Planning your move
How do I get a quote?
Share your pickup and delivery locations, vehicle type, preferred transport option, and desired dates. Use our quote form to prepare an email request, or call or text 614-209-9998.
What affects the transport price?
Distance, route, vehicle size and condition, transport type, season, and carrier availability can all affect pricing. A quote is specific to the details of your move.
How long does transport take?
Timing varies by route, carrier availability, traffic, weather, and road conditions. Discuss an estimated pickup and delivery window with us. Specific dates and transit times are not guaranteed.
Do you offer nationwide service?
Lavs Transportation offers nationwide auto transport. Contact us with your exact pickup and delivery locations to confirm route availability and the appropriate arrangements.
Choosing your transport
What is the difference between open and enclosed transport?
Open transport carries vehicles on an open trailer exposed to normal road and weather conditions. Enclosed transport uses a covered trailer for added protection from weather and road debris. Ask which option fits your vehicle and route.
What does door-to-door service mean?
Pickup and delivery are arranged as close to your requested addresses as safely and legally possible. Narrow streets, low branches, parking restrictions, and other access limits may require a nearby meeting point.
Can you help with dealership or auction vehicles?
Yes. Share the pickup location, vehicle details, release requirements, and any appointment information so we can discuss arrangements. Confirm that the vehicle is released and ready before pickup.
Can I transport a vehicle that does not run?
Tell us in advance if the vehicle does not start, roll, steer, or brake. Non-running vehicles can require specialized equipment, and availability and pricing must be confirmed for the specific move.
Getting ready
How should I prepare my vehicle?
Remove personal belongings, photograph the vehicle’s condition, and make sure the keys are available. Let us know about modifications, leaks, or mechanical issues, and confirm any additional preparation instructions before pickup.
Can I leave personal belongings in the vehicle?
Do not assume personal items can travel with the vehicle. Ask about the applicable carrier policy before packing anything; personal belongings may not be permitted or covered.
Where can I find insurance and coverage details?
Ask for the applicable carrier insurance and coverage information before booking. Review the terms, limits, exclusions, and claims process for your specific shipment.
