Questions
A few things worth knowing.
Pricing, pickup, preparation and what happens next.
No. You pay nothing when you book. A deposit is only collected once a licensed carrier is assigned to your vehicle with a confirmed pickup date, and the remaining balance goes to the driver at delivery. Any company asking for money before a carrier is assigned is asking you to fund a maybe.
