Why snowbirds prefer car shipping instead of driving:
Ship personal items
Ship one suitcase or box with personal belongings (under 100 lbs.) in the trunk at no additional charge. Keep in mind that due to safety standards, the assigned trucker has the right to check the trunk for unlawful items.
Save time
Avoid the hassles of long-distance travel by skipping straight to your destination, and let JRS Freight safely and securely ship your car to your door.
No extra travel spending
Heading south in your automobile may sound pleasant but could turn sour when hotel, gas and food costs start to pile up. Instead, go with the ease of snowbirds car transport services from JRS Freight.
Avoid the lengthy driving
Avoid the frustrating highway traffic and road work when relocating for the cold season. Instead of driving your vehicle, ship it with us.

If your car shipment is only traveling by land, a policy of up to $100,000 is provided by the motor carrier that transports your vehicle. But, if you’re shipping to Hawaii or somewhere else that requires ocean transit, your shipment will be subject to the insurance policy of the oceanic transporter.

Yes, it is. The insurance that will cover your automobile is the trucker’s cargo insurance. We have special requirements for all the carriers that we work with in terms of the limit of their cargo insurance. JRS Freight has contingent cargo insurance as well.
While you don’t personally need to be present, it is recommended that someone of legal age is at both the pickup and delivery points. The vehicle will need to be inspected and have its current condition marked on the Bill of Lading (BOL).
