Everything You Need to Know About the State of Nebraska (NE)

On 1st March 1867, two years after the civil war ended, Nebraska became a part of the Union, making it the 37th state in the country. The state possesses a lot of lands suitable for farming and ranching activities. Before it became a state, Nebraska had a small population that later grew during the California Gold Rush in 1848. This increase in population came with a large wave of settlers arriving as homesteaders in the 1860s. Omaha was the state’s initial territorial capital of Nebraska, but the seat later moved to Lancaster. After Abraham Lincoln’s assassination in 1865, Lancaster was renamed Lincoln in his honour. 

Nebraska shares boundaries with South Dakota to the North, Colorado to the South, Wyoming to the West and Iowa and Missouri to the East. It has the appellation Nicknamed “Cornhusker State,” and its motto is “Equality Before the Law.” 

In 1922, the biggest exhibited mammoth skeleton in the world was found on a farm in Lincoln County. The skeleton, known as "Archie", originated from the Late Pleistocene Era and is on display at the University of Nebraska State Museum.
The renowned Kool-Aid drink was invented in Hastings, Nebraska, in 1927. The drink is Nebraska’s official soft drink and was the product of Edwin Perkins’ innovation. In 1872, J Sterling Morton suggested a holiday was granted in Nebraska to promote tree planting. This resulted in what is known as “Arbor Day” today. The first Arbor Day was on 10th April 1872, and approximately one million trees were planted. Forty-five other states had adopted the holiday by 1920.
The world’s most extensive train yard is the Bailey Yard in North Platte. It is situated on 2,850 acres of land covering eight miles. The train yard manages as many as ten thousand rail cars every day. In its vast locomotive repair shop, it can repair as many as 20 cars per hour.
The Ogallala Aquifer, which lies beneath 174,000 square miles of eight states extending from South Dakota down to western Texas, provides almost all of the water for residential, industrial and agricultural use in the High Plains region. Two-thirds of Ogallala's total supply comes from Nebraska.
Car Shipping in Nebraska

Nebraska is a beautiful state and has many attractive qualities. You may be considering moving to Nebraska and wondering how to ship your car. Car shipping in Nebraska is quite straightforward and can be done without difficulties if the right guidance is provided. 

Here is a guide on what you need to know about car shipping in Nebraska.

Choosing the Best Car Shipping Company

You should carefully consider the following when choosing a car shipping company:

  1. Company’s Reputation

It would be best to conduct extensive research on the company you are considering. Look out for reviews of prior customers and observe what they have to say about them. Companies with many negative reviews should be completely avoided; however, the same is true for a company that has no negative reviews.  Good and bad reviews are all part of business and all businesses get both.  Instead, read over the reviews to really get a feel for what customers are saying.

  1. Insurance Coverage

The safety of your car in the car shipping process rests solely on the company. This means that the company bears the cost of any damage to your car in this period. Hence, you must confirm the insurance coverage of the car shipping company. You should ensure that there is no form of ambiguity in this area.  If you are not satisfied with the coverage that the carrier has, you can ask your freight broker if they provide additional insurance that you can purchase.

  1. Transparency

Transparency is very crucial when dealing with auto transport companies. You must be observant and confirm that the company is as transparent and straightforward as possible. Be sure that all forms of communication are clear and lack vagueness.

  1. Licences and Registration

Certain licenses and registrations are required to operate a car shipping company in Nebraska. Running an auto transport business without them is illegal. Hence, in your findings, confirm that your preferred company has the required licenses and registrations; all of which can easily be verified through the FMCSA.

Tips for Reducing Car Shipping Costs in Nebraska
  1. Be Flexible on Your Pickup and Delivery Schedule

You will have to pay extra if you need a pickup and delivery right away or within a very little window of time. You may negotiate better discounts when you have a flexible delivery schedule.

  1. Choice to Transport on an Open Car Carrier

Open carriers and enclosed carriers are the two basic categories of carriers.  The automobile is loaded onto the rear of an open-air trailer for travel using an open carrier and secured so that it won’t fall off. Whereas this alternative is less expensive, it has the drawback of exposing your car to all types of weather and the potential for road debris while it is being transported.

  1. Transport During the Off Season for Your Route

Seasons exist in the automobile transportation business. Transport is more expensive during peak seasons and significantly less expensive during low seasons.  As your broker to advise you on when your particular route is cheapest to run and have your vehicle transported then.

  1. Discounts

Make sure that you are taking advantage of all of the discounts that are available to you.  For example, Ship A Car offers many different discounts including but not limited to:  senior discounts, student discounts, first responder discounts, and repeat customer discounts.

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've had terrible experiences with transport companies until I used Ship a Car Inc. They were honest and upfront with cost and delivery time. Their follow up is impressive they are with you through the entire process and will get you the best price. I have used them several times and will continue to do so. I strongly recommend this company, you will not be disappointed.

The service rendered to me by Larry Farber was excellent. He went out of his way to help me promptly, courteously and with feeling. He was aware that during this process of getting my car shipped, my beloved wife passed away suddenly as a result of a Brain Hemorrhage. I was devastated and sometimes it was hard for me to concentrate. But Larry was very understanding and sympathetic. That was very commendable and he deserves high grades for his services.

I had a truck I needed to ship from California to Texas. I check around to see who had he better rate and Service. I found Ship a Car Inc was the one for me. They were a little high in price, but you can’t beat the service. The Agent I was working with was Bob. He held my hand throughout the whole process. Even after my truck was delivered, he call me up to see if everything went OK and If I had any questions. Would I use Ship a Car Inc again? Yes, for sure. Ask for Bob.

Everything was pleasant with Ship A Car. They were easy to communicate with and the driver was easy to work with. The car was transported from Grand Junction to Tulsa and the final cost was lower than the initial quote I was given. It was a good experience and I'd do it again if I need to.

The customer service lady I had, Nicole Wilson, was very helpful and made sure everything was set up right. She called and made sure it was all ready to go so that the car carrier driver could pick my car up and everything. She also called me back to make sure it was delivered like it was supposed to in proper time. That was pretty cool. It was a great experience. The customer service I had was excellent. She made sure everything went like it was supposed to kept me informed of what was going on throughout the process until I got my car. I didn't have to worry about it a whole lot.

Jonathan Maldonado from Ship a Car was very professional, answered our all question. Jonathan walked me through the process and what to expect. My car was picked (on time) and delivered (2 days early) . If I do need to ship a car, I will definitely use them again. We chose Ship a Car because the rate that was quoted was reasonable for an enclosed shipment.

Called several different transport companies. This was the most professional, friendly and attentive of them all. Yvonne Bowrosen kept her word on everything except delivery timeline. She said 4 days and it was delivered in. You can't ask for better service and won't find it. Best price and great service all around. The driver was outstanding and took care of my new Honda Trike like it was his own. Thanks Yvonne and Kevin for making this a no brainer!!

I recently hired Ship-a-Car to transport a car cross country. I had used another company several times in the past, but a friend recommended Ship a Car and they were substantially less expensive so I gave them a try. Everything was done as promised without any complications. The car was delivered in good condition. I now see that the reviews are quite mixed. Had I read them first I might not have used the company, but my experience was positive. I worked with Joseph.

I would definitely use them again, and would recommend to anyone who needs a vehicle transported!

I have to say It was a great experience! Kristina went above and beyond to help me get my car shipped to Juneau, Ak from Ohio. It was difficult to even have a conversation with my remote cell coverage, quite the challenge. She was professional and delightful, when I’m ready to return I will use their services again.

I had originally scheduled a my car transport with Nationwide auto transportation (don't us them). On the day of my pickup nationwide called me stating that they had no one to pick up my car after I have made a reservation 2 weeks prior. When i originally made my reservation i was told tbwy would contact me two day before the pick. Due to their lack of professionalism I cancelled there service. I called ship a Car the same day and Pepper answered. We scheduled a pickup for the next busy day and with 48 my car was shipped from Florida to California.

Ship A Car did a really nice job. They were very professional and very friendly. The rep who helped me set everything up was very good. Also, the driver took very good care of the truck. It was just as clean when it got at the drop-off as when it left me in Arizona.

Transport came when agreed upon. There was some trouble before in that where the car originally was, the streets were too narrow for a large car carrier. No big deal, worked out a day before hand and not at the last minute and we got the car to a place where it could be easily picked up. Actually worked out better for us and the carrier. Driver was a nice guy and very professional. Loaded up in less than 5 minutes. Thank you guys.
