How to Ship a Car?

Choose a reliable shipping company; provide the vehicle model and VIN to the shipping company for insurance processing. Drive the vehicle to be shipped to the shipping company or the agreed loading location; sign the contract; notify the recipient to prepare for vehicle pickup.
As someone who frequently travels across provinces for business, here's how I handle car shipping: First, choose a reputable logistics company like Zhongzhen or Huayue, avoiding small workshops. Fill in the car model, pickup, and destination on the app—the system will provide a quote, with interprovincial car shipping averaging 2,000-4,000 RMB. Before signing the contract, confirm the details, especially the insurance terms. I've seen disputes arise from insufficient coverage after scratches. Before handing over the car, empty the trunk of valuables and remove the dashcam—I once forgot and had to pay a 50 RMB storage fee. Handover usually happens at logistics parks or designated parking lots, with 360-degree photos required as proof. Track the car via mini-programs during transit, and inspect paint and windows carefully upon arrival. Finally, remember to get a copy of the vehicle registration certificate for your records.
