Our Story
Delivering Excellence
Flat-rate Shipping was established based on a need. First, we wanted to offer our customers peace of mind, knowing that they would not experience a price increase after the pickup, which is a common theme in the moving industry.
Secondly, there are no good shipping options for smaller moves or shipments, and we wanted to fill that gap by offering our clients reasonable cost options for shipping and moving a smaller volume of goods.
Lastly, we offer transparency. As a moving and shipping company, we need to profit from our services, but our margins are thin because we are focused on executing quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of shipping a car can vary based on several factors, including the distance, the type of vehicle, the chosen shipping method (open or enclosed carrier), the time of year, and the transportation company’s rates. On average, car shipping within the same country can range from $500 to $1,500, while international shipping costs can go higher, depending on the destination and additional services. It’s best to obtain quotes from different carriers to get a more accurate estimate for your specific needs
The time it takes for car shipping can vary depending on the distance and the specific route. Generally, for domestic shipments within the same country, it can take anywhere from a few days to two weeks. For international shipments, the duration can range from a few weeks to a few months, depending on the destination and the shipping method chosen. It’s essential to discuss the estimated transit time with the car shipping company when making arrangements.
Yes, your car is typically insured during shipping. Reputable car shipping companies like Flat Rate Shipping provide insurance coverage to protect your vehicle against potential damages that may occur during transit. It’s essential to confirm the insurance details with the shipping company before finalizing the shipment. Additionally, consider checking your own car insurance policy to see if it provides any coverage during transportation to ensure comprehensive protection.
While some car shipping companies allow you to ship personal belongings inside the car, it is generally not recommended. Most car transporters have restrictions on transporting items inside the vehicle due to safety and liability reasons. Extra weight from belongings can potentially damage the car and affect the transportation process. It’s best to remove all personal items from the vehicle before shipping to ensure smooth and trouble-free transport.
1. Wash your car: Clean the exterior to inspect for any pre-existing damage easily.
2. Document the condition: Take photos of your car from all angles to record its current state.
3. Remove personal items: Take out all belongings from the car to comply with shipping regulations.
4. Check for leaks: Ensure there are no fluid leaks to prevent damage to other vehicles during transit.
5. Disable alarms: Deactivate any car alarms to avoid unnecessary disturbances during transport.
6. Check tire pressure: Ensure all tires are adequately inflated.
7. Secure loose parts: If any parts can move, secure or remove them to prevent potential damage.
8. Keep fuel low: Leave only a quarter tank of gas to reduce weight during transportation.
9. Note special instructions: Provide the driver with any specific instructions or keys needed for the car.
By following these steps, you’ll ensure your car is ready for a safe and successful shipping experience.
Yes, Flat Rate Shipping offers tracking services that allow you to monitor the progress of your vehicle during transportation. We provide tracking information, such as the current location and estimated delivery time, which you can access online or through customer support. Tracking your car provides peace of mind and keeps you informed throughout the shipping process.
If your car gets damaged during shipping, you should take the following steps:
1. Document the damage: Take photos and videos of the damage as soon as you notice it.
2. Notify us: Contact us immediately and report the damage.
3. Review the insurance policy: Check the insurance coverage provided by the Insurance company to understand your options for compensation.
4. File a claim: If the damage is covered by the insurance, file a claim with the shipping company to initiate the reimbursement process.
5. Cooperate with the investigation: Provide all necessary documentation and information to support the claim.
It’s essential to thoroughly inspect your car upon delivery and report any damages promptly to ensure a smooth claims process.
For international car shipping, you will typically need the following documents:
1. Vehicle Title: The original title of the car, showing ownership, is required.
2. Bill of Sale: A document indicating the purchase price and transaction details.
3. Photo ID: A valid government-issued photo ID of the vehicle owner or authorized representative.
4. Proof of Insurance: Documentation showing that the car is insured during transit.
5. Emission Compliance: Some countries may require proof of emission compliance.
6. Import/Export Declaration: Documents required by customs for international shipping.
7. Power of Attorney: If someone else is handling the shipment on your behalf, a power of attorney might be needed.
Specific requirements may vary depending on the destination country’s regulations, so it’s essential to check with the shipping company and consult the relevant embassy or consulate for accurate and up-to-date documentation requirements
