See our Vehicle Shipping Tips for detailed preparation guidance. For Lubbock shipments, we recommend removing toll passes, fragile items, and any interior or exterior accessories that could shift during transit across West Texas highways. Have a key ready for your carrier, and note that our digital vehicle inspection process will document your car's condition before pickup, so you'll have a clear record from the start.

Yes, your vehicle is fully insured when shipping to or from Lubbock. All carriers in our network are FMCSA-licensed and required to carry a minimum of $1,000,000 in liability insurance and $100,000 in cargo insurance. We verify each carrier's insurance policy is valid and in good standing before your shipment departs, giving you peace of mind throughout your transport to the Lubbock area.

The sooner, the better. We recommend scheduling your Lubbock pickup at least two weeks in advance, though posting your shipment earlier is ideal—especially given Lubbock's location in the Texas Panhandle. Early scheduling allows carriers to bundle your vehicle with others heading through the region, which improves availability and reduces costs. Our 95% carrier securement rate means you'll get assignment-ready quotes that carriers actually accept, even with tight timelines.

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 essential protection for high-value vehicles like classics or custom paint jobs from road debris and Lubbock's dust storms. Given the West Texas climate, enclosed transport is particularly valuable for protecting your vehicle during the journey to or from the South Plains. If you're shipping a standard vehicle, open transport is a reliable, cost-effective option with our FMCSA-licensed carriers and full insurance coverage.

Yes, we offer door-to-door auto transport service in Lubbock. At booking, simply provide your preferred pickup and delivery addresses within or around Lubbock, and our FMCSA-licensed carrier will work to accommodate your locations. If any transportation restrictions or safety concerns arise in the Lubbock area, your carrier will collaborate with you to arrange an alternative nearby location, such as a local gas station or parking lot, ensuring your vehicle gets where it needs to go.

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.
