Auto Transport Brokers
You may not always like them, and you may find some of their deals
outrageous, but there is no escaping the auto transport brokers. These people
can provide you with the best deals in auto transportation. Read on to find
out about what they do and why you should use their services.
An auto transport broker is a middleman between you (the shipper) and the
actual auto transport carrier. These are individuals or companies who arrange
for the transportation of your vehicle using the services of carriers who
actually transport the vehicle. Think of them as your directory to the auto
transportation industry – they have a vast network of auto transport carriers
and know which carrier in their list can best handle the job. Read More
You might wonder why you should have to go through an auto transport broker and
not deal directly with the auto transport carrier instead. There are some valid
reasons, one of which is availability and flexibility of service. Auto transport
carriers rarely advertise their businesses. Furthermore, these companies usually
deliver vehicles at very specific routes. So instead of dealing with the
shippers themselves, carriers would usually deal with brokers to get a shipping
load.
Additionally, a broker can help with a low service rate. Since brokers
are basically businessmen with a lot of competitors, they are willing to offer
affordable rates. Watch out, though, because when they cut your shipping rates,
they may also trim down your shipping insurance coverage. This is one of the
biggest disadvantages of dealing with brokers.
Remember that auto transport brokers do not insure vehicles. It is the actual
carrier that shoulders the insurance of your vehicle. At best, all that the
broker can do is find a reputable carrier for your vehicle and mediate in the
settlement of the insurance claims in case of loss or damages.
