- Day 0
Book
Compare estimates, choose a company and confirm the price, pickup window and payment terms in writing.
- Before pickup
Carrier assigned
Your order goes to a carrier with space on your route. Busy routes usually fill faster than rural ones.
- A range of days
Pickup window
Pickup happens within an agreed window, not at an exact hour. Drivers usually call ahead to set a time.
In transit

- On arrival
Delivery
Inspect the car against the Bill of Lading and note any new damage before you sign.
What can slow a shipment from Yonkers
- Full-size carriers need roomA loaded car carrier can be about 75–80 feet long, so narrow or busy streets in Yonkers may mean meeting at a large parking lot nearby.
- Winter weatherSnow and ice can slow pickups and close some routes from December to March, so allow a few extra days.
- Plan around trafficRush-hour traffic affects when drivers can reach you. Flexibility on the time of day helps a carrier fit your pickup into its route.
Truck drivers may drive up to 11 hours after 10 consecutive hours off duty, which is why long routes are measured in days, not hours. Source: FMCSA hours of service
