Frequently Asked Questions About Car Shipping Costs
Get answers to the most common questions about our pricing calculator
How accurate is your car shipping cost calculator?
Our calculator provides highly accurate estimates by analyzing real-time market data, current fuel prices, and historical shipping costs. Most quotes are within 90-95% of the final price, with the calculator showing progressive accuracy as you complete more details.
Why don't I need to pay upfront for a quote?
At Safe Ship, we believe in earning your trust through service, not upfront payments. You only pay when we successfully match you with a qualified carrier and dispatch your shipment. This ensures you're only charged when real value is delivered.
How long does it take to get a shipping quote?
Our calculator provides instant estimates in seconds. As you enter your pickup and delivery locations, you'll see preliminary pricing. Complete vehicle details for the most accurate quote, and you can book immediately if satisfied.
What's included in the calculator's price estimate?
Our quotes include carrier transportation fees, basic insurance coverage, and our coordination services. We clearly display what's included with no hidden fees. Enhanced insurance options are available for high-value vehicles.
Can I get multiple quotes for comparison?
Yes! Our calculator allows you to adjust variables like transport type (open vs. enclosed), pickup dates, and vehicle conditions to compare pricing options. This helps you find the best balance of cost and service for your needs.
How far in advance should I use the calculator and book?
We recommend getting quotes and booking 1-2 weeks in advance for best availability and pricing. However, our calculator works for immediate needs too, and we can often accommodate rush shipments with expedited service options.
