How to Choose Reliable Film Location Car Transport

Time is money on any film or photographic shoot and if you need vehicles on location you can’t afford to take chances when arranging vehicle transportation. The stunt cars, the hero’s motorbike, and the valuable vintage car all need to be in the right place, at the right time, and ready for instant action.

Who can you trust to get the job done smoothly and efficiently from collection to delivery? When you begin looking for a professional vehicle transport company for TV programmes, films, promotional videos or photo shoots, here are some things you need to check:

Experience

Does the company offer specialist car transport support for media agencies based on its knowledge of the industry? Does it have extensive experience of film shoot car transport gained through working on all types of locations?

Covered car transporters

For maximum safety and security, and to ensure vehicles are delivered in pristine condition, the company must use fully enclosed vehicle transport.

Knowledgeable staff

Does the company just employ drivers – or professional, experienced, adaptable drivers who take a real pride in their work? Can they be relied on to be discreet when working with prototypes and prestige vehicles?

A ‘Can do’ attitude

Can the company arrange short notice vehicle transport throughout UK & Europe? Is it available 24/7? Can it deal with multiple vehicle transport? Does it provide an advisory service and technical help if needed? If you have a problem, will the staff do their best to solve it?

Essential extras

Does the company offer more than a basic vehicle collection and delivery service? Does it also have its own secure storage facilities? Are the staff willing and able to give on-site assistance with film, TV, and photo shoots? Will they undertake on-site valeting if necessary?

To ensure the success of your project it’s vital to get all the details right. Using a specialist covered car transportation company makes it easy to hand over at least some of the responsibility to the experts.
