One of our happy customers at AutoStar Transport Express recently mentioned finding it “a bit odd” to pay the shipping company with cash upon arrival (Read Customer’s Review Here). While that’s certainly one option, we understand it might not be the most convenient for everyone.
That’s why we offer a variety of secure and easy ways to settle your car shipping company bill when you ship your car through AutoStar Transport Express. Here’s a breakdown of your options:
Key Highlights
- Multiple Payment Options: AutoStar Transport Express offers various secure payment methods for car shipping, eliminating the inconvenience of cash-on-delivery (COD).
- Credit Card Convenience: Pay the entire car shipping cost, including any fees, directly with your credit card for easy tracking and potential reward points (a small 5% fee applies).
- Flexible Payment Options: Choose from split pay (credit card for reservation, cash/check on arrival) or even direct deposit, wire transfer, or PayPal for ultimate payment flexibility.
Why Cash on Delivery (COD) Might Not Be Ideal
While COD is a common option in the car shipping industry, we understand why some customers might find it inconvenient. Here are a few reasons you might prefer an alternative payment method:
- Safety Concerns: Carrying a large amount of cash can feel risky.
- Inconvenience: You might not have the exact amount on hand or need to make a special trip to the bank.
- Tracking: Cash payments can be difficult to track for budgeting purposes.
Car Shipping Payment Options
1. Credit Card Convenience
For a completely cashless experience, you can choose to pay for the entire transport service, including any shipping fees, directly with your credit card. This is a great option if you prefer to keep track of everything in one place and want to maximize your reward points. We do have a small 5% fee to cover the cost of wiring the funds to the towing company, but this ensures a smooth and secure transaction.
2. Split Pay: Credit Card & Cash on Delivery (C.O.D.)
This is our most popular option! You can use your credit card to easily reserve your spot on our transport schedule. Then, upon arrival, you can settle the shipping company’s bill directly with the driver using cash, certified check, or money order. This gives you the flexibility to use your preferred payment method for the shipping service.
3. Beyond the Basics: Direct Deposit, Wire Transfer & PayPal
At AutoStar Transport Express, one of the best car transport companies, we know one size doesn’t fit all. That’s why we offer a variety of payment options beyond the traditional credit card and cash. If you prefer direct deposit, wire transfer, or PayPal, just let your coordinator know and we’ll be happy to work out the details.
Peace of Mind on the Road
No matter which payment method you choose, AutoStar Transport Express is committed to making your car shipping experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. With a variety of secure payment options and exceptional customer service, you can focus on what matters most — getting your car to its destination safely and efficiently.
