See our Vehicle Shipping Tips for detailed preparation guidance. For Allentown shipments, you'll want to remove any toll passes (particularly for Pennsylvania Turnpike), secure a vehicle key for your carrier, and remove fragile items and exterior accessories that could shift during transit. Our AI-verified inspection process will document your vehicle's condition before pickup, so proper preparation helps ensure a smooth handoff in the Allentown area.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured when shipping to or from Allentown. All of our FMCSA-licensed carriers are required to maintain a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance. We verify that each carrier's insurance policy is valid and in good standing throughout your shipment, giving you peace of mind whether you're shipping from Allentown's industrial corridor or to the area.

The sooner, the better. We recommend scheduling your Allentown pickup at least two weeks in advance, though posting your shipment as soon as possible helps our carriers bundle your vehicle with others in the Lehigh Valley area for better efficiency. With our 95% successful carrier securement rate, early booking gives us more flexibility to match you with the right carrier within your requested timeframe.

We accept all forms of payment. We can arrange credit cards or arrange for you to pay the carrier directly through cash/certified check. We even accept payment via Cash/Zelle/Venmo.

Your shipment with SAKAEM includes up to 100 lbs of personal items or household goods stored in the trunk area or secured below the window line. If your shipment includes ocean transit (Hawaii shipments), your vehicle must be emptied of all items. SAKAEM and your assigned carrier are not responsible for personal items left inside your vehicle. See our Auto Transport Process Article for more details.

A designated (adult) must be present at pickup and delivery. This designated person plays an important role in the shipping process including documenting the state of the vehicle and signing the Bill of Lading, which acts as a receipt of the vehicle's condition.

Enclosed transport costs at least 50% more than open trailers, but provides superior protection for high-value vehicles like classics or custom-painted cars—especially important in Allentown's variable weather and industrial corridors where road debris is a concern. Open transport is ideal for standard vehicles and budget-conscious moves in the Lehigh Valley area. At Sakaem Logistics, our AI-verified pricing ensures you get transparent quotes upfront, so you can confidently choose the option that matches your vehicle's value and your budget.

Yes, we offer door-to-door auto transport service in Allentown and throughout the Lehigh Valley. At booking, simply provide your preferred pickup and delivery addresses in or around Allentown, and our assignment-ready carriers will pick up and deliver your vehicle directly to those locations whenever possible. If any transportation restrictions or safety challenges arise, your dedicated carrier will work with you to arrange an alternative nearby location, such as a local gas station or parking lot.

We transport sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, electric vehicles, vans and motorcycles across all 48 continental states + Hawaii. Our services even provide shipment for golf carts, ATVs, or RVs. We can ship vehicles that don't run so long as the vehicle can roll, brake, and steer, and that you can provide the carrier with a key to the vehicle. The only exception is boats, which we do not transport.
