Vehicle Pickup in New Haven

Once you book your shipment with AmeriFreight, we'll work with you to schedule a convenient pickup time in New Haven that fits your needs. Our experienced carrier will arrive prepared to handle your vehicle with care. Here's what you can expect during the pickup process:

Meet the Carrier:

A professional and courteous AmeriFreight partner carrier will arrive at your designated pickup location in New Haven.

Vehicle Inspection:

The carrier will conduct a thorough inspection of your vehicle, noting its condition on a detailed report called a Bill of Lading. This includes mileage, any existing dents, scratches, or dings. Be sure to have the car unlocked and accessible for a smooth inspection process. While the carrier will likely take photos of your vehicle, we recommend taking your own set of photos at the time of pickup, showing all sides of the vehicle.

Paperwork Completion:

The carrier will walk you through the details of your vehicle’s inspection and have you sign the Bill of Lading once you’ve confirmed that it accurately reflects the current condition of your car.

Farewell and Final Touches: 

Once the inspection is complete and paperwork signed, the carrier will securely fasten your car onto the transport trailer. You'll have a chance to ask any last-minute questions before they carefully drive away with your vehicle.

We understand that peace of mind is important. That's why AmeriFreight's carrier network is vetted and insured, providing a safe and reliable experience from pickup to delivery.

Signing the Bill of Lading:

The bill of lading is an important document that serves as a receipt for your car's condition upon delivery. The carrier will carefully review the document with you, highlighting any notations from the pre-shipment and final inspections. Once you're satisfied with the vehicle's condition, you'll sign the bill of lading, finalizing the transport process.

Welcome to New Haven!

With the paperwork complete, it's time to take possession of your car! The carrier will assist you in unloading your vehicle from the transport trailer. AmeriFreight wants to ensure a smooth transition, so feel free to ask any questions you may have about the car's condition or the transport process.We understand that even minor details can be important.

Routes and Transportation:

New Haven is well-connected by several major routes, making car shipping convenient and efficient. The city is primarily served by:

  • I-95: This interstate runs along the East Coast, providing access to major cities such as New York and Boston.

  • I-91: Running north to south, I-91 links New Haven to Hartford and Springfield, Massachusetts.

  • Route 34: An important east-west route that connects New Haven to Derby and other western suburbs.
