Many people forget to clean their vehicles prior to shipping.  Don’t neglect washing your vehicle is clean prior to inspection by the shipping company. Make sure that your gas tank is lower than half a tank.  Extra weight will be an additional cost to the auto transporter and you maybe charged for it. Don’t forget to remove antennas, spoilers and fog lights. Also, make sure the radiator has fresh anti- freeze. And remove any personal items in the vehicle. If you have an alarm system, disable it.  You don’t want to lose the battery life during auto transport.
