The Department of Transportation’s Motor Carrier Division regulates our industry, and they require insurance coverage for carriers transporting vehicles. They need a minimum of $250,000 cargo and $750,000 in liability insurance coverage. There will be an inspection at pickup where the driver will have a form with a picture of a car, and he will note every ding, dent, and scratch on the vehicle. Both your pickup person and the driver will sign it, and then you and your driver will get a copy of the form. Upon delivery, the same form will be presented to the person receiving the auto transport. Any new dents, dings or scratches must be placed on a damage claim and must be notated on that form at delivery, and signed by both parties.
