Proper preparation and communication are key to ensuring smooth pickup and delivery of your vehicle, whether you're present or not.

Pre-Pickup Preparation

Ensure your vehicle is ready: remove personal items, have keys available, ensure the vehicle is accessible, and have all necessary documents ready.

Being Present for Pickup

If you can be present, arrive on time, complete a thorough inspection with the driver, take photos, and sign the bill of lading only after verifying everything is correct.

Authorizing Someone Else

If you can't be present, authorize a trusted person in writing. Provide them with all necessary information and ensure they understand the process.

Delivery Preparation

Confirm delivery details in advance, ensure someone is available to receive the vehicle, and have payment ready if required.

Post-Delivery

Inspect your vehicle thoroughly upon delivery, note any issues immediately, and complete all paperwork before the driver leaves.
