Learn MoreFrequently asked questions about RunBuggyOne's student car shipping services.
We know you're looking forward to seeing your car again after it's been loaded on the truck. The time it takes to get to its destination will vary based on how far it's going, how many other cars need to be picked up after yours (if any), weather conditions, traffic, etc. You can learn more about the process on our car shipping timing page.
When you book, a small deposit is charged to the payment method you provide to secure your order. RunBuggyOne then automatically charges the remaining balance to that same payment method when your car arrives. NEVER PAY THE DRIVER. The driver should not ask you for payment. If the driver is demanding payment or proof of payment, please contact us so we can resolve this for you.
Accidents unfortunately happen. If your car is damaged in any way when it is delivered, contact us immediately. Damage to your vehicle must be reported within 24 hours of delivery. We recommend you take multiple pictures of the damage and note the damage on the Bill of Lading before you sign it.
We do not recommend you place personal items (clothes, furniture, equipment, etc.) in the trunk or inside the car before it's transported for a few reasons. Personal items are typically not covered by the carrier's cargo insurance, so the driver may ask that you remove personal items of value. If your car is being transported in an open car carrier, your personal items could be at risk of being stolen while in transit. Lastly, personal items add weight to the car, which may exceed what the transporter is able to carry. If for any reason you need to pack personal items inside the vehicle it must not exceed 100 lbs. and should be in the trunk or back seats below the window line where someone can't see them.
You can place your order up to 30 days in advance to lock in your rate. It generally takes 3-5 days for us to find a driver.
The total car shipping cost depends on a few things – how many miles it needs to be transported, whether you want an open or enclosed carrier to transport your car, whether your car runs or not, and whether there have been any modifications done on the vehicle (think big Jeep tires) that would make it oversized or overweight. RunBuggyOne provides upfront, transparent, and no-haggle pricing so the price you see is the price you pay.
