Frequently asked questions when college kids are shipping a car
Can you pick up/deliver cars to or from a campus?
Yes! Montway Auto Transport has tons of experience shipping to and/from every campus across the country. If the final destination is located on a narrow or tight street, the truck driver may need to coordinate a dropoff location as close to campus as possible.
Are student auto transport discounts available?
At this time we do not offer student discounts. We do, however, offer returning customer discounts.
Can I keep personal items in the car?
Yes if you’re transporting your car only by land. If this is the case, you can have free of charge up to 1 piece of luggage, such as a suitcase or a bag, of up to 100 lb. placed in the trunk or cargo area only. If transporting your car over water (to somewhere like Hawaii) you cannot ship personal items in your vehicle. The vehicle must be completely empty of personal belongings, except for factory installed equipment or the Port will reject it.
Do I need to be present at pickup and dropoff locations?
You don’t personally need to be at the pickup location, but it is highly recommended that you have a representative at both the pickup and delivery points (if you cannot be there personally). The representative must be at least 18 years of age. At both pickup and delivery, you (or your pickup representative) will need to inspect the vehicle and mark any damage on the Bill of Lading (BOL) before signing it.
Is it better to drive or ship a car to campus?
It depends on your distance, time, and budget. Driving may be cheaper for short distances and gives you flexibility. Shipping is safer for long distances, avoids wear and tear, and saves time, but it can be more expensive. Consider your schedule, comfort with long drives, and total costs before deciding.
Do I need insurance when shipping a car?
Your vehicle will be insured by the carrier’s cargo and liability policies as well as Montway’s contingent cargo insurance, with protection up to $250,000 should the motor carrier and/or their insurance provider fail to fully cover a valid claim. This coverage is included in your Montway car shipping service at no additional cost.
Do I need a car on campus?
It depends on your college and lifestyle. Some campuses have everything within walking distance and offer good public transit. Others may be more spread out, or in remote areas where a car is helpful. Check your school’s parking policies, local transportation options, and your personal needs before bringing a car.
