Auto shipping rates also determine the level of convenience you can expect when transporting your vehicle. Some companies may offer door-to-door shipping, which means that they will pick up your vehicle from your home or office and deliver it directly to your destination. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=da6yxQ9_yIU
