Transporting a car or bike across states requires proper planning, documentation, and secure handling. Vehicle relocation is more complex than household shifting and needs specialized carriers.
At Om International Packers and Movers, vehicle transportation is handled using professional carriers and safety protocols.
Here’s what you need to know.
1. Choose the Right Transport Method
Open Carrier
- Cost-effective
- Suitable for standard cars
- Slight exposure to dust/weather
Enclosed Carrier
- Fully covered
- Ideal for luxury cars

2. Vehicle Inspection Before Transport
Before pickup:
- Take photos of your vehicle
- Check for scratches
- Record existing dents
This protects you during claims.
3. Required Documents
Keep copies of:
