Everything You Need to Know About the State of Georgia (GA)
The youngest of the 13 former English colonies, Georgia was founded in 1732 and included in the union on January 2, 1788, as the fourth state. By the mid-19th century, Georgia had the greatest number of plantations of any state in the South, and in many aspects, it emerged as a breeding house of plantation culture in the country.
Located in the southeastern region of the United States, Georgia is bordered by Tennessee to the north, South Carolina to the east, Florida and the Gulf of Mexico to the south, and Alabama to the west with Atlanta as the capital. Atlanta is the largest city and it is called by the nickname of Peach State.
It is also well-known as the “Empire State of the South”. The state tree is the Live Oak and Cherokee rose is considered the state flower. ‘Wisdom, Justice and Moderation’- is the state motto.
Although initially conceived of by James Oglethorpe as a refuge for London’s indebted prisoners, Georgia was ultimately established in 1732 to protect South Carolina and other southern colonies from Spanish invasion through Florida.
The 13th and last of the British colonies, Georgia was the only one to be governed remotely by a Board of Trustees in London for the first 20 years. Additionally, it was also the only colony to prohibit slavery since its inception.
Georgia was the first of 10 states to vote against ratification of the 19th Amendment, giving women the voting right. Even after it became federal law on August 26, 1920, Georgia women were prevented from voting until 1922. The state legislature did not officially ratify the amendment until 1970.
As it is one of the leading farming states, Georgia is the country’s number-one producer of peanuts, pecans, and peaches, and Vidalia onions, known as the sweetest onions in the world, can only be grown in the fields around Vidalia and Glennville. Another sweet treat from the Peach State is Coca-Cola, which was invented in Atlanta in 1886.

Reasons Why You should use an Auto shipping Company to Transport Your Vehicle
It saves time.
Using the services of a shipping company ensures your car arrives at the destination intact.
Auto transport companies help you protect your car from wear and tear.
The value of your car is preserved. Driving along long distances increases mileage on your odometer, but with a shipping company, you don’t have to worry about mileage adding up.
Cost of Shipping to Georgia
Type of Auto Transport Used
This is a major factor that influences the cost of shipping. There are two main types of auto transport carriers used. The carrier is the truck used to transport the vehicles. The two main types of auto transport used are:
Open Auto transport: This is the most widely used kind of transport. Most shipping companies have these trucks readily available. The car would be placed on the back of an open trailer and fastened for safety. It is an economical type of transportation since several vehicles can be transported at once. It is frequently used by most car dealerships to transport vehicles across states.
Enclosed Auto transport: In this type of transport, your car would be shielded from small road fragments flying into your car and bad weather conditions. If you own a luxury or classic car, this type of transportation is recommended because it gives your car extra protection and reduces the chances of damage. It costs more than the typical open auto transport because it requires specialized trailers. The driver of such trailers has experience in handling high-end vehicles. Enclosed trailers usually have hydraulic ramps to allow easy loading of low-ground vehicles.
Distance
It is quite obvious that the longer the distance, the more it’ll cost to ship your vehicle. For long journeys, there’s a discount on cost per mile, but there are still more miles and that is why it is more expensive.
Type and Condition of Vehicle
The type of car you want to transport affects the rate. All vehicles have different dimensions and weights. Larger vehicles are significantly heavier than smaller cars and take up more space, hence they are more expensive to transport.
The condition of a vehicle affects how it would be loaded into the trailer. Vehicles that are not running would require a forklift or a winch to move. Inoperable vehicles require more equipment to handle making them a little bit more expensive to ship.
Location
The location of the origin and destination of your vehicle influences the rate of shipping. Popularly traveled roads cost less because they are easier for truck drivers to locate and more customers are likely to ship along these routes. Shipping to and from relatively isolated areas is more expensive.
Delivery Schedule
If you want your vehicle delivered fast, you can go for the expedited shipping option. However, it is more expensive. Planning and having a flexible delivery schedule helps you get better deals.
Suggestions for Selecting an Auto Transport Company
Get Shipping Quotes from Different Companies
Compare the services rendered by different auto shipping companies and the quotes. Get quotes from different companies to have an estimate of how much it costs to ship your car. It would give an idea of what your budget should be.
Verify the Registration Status of the Company
It is pertinent to check if the company has all the licenses and permits to operate. It is safer to use a company that is fully registered to protect yourself and your vehicle. It’s better to be careful about the company you hire to prevent being scammed.
Make Sure the Company Has Good Insurance
Use the services of a company that checks all insurance policies of the carriers they dispatch to; Carriers must have at least the minimum insurance coverage for damages that can occur during transit (this is mandated by the FMCSA). You should check the level of coverage provided by the insurance policy they have. You can also purchase additional insurance for extra protection for the duration of the transport process.
Hire an Experienced Company
The auto transportation business demands skilled staff and significant resources. A company that has been in the business for many years is more reliable as they have stood the test of time. Be sure to look into the experience and capabilities of different companies while conducting background checks on them. Make sure you use the services of an experienced company with a track record of successful deliveries.
Beware of Companies that make Unbelievable Offers
Shipping a car from one location to another requires a lot of effort, skills, and time. If a company is offering to ship your car at a ridiculously low price, the odds are they might be hiding some information and it might cost you more in the long run. Such companies might take forever to deliver your vehicle, they may not have appropriate licensing or they might not have good insurance coverage.
Look Into Their Reviews
Check what people are saying about the company. You can get reviews about the company online. Make sure the company responds well to negative comments, and see that they don’t have unresolved complaints.

The whole SHIP A CAR, INC. crew was excellent. Well organized and inexpensive. Everyone worked quickly and there weren’t any problems, not during calls and not during the delivery process. My car arrived in great shape. Can't recommend them enough. Best shipping company ever!

Riding my motorcycle cross-country from Florida, up to Jasper Canada, and down to California put a hurting on my hands. I was looking to cut out the San Francisco section of our trip and have the bike shipped to Carson City NV. I needed the bike there in two weeks; by the end of September. Two major shippers said they could not get the bike there until October. Then I had the good fortune of connecting with Ship a Car Inc. Steve Goodman handled my request and said they could do it.
I was a bit nervous as Steve took a couple days to arrange transport and call me. But he came through and got the bike transported quicker than I would have expected. Since we were already in San Francisco, I called the shop in Eureka CA where I had left the bike for pick-up. As Steve had said, the bike was transported in an enclosed truck. The shop told me the driver was very professional and took a long time to make sure my bike was loaded and secured properly. I then called the shop in Carson City where the bike was to be delivered. They told me the bike was already there, that the driver had taken great care with my bike, and that he seemed very professional.
This was a very difficult time-frame to deal with. This was not a pre-scheduled transportation issue. It was a last-minute decision on my part. The location of the pick-up shop in Eureka CA was only an every two-week area for the two other shippers I had tried. Steve Goodman and Ship a Car Inc came through. They saved our vacation and I am grateful, extremely grateful for the professionalism displayed. I would use their service again… in a heartbeat.

This was the first time I had ever shipped a car. Meredith Anzalone was my agent and she did a great job of handling my request. My car was shipped from Florida to California and she walked me thru every step of the way. I would most certainly use Ship A Car and Meredith again This was the first time I had ever shipped a car.

The Ship A Car rep told me everything that I needed to know. Everything went as well as it could have. However, in-between times, I didn't get any updates. But as far as the information he gave me and what was done, it was spot on. The pickup was in Columbus, Ohio and the drop-off was in Frisco, Texas. The car got there a day earlier than expected, so that was a plus. I was happy about that. The driver was also great. He called and said he was about 40 minutes out. He dropped it off, signed the paperwork and received the money. I will recommend Ship A Car to anybody going that route.

Peter M. provided excellent service, I had talked to Peter months before regarding another move that I no longer needed, I had misplaced Ship a Car's info and I was trying to get my sister's car shipped from California to North Carolina. Everybody's quotes where all over the place and all the other companies stated that nobody was moving that direction or to that state. I had finally accepted a offer from another company that ended up giving me the run around and after awhile would not return my messages. Then out of the blue Peter called with Ship a Car and I accepted his offer, Basically everything came to a HAPPY ENDING and I would use Ship a Car again and nobody else for future car shipping needs.

I called for quote and talked to Willie. He gave good quote and explained how everything would go. I was sending my military son's new motorcycle (sent his last one last year). I was very happy with Willie and Ship A Car but didn't have good communication with KP Turbo Transport. The driver did not speak English well and did not do an inspection of bike before loading even though I asked for it twice. I had taken pictures before it went on truck so could show the paint chip on the fender was not there before the trip but have not been able to reach them - phone always has you leave a message but they don't call back and email is unanswered. It was picked up promptly and delivered very quickly though.

I cannot say enough good things about this company! A+ service. A+ pricing. A+ speed. After realizing that my deployment to Texas who is going to last longer than four weeks, I was tired of using Lyft and I knew I couldn’t be without my motorcycle. I requested a quote from their webpage along with five or six other companies. Paul Murphy responded quickly to that email with the second to lowest cost to get my bike 1,230 miles from Ocala, Florida to Pharr, Texas, and then followed up the next day with a voicemail. After comparing prices and reading the reviews, I knew this was the company for me. They did not disappoint! I spoke with Paul at the end of the business day on Thursday and within 15 minutes he was calling me to inform me that he had already placed my order with driver Eric Andrews of Andrews Transportation LLC to be delivered 3 days later on Monday. I spoke with Eric on Saturday to confirm where my bike would need to be left. He too was very professional and easy to work with. To my surprise, Eric delivered my bike a day early on Sunday morning. That's right, my bike was delivered from call to drop in 2.5 days!!! Both Paul & Eric’s professionalism may me feel comfortable that my prize possession was in good hands. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone wanting to move theirs. Thanks, guys.

My experience was positive. The agent, Will, with Ship A Car, was very professional and my two cars were picked up and delivered in the condition I gave them to the driver. In fact, the driver delivered my cars one day earlier!
