Is my car insured during transport?
Every carrier SAKAEM uses is FMCSA-licensed and insured, with at least $1,000,000 liability and $100,000 cargo insurance. Ask what the carrier's policy covers, and note existing marks on the condition report at pickup. For questions about your own coverage, check with your insurer.
Can I leave personal items in the car?
SAKAEM allows up to 100 lbs of personal items in the trunk, kept below the window line. Pack only what fits within that limit, secure loose items, and remove valuables or anything you need during the trip. Hawaii ocean shipments have no personal-items allowance.
Can you ship a non-running car?
SAKAEM can arrange transport for a non-running car if it rolls, brakes, and steers, and a key is available. Tell us its condition before booking so the carrier can plan for the right loading needs and pickup access. Boats aren't shipped.
How do I pay for car shipping?
You can pay by card, or pay the carrier by cash or certified check; Zelle and Venmo are also accepted. Confirm the payment method and timing before pickup, and keep the payment agreement with your shipment details so there are no surprises at handoff.
Do I need to be present at pickup?
A designated adult must be present at both pickup and delivery to inspect the car and sign the Bill of Lading. If you can't attend, name someone you trust in advance and make sure they can access the keys and review the vehicle with the driver.
