

Another important thing that makes our company different is our commitment to our customer's vehicle safety. Our contracts require that all vehicles be transported door-to-door wherever permitted on one truck with no use of terminals unless the request or knowledge of the customer has been given. Every auto shipping company varies greatly with their contract stipulations. There are many horror stories in this industry of companies charging a deposit and holding you in a contract for 30 days while trying to move your vehicle. A lot of these companies also charge a cancellation fee if you cancel within 30 days. 1st Choice Shipping does not charge you anything until your car is scheduled with an approved driver, and if for any reason we can not ship your vehicle within 14 days maximum from the available shipping date, we will assist you in where to shop around. We're here to help and want to be your 1st Choice in Auto Relocation.

That is how we are different!
