Classic Car Shipping 101 – Valuable Tips from Fisher Shipping
Regardless of what the vehicle make or model is, classic car transport should be a seamless experience. Here are our top 4 tips for shipping a classic car.
Read customer reviews
The biggest mistake classic car owners can make is selecting a transporter solely based on the lowest cost. This is a huge red flag because many companies in the auto transport industry cut corners and hire unreliable carriers or use old equipment. The lowest price can lead to unwanted delays, stress and in some cases damage.
Avoid inaccurate quote calculators
Ignore the sites that offer a car shipping quote calculator as it’s often an inaccurate price. The true cost to ship a classic car depends on factors like the time of year, location and type of shipping such as enclosed transport. It costs more but is well worth the peace of mind.
Focus on reliability, not cost
That being said, instead of focusing on cost, we recommend selecting your classic car shipping company on the greatest likelihood of a safe, on-time pickup and delivery. The best classic car transporter has a flawless five star reputation among customers. This means one bad review is one too many.
Get honest and upfront timing & cost
They are a well-established car shipping company, fully licensed and insured. The transporter is laser focused on quality, reliability and provides an all-inclusive price quote. You can trust they will do what they say they will.

1988 Mustang delivered a day earlier than expected...
I used Fisher Shipping to move my 1988 Mustang that I bought online from New Castle, DE to Long Island. I was told by Mike at Fisher Shipping that it would take about 5 days to get my car to me. I was told 2 days later that it was still not picked up from the dealership and that it might take an extra day than expected. I got a voicemail from Mike at Fisher shipping a day later telling me my car was to be delivered a day earlier than I originally expected. Sure enough, I got a call from the trucker the next day and got my car early. I would use these guys again because they delivered my car a day early and kept me in the loop the whole time.
