FedEx Car Transport
FedEx is a well known company in the delivery business and one of the most recognizable corporate names in America. FedEx car transport is not quite as well known a division as the delivery service, but it shares the company’s high standards.
FedEx is a major corporation that grew from an air freight delivery service known as Federal Express in the 1970’s. The company is officially known as FedEx today and has diversified to be one of the major American corporations and along with UPS is known as a leader and major competitor of the postal service in the package delivery industry. The company is well known also because of extensive advertisement and the sponsorship of professional racing teams. Although FedEx Car Transport is not as well known as other divisions of the corporation, it shares the high standards of the parent company.
FedEx Car Transport has been operating from around 1970 itself and has established itself as a high class leader of the auto transport industry. They offer three basic services. The basic transport service is called Unmodified Passenger Services. This is for stock automobiles that are 16 feet or less in length. The automobiles must be in operating condition. This means they must be able to be started with a key, can brake, roll freely, and steer.
The Large or Modified Vehicle service is for vehicles longer than 16 feet in length. This would include most SUV’s, Vans, and pick-up trucks. The service is also used for vehicles that do not meet the operating requirements for the unmodified classification. This includes vehicles that are unable to start or have other mechanical faults.
The real gem of the FedEx Car Transport service is the Custom Critical Passport Auto Transport Service. The Custom Critical Passport concept for FedEx is used for special and priority shipments of many types. The Auto Transport division specializes in the transport of expensive automobiles and classic cars. The service features special enclosed car carriers to ensure maximum safety for these valuable vehicles.
Quotes for the various services are available on the FedEx Auto Transport website as well as by phone. The reputation and reliability of the parent corporation makes it an example for the industry. FedEx Car Transport services have managed to live up to this high reputation. They have set a high standard for the industry and are one of the factors that keep the auto transport industry concerned with image and with customer service.
