Everything You Need to Know About the State of Mississippi (MS)

The Magnolia State of Mississippi joined the Union as the 20th state in 1817 and gets its name from the Mississippi River, which forms its western border. Early inhabitants of the area that became Mississippi included the Choctaw, Natchez and Chickasaw. Spanish explorers arrived in the region in 1540 but it was the French who established the first permanent settlement in present-day Mississippi in 1699. 

During the first half of the 19th century, Mississippi was the top cotton producer in the United States, and owners of large plantations depended on the labor of black slaves. Mississippi seceded from the Union in 1861 and suffered greatly during the American Civil War. Despite the abolition of slavery, racial discrimination endured in Mississippi, and the state was a battleground of the Civil Rights Movement in the mid-20th century. In the early 21st century, Mississippi ranked among America’s poorest states. 

The state capital is Jackson and it takes the state motto-Virtute et armis (“By valor and arms”). 

In 1817, the Magnolia State of Mississippi joined the Union when it became the 20th state. It derives its name from the Mississippi River, which is also its western border. Early occupants of the area that grew into Mississippi include the Choctaw, Natchez, and Chickasaw. In 1540, Spanish explorers moved into the area. Still, it was until 1699 that the French established the first permanent settlement in present-day Mississippi.
In the early 19th century, Mississippi was recognized as the top cotton producer in the country. At that time, large plantation owners largely depended on the labor of enslaved black people. In 1861, Mississippi withdrew from the Union and took a tremendous hit during the American Civil War. Although slavery had ended, it was still very rampant in Mississippi, alongside racial discrimination. By the 20th century, the state had become a battleground of the Civil Rights Movement.
The state’s capital is Jackson, and its motto is “Virtute et armis," meaning "By valor and arms.”
The Blues musical genre originated from the Mississippi Delta after the Civil War. Enslaved people sang the songs as they worked in the fields.
Dr. James D. Hardy performed the world’s first human lung transplant in 1963 at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, Jackson. In 1964, he conducted another transferring the heart of a chimpanzee into a dying patient. That was the first heart transplant surgery in the world.
Mississippi is responsible for the production of roughly 60% of America’s farm-raised catfish. The production of catfish commercially started in the mid-1960s. The Mississippi Delta city of Belzoni, termed the Catfish Capital of the World, has a catfish museum and hosts an annual catfish festival.
Mississippi is the only state in America that legally allows beer consumption in cars.

Vehicle Shipping in Mississippi (ATVs, cars, golf carts, motorcycles, SUVs and more)

The Shipping Process

Having your car shipped to or from Mississippi is not troublesome and can be done in a few simple steps. They are:

  1. Choosing a Company

This is one of the most crucial steps of the process as it determines how smooth or problematic your transport experience is. Hence, it is vital that you only choose a company after careful and detailed consideration. The details to look out for when choosing a company will be discussed later.

  1. Schedule Pick-up

After shipping terms have been settled with your select car shipping company, you will schedule a pick-up date and time most suitable for you. The company will then ship your car to your destination of choice. 

  1. Delivery

Upon shipment, you or your representatives may receive your car at the agreed delivery location.

  1. Damages Check

After receiving your vehicle, you should inspect your car to ensure there were no damages in the shipment. If there are any damages, make sure that everything is clearly labled on the bill of lading and make sure to let your company know about it prior to you filing a claim with the carriers’ insurance company. 

Tips for Choosing the Best Car Shipping Company

There are several car shipping companies in Mississippi. Unfortunately, some of them are out to exploit unsuspecting customers. Hence, the need to be adequately informed on what to look for in choosing the right car shipping company is of the utmost importance. The following are factors to be considered:

  1. Insurance Coverage

The terms surrounding the insurance policy of a shipping company must be spelled out. The protection of your car lies with the motor carrier for the duration it is under their care. This means that the carrier bears the cost of any damage to your car in that period. You will have to bear the costs if the carrier does not have suitable insurance coverage.  SAC provides additional insurance coverage for extra protection and peace of mind.

  1. Quote

This factor is equally as important. You should ensure the quote you receive is detailed enough to present all the information about what you are to pay for. There should be no ambiguity whatsoever. If you are uncertain about anything, request that a clarification be made. 

You should also confirm the length of the quote’s validity. Typically, quotes are only valid for 48 hours due to frequent price changes.

  1. Payment Options

Car shipping companies are not all open to the same payment options. In making your choice, you should confirm that your preferred payment option is available for you to choose from.

  1. Availability for Delivery

It is possible that you will be unable to pick up your vehicle personally. If someone else has to receive your car on your behalf, you should confirm that your shipping company is open to your delivery arrangements.

Factors Influencing the Cost of Car Shipping in Mississippi

  1. Location

The location of your pick-up and delivery location significantly affects the cost of shipping your car. You stand to pay less if your pick-up and delivery points are in areas that are easily accessible. Areas with less accessibility cost more. 

  1. Distance

Similarly, the distance to be covered shipping your car also determines how much it costs. Farther distances cost more than shorter ones. Hence, you can expect to pay more if your pick-up location is far from the delivery point.

  1. Vehicle Specification

The size and weight of your car determine its shipping costs. Smaller and lighter vehicles cost less than big and weight ones as they occupy less space in the cargo container.

The most recent service we had done by Ship A Car INC. was to transport a car from California to Denver, Colorado. The task turned out fantastic, as usual. I really like that it is so easy to make arrangements with them and all of the staff seems so professional. I would definitely recommend them to anyone, as I have used their services for years and will continue doing so.

With the coronavirus raging unabated in the Miami area, I needed to have my car transported to me, at my Lexington, KY home since I couldn’t go back to FL anytime soon. I talked to several vendors. They were all impressive until I talked to Bob at Ship A Car. His calming voice, his reassuring manner, and his ability and desire to thoroughly check all the facts before committing, cinched the deal. A few days after my vehicle was picked up, it was delivered to me at my address flawlessly. He embraces customer centricity, and checked in afterwards to ensure that I was satisfied with the service. I have no qualms whatsoever in recommending his service to anyone with a need. He’s the BEST!

I would allow this company to transport my car again I first spoke with Bob, who is a very pleasant, easy to talk to, caring fellow. He goes beyond most companies in trying to find a car transporter for the date needed. He returns calls quickly and stays in touch with updates. I really enjoyed working with him as he's just so pleasant and on top of things.

After soliciting price quotes from various transport services, I opted to go with Ship-A-Car because of the pleasantness and warmth of my initial interaction with their service rep. At every stage of the process — from deposit, to driver selection, to pick-up/delivery — Ship-A-Car was as thorough, responsive and reliable as I could ever have hoped. (As it was my first time transporting a vehicle, all of that was important.) I would reuse and recommend them in a second.

I very early write reviews but this company deserving of my time to sit down and write one. I contacted Bob Moran after being left high and dry by another company. We were leaving in 3 days to relocate my son. He was going to be heading to New York shortly after relocating him so we were in a time crunch to have the car arrive before he was to leave. Bob worked tirelessly to find us a driver. It came down to an hour before my husband was going to make the 16 hour drive while we left for the airport and we received a call. IT WAS BOB and he had a driver. I have never had someone work so hard to make it work. He owed us nothing as I came to him late in the game but he didn't let me down. I feel like company works differently then most out there. This is a hard industry to trust. I give them 5 STARS!

On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being excellent) I would rate my experience with you and your team a 10 ( the exact opposite of Roadrunner).
