Auto transport is a convenient way to move your vehicle across the country—but unfortunately, scams do happen. At DEKT Logistics, we believe an informed customer is a protected customer. Here are a few tips to make sure your vehicle shipment goes smoothly:
Research the Company
Always check reviews, verify their USDOT/MC numbers, and make sure the company is properly registered.
Avoid Large Upfront Payments
Be cautious of companies asking for full payment before the vehicle is picked up. A reputable broker or carrier will have transparent payment terms.
Get Everything in Writing
Make sure you receive a clear agreement outlining pricing, pickup and delivery details, and insurance coverage.
Communicate Directly
A legitimate company will be easy to reach and happy to answer your questions. If communication is poor or evasive, consider it a red flag.
Check Insurance Coverage
Confirm that the carrier transporting your vehicle has active cargo insurance.
At DEKT Logistics, transparency and customer protection are part of how we do business. If you’re planning to ship your vehicle and want a reliable partner, we’re here to help.
Safe. Reliable. Professional.
