Luxury & Classic Car Transport

Different vehicles, different transport budgets and different owners require different degrees of protection and security while the car is in transit. At Legendary Auto Transport, we listen to our customers and offer a few different options to meet the occasion

There was a time when vehicle transport would have meant driving your car to a depot or terminal to be loaded up and secured on the trailer for transport, then most likely delivering it to a depot or terminal in the destination city. That isn’t a terrible system, but it’s an inconvenience that would involve getting a ride to or from the terminal, and in a rural area o

While it’s infrequent, Legendary Auto Transport does offer international car shipping to overseas locations. Logistics can be a little more complex, but we can ship vehicles from Gulf Coast ports like Houston, Galveston or Mobile, Eastern Seaboard ports like Baltimore, NYC, Charleston, Norfolk or Jacksonville, and West Coast ports like San Diego, Portland, Seattle, Lo

This is where the rubber meets the road (no pun intended, or maybe it is), and it’s of such great importance that you make the right call in finding the classic car transport service that will deliver a good outcome. 

It’s so vitally important that the carrier that transports your vehicle has experience with cars that are rare, valuable or very fragile and have special handling concerns and requirements. At Legendary Auto Transport, we’ll only connect customers with drivers that meet those standards, and our compliance department does a deep-dive background check on each one before

Equipment standards are part of the vetting process for our driver network. Legendary Auto Transport will only work with drivers who are using late-model equipment that’s well-maintained, safe and reliable. 

While every auto logistics quote comes with carrier insurance, it’s a must to have enhanced levels of coverage for antiques, classics, exotics and high-dollar luxury cars. That includes agreed-on value (or collector value) coverage, gap insurance in case there’s an outstanding loan on the vehicle, and possibly valuation insurance that will cover any modifications or c

Door to door transport is a great idea for a rare antique or classic that might be in delicate condition, or isn’t in running order. We can and do ship non-running cars (think perhaps of  a vehicle that needs to make it to a specialized mechanic in another part of the country), although it requires special equipment and procedures on the part of the transport driver. 

Before your vehicle is loaded up and secured for transport, you and the driver will both perform an inspection on it for the Bill of Lading document. It’s advisable that you do a more thorough documentation before the driver arrives, and take photos when appropriate. We also recommend that you give the car a good wash job first; it’s a lot easier to spot scrapes, ding

Please check your car for any  trim parts, loose wheel covers, antennas, light bars, accessories like bike racks or cargo carriers that could possibly come loose during transit and secure them or remove them and put them in the trunk or cargo area. 

Please make sure that all four tires are fully inflated before shipping. 

Please ensure that the vehicle’s battery is fully charged; if there’s a parasitic current draw that drains the battery over time, then disconnect the battery before shipment and be sure to inform the transport driver. 

Even for cars with automatic transmissions, don’t just put the gear selector in Park and forget about it; please make sure the parking brake is set for an added measure of security. 

Please make sure any car alarms are disabled or disconnected, and please remove any toll tags or parking tags, to avoid running up charges inadvertently while the vehicle is en route.

While your vehicle is covered by insurance while it’s in transit, we do advise that you clear the passenger compartment of any personal belongings while the car is in transit. 

You’ve got your beloved classic or luxury car back in your possession again - great! We do recommend you take a few steps post-transport just to button everything up. 

You and the driver will do a post-trip inspection on delivery at the destination, and you’ll be asked to sign the driver’s Bill of Lading at this time. If necessary, take photos and compare to your pre-shipping inspection photos.

With thousands of carriers on call, we can quickly connect you with the driver who’s going to be best to handle your classic car delivery.
