What are the qualities you look for in a service provider?
For most of us, it goes beyond just competence; we look for punctuality, efficiency, professionalism and transparency.
More than that, though, people really appreciate feeling valued and respected, and that’s one of the central tenets that we’ve built our business on here at SGT Auto Transport.
We put customers at the front of everything we do - if it weren’t for customers, we wouldn’t have a reason to be in business at all.
Everyone on our team – from sales and admin to support and dispatch to the 25,000 transport drivers in the field – we all shoot for excellence and top performance for the people we serve.
Types of Vehicle Transportation Services we provide in Ohio
To better serve the needs of our customers and the various kinds of vehicles they have, we’ve developed several different options for transporting a car across country:
Open car transport: this is the most affordable and by far the most popular transport method for most customers. With open car transport, your car is loaded onto a double decker trailer along with several others, for more efficient routing and delivery along the driver’s route. Open car transport leaves your car exposed to the weather, but it’s the most budget-friendly way to go.
Enclosed car transport: many customers feel the need for an added measure of security and protection for a rare, valuable or fragile car. With enclosed car transport, your vehicle is loaded into a closed trailer and locked in, so it’s sealed up tight for its entire trip. Enclosed car transport is a good option for sports cars and exotics that have low ground clearance; it does, however, come at a premium cost.
Guaranteed pickup service: we respect your time and we know that nobody wants to wait around all afternoon to connect with their transport driver. Guaranteed pickup service is your assurance that your driver will be at your location at a predetermined time and date, and the same applies for delivery at the destination point.
Express car shipping: there are always details to iron out in any auto logistics job, which is why we ask for two weeks’ lead time when you book your shipment. We know that’s not always doable, though, and we do offer expedited delivery for rush jobs and last-minute deliveries.
Prepare Your Vehicle for a cross-country Auto Transportation to or from Ohio
Here are a few tips to ensure that your vehicle pickup is glitch-free:
Please remember that the transport driver needs a copy of your car’s ignition key.
Please remove any detachable external accessories like rooftop cargo boxes, antennas or bike racks.
If you live on a congested street in a city or suburb, it can be difficult (or even illegal) to get a commercial transport truck through your neighborhood. If that’s the case, consider getting together with your transport driver at an easier spot, such as an open parking lot.
If your car can’t start, run, steer and stop under its own power, this is something we need to know about ahead of time. We can and do ship non-running vehicles, but it requires more time and special equipment.
Please check your car for fluid leaks: coolant, motor oil, transmission, brake or power steering fluid.
Please ship your car with a quarter tank of fuel or less. Curb weight is a big part of shipping costs, fuel weighs about 6 lbs per gallon, so less fuel means less weight and savings on your bill.

Top 5 hints for transporting/moving to this state
You might not have realized, but Ohio is also known as the Buckeye State. This is because of the prevalence of Buckeye trees that grow throughout the state. They grow exceptionally well near streams and rivers. The tree gets its name from the nuts that resemble the color and shape of a deer’s eye.
East-central Ohio is home to the largest concentration of Amish settlements in the country. 40,000 Amish call the settlements their home.
One of Ohio’s greatest strengths is the cost of living. Ohio is an inexpensive state to live in. Even the larger cities are more affordable than many other Midwestern cities.
It gets very cold in Ohio in the winter. It’s therefore imperative to stock up on your winter gear.
If sports are your thing, you’ll be pleased to learn the state hosts six teams that take part in the NBA, NFL, MLB, or NHL. Football is also a huge deal with many residents living and breathing football.
