The State of Virginia
Virginia is an amazing state on the Atlantic coastline of the Appalachian Mountains, well known for being a great oyster producer, home to important presidential homes, diary dancing, and Brunswick stew. The state is also famous for the incredible Shenandoah National Park and the lakes and houses that border it.
Vehicle Preparation Checklist
Proper preparation helps reduce delivery problems and ensures your car is ready for inspection and shipping:
Keep fuel levels low (about ¼ tank) to reduce weight and improve safety during loading.
Disable alarms and toll transponders (E-ZPass, Virginia Smart Tag, etc.) prior to shipping.
Fold in mirrors and remove loose accessories (bike racks, antennae, spoilers) to avoid damage in transit.
Photograph your vehicle from all angles, including tires, before shipping. This is especially important for coastal or salt-prone moves (e.g. Virginia Beach).
Check battery charge and tire pressure. Vehicles shipped from cold environments or coastal conditions may have drained batteries or tire issues.
Notify AmeriFreight Auto Transport if your vehicle is inoperable or heavily modified, as this may require extra equipment or special handling.
If your car is coming from coastal (salt) or snowy areas, have it washed and undercarriage rinsed to minimize salt-related corrosion.
Remove all personal items. Federal DOT rules prohibit shipping personal belongings inside vehicles.

Tips Before Shipping Exotic, Classic, or Vintage Vehicles To and From Virginia
Shipping high-value, modified, or low-clearance vehicles to or from Virginia requires extra care:
Use enclosed transport where possible, as Virginia’s weather (snow, rain, coastal moisture) can increase the risk of damage.
Confirm loading access in historic Virginian neighborhoods, narrow streets, or gated communities. Loading trucks may have limited space.
Discuss protective padding and straps with your shipping advisor in advance. especially important for exotic vehicles or lifted trucks.
After delivery, inspect carefully for signs of salt or moisture corrosion, particularly if loading or unloading occurred near ports or coastal Virginia.
Choose Priority Preferred or First Class / Guaranteed Pickup services if timing and safe loading conditions are important, to avoid delays or limited carrier options in mountain or historic areas.
