FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Yes, Illinois Auto Transport offers door-to-door service and real-time tracking for your vehicle. This means your car is picked up directly from your specified location and delivered to the address of your choice—eliminating the need to drop off or retrieve it from a terminal. With real-time tracking, you’ll receive live updates through an online portal, text, or email, allowing you to monitor your vehicle’s progress throughout the journey.
Typical delivery timelines depend on the distance and route. Local or in-state transport usually takes 1–3 days, while regional transport ranges from 3–5 days. Cross-country shipments may take 7–10 days, depending on weather, traffic, and other variables. During transit, your vehicle is carefully secured using wheel straps or tie-downs inside open or enclosed carriers. Enclosed transport offers added protection from weather and road debris, making it ideal for luxury, classic, or specialty cars.
To schedule your car shipment, you can either fill out a quote form online or contact the customer service team directly. For an accurate quote and smooth scheduling, you’ll need to provide key details such as:
Pickup and delivery addresses
Vehicle make, model, and year
Preferred transport type (open or enclosed)
Pickup and delivery dates
Non-running vehicles can be shipped, but special equipment may be required. Make sure the transporter is aware in advance so they can plan accordingly.
Transit time varies depending on the distance, route, and transport method, but most shipments take anywhere from a few days to over a week. Exact timing is provided when the order is booked.
Open transport is more common and cost-effective, but exposed to weather and road debris. Enclosed transport offers better protection for high-value or classic vehicles, but comes at a higher cost.
All vehicles are insured during transit. Inspect your car on pickup and delivery, document any damage, and report it immediately to the transport company to file a claim.
We offer tracking through phone updates or GPS, so you can stay informed about your vehicle’s location and estimated arrival time.
Most auto transport services include basic insurance coverage. Coverage typically protects against damage during transit, but it is important to review policy details for limits, exclusions, and additional coverage options.
Most car shipping services provide door-to-door transport, picking up and delivering your vehicle as close to your addresses as possible.
