Auto Transport Tips: Pay Attention!
When it comes to shipping a car from one state to another, the worst thing that you can do perhaps is not paying attention to what’s going on. Doing research and getting a good understanding of what to expect come transport time is important, and we cover that in multiple different blog posts in our auto transport tips section, but even more important is paying attention.
You’d be surprised how many people just kind of half pay attention, and much of what their representatives say goes in one ear and out the other and they end up getting upset and saying no one told them and it’s really a hassle for you, it’s a hassle for the representative, and it leads to bad feelings and canceled orders and no one wants that, do they?
So pay attention. Don’t argue with what your representative says and don’t try to ascertain that you know more than them, because you don’t. The auto transport industry, on the whole, isn’t an industry where the customer is always right – that’s something you need to understand right away.
Transporters work on their schedules, not yours, and while the best companies out there do their best to work with you, they can’t work miracles. This isn’t the fast food industry; it takes time and patience when shipping your car, and all this will be explained to you – in more detail – by your representative. So make sure that you listen up and pay attention.
