***Step 1: Fill out the online Quick Quote Form***
This provides us some basic information about your
shipment. Upon submitting your information, you will be contacted by a customer service representative to confirm your request.
This online submission process was designed to make the shipping process easier for you, our valued customer.
- Required items upon delivery of your vehicle.
- Keys - You must provide Horizon Lines with keys to the ignition, trunk, gas
cap and any locked compartment. Please have copies of your keys made and leave
only the copies (keep your original set of keys) after you have checked to ensure
that the copies fit all devices/compartments.
- Original Vehicle Registration and Title - Horizon Lines will make copies
and return the original documents to you immediately.
- Creditor/Lessor notarized statement - If your vehicle is
currently financed/leased, bring a notarized statement from your
creditor/lessor that the creditor/lessor is aware your vehicle is
being shipped.
- Non-Owner of vehicle – If the person shipping/receiving the vehicle is
other than the owner, Horizon Lines requires a notarized letter of authorization from the
owner.
- Photo ID – In order to pick up the car, you (or anyone
you designate) must furnish a photo ID.
- For Vehicles shipped from Hawaii - If you are shipping your vehicle from Hawaii and
there is co-ownership of the vehicle, both owners must be present when
vehicle is delivered to Horizon Lines. If only one owner is present, a
notarized letter is required from the absent co-owner authorizing the
shipment.
- Delayed Shipments -
All vehicles are subject to delayed shipment in the event of a full ship environment and could be assigned to a ship
leaving later than the requested sailing date
- Prepare your vehicle for shipment
- Winter Protection - If you are shipping your vehicle
to/from Alaska, radiators and batteries must be adequately
protected from freezing.
- Don’t Fill Your Tank - Since gasoline is flammable, we
require that your tank be no more than one-fourth full. Leave
only enough gas in your tank to drive to a service station at
destination. Vehicles with propane tanks require special
handling — contact customer service (in the U.S.
and Canada) for details.
- Don’t Pack Anything in Your Vehicle - No personal items,
luggage or boxes may be shipped inside the passenger area or
trunk. An infant car seat and spare tire with jack are considered
to be integral parts of the vehicle, so they may be included. You
will be asked to remove anything that is not permanently mounted
or bolted to the vehicle.
- Don’t Pack Firearms or Fire Extinguishers.
No firearms, ammunition of any type or fire extinguishers may
be shipped in a vehicle.
- Disconnect Alarm Systems.
Vehicle alarm systems must be disconnected before a vehicle may
be shipped.
- No Disabled Vehicles.
Your vehicle must be in safe operating condition with inflated
tires, fully operational brakes, transmission and steering.
All vehicles will be inspected upon delivery to Horizon Lines. If a
vehicle is not in safe operating condition, it will not be accepted
for shipment.
- Required Ground Clearance.
All vehicles must have six
inches of ground clearance in order to be shipped.
