  1. WHAT ARE THE LEGAL MATTERS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CAR- SHIPPING IN VIRGINIA?

  2. Shipping your car from one place to another via an auto-shipping service involves legal matters that should be considered. Any violation of the motor department guidelines of Virginia can be hazardous to the general status of the shipping company and may lead to the legal undertaking of your vehicle. As a result, you are restricted from receiving or accessing your car in time. To avoid such unpleasant circumstances, make sure auto shipping Virginia is carried on consciously abiding by the rules and regulations of the motor department of Virginia. The following aspects should be taken care of before your car hits the road for being shipped:

  3. 1. Vehicle registration: Make sure your car is registered under the Department of Motor Vehicles or the DMV in Virginia so that it cannot be accused of being transported illegally. The original Certificate of Title of your car is also required, along with two copies of a notarized title. You might also want to have at hand the original Bill of Sale or a notarized copy of the same. If you have newly purchased the car, then the authentic Certificate of Origin may also be needed. 2. Check the condition: Make sure your vehicle is thoroughly checked for pollution control, insurance policies, and so forth. In the case of any emergencies or police inquiries, the unavailability of these documents will be extremely humiliating. The auto-shipping quotes can also be charged with fraud. Therefore, make sure your car is in perfect condition both externally and internally, along with all the necessary documents.

  4. 3. The Shipping company responsibilities: The same procedure needs to be followed by the delivery truck of the concerned company, and they should also be equipped with renewed licenses. A Shipper Export Declaration and a Declaration of dangerous goods must also be kept at hand before hitting the road. The company's Business verification documents and the car owner's U.S. passport may also be required in the case of emergencies. By law, all car shipping companies must carry a minimum of 150000$ for open carriers and 250000$ for enclosed carriers as liability coverage to pay for damages if any is caused. 4. Checking for legitimate services: The shipping company's credentials should be investigated via the Better Business Bureau or the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's Safety and Fitness Electronic Records site. The e-mail address and toll-free or local phone number of the company should be present on the website; otherwise, it may not be a legitimate company.

  5. They should also have an MC number for interstate operating authority from the FMCSA and a USDOT number from the U.S. Department of Transportation. Additionally, if they are associated with any auto-shipping brokers, they also need to fulfil the requirements of those entities. Hence, a lot of legal points are to be kept in mind during auto shipping in Virginia. Otherwise, you may be penalized with fraud and similar other charges of illegitimate vehicle trafficking. The shipping company associated with you is legally bound to show the mentioned documents and provide the discussed services to prove its legitimacy. You can now easily and affordably arrange for your auto shipping Virginia.
