When scheduling the transport of your vehicle, you are
likely to hear companies make reference to Central Dispatch, “Central”, or what
is sometimes just referred to as “the board”. It is important for you- the
consumer, to understand the role Central Dispatch plays in making the transport
of your vehicle successful.
What is Central Dispatch?
Since 1999 Central Dispatch® has become an integral part in
the way Motor Movers Auto Transport connects with car carriers.
As your broker, I will list all of your relevant vehicle
information, including vehicle type and year, mileage that your car will be
traveling, and what you are offering on a cost- per- mile bases to a carrier on
the Central Dispatch site.
Carriers in turn rely on Central Dispatch and Motor Movers Auto Transport to build their loads and schedule their routes. They will select
their load capacity based on route, cost per mile and truck space.
How Central Dispatch facilitates the transport of your
vehicle
Central Dispatch is an important component in setting an
accurate quote to transport your vehicle. A cost per mile precedent can quickly
be referenced on Central Dispatch for your route and type of vehicle. A similar
offer will be made on your behalf by Motor Movers Auto Transport to the over
5,000 carriers in the United States.
Carriers will then contact our dispatch department to
request that your vehicle be part of their load capacity. Motor Movers Auto Transport will then begin the scheduling, conduct an insurance verification on
the carrier and begin communication with the carrier on your behalf.
Navigating effectively on Central Dispatch
It is important that the company you are working with has a
staff that can navigate effectively through the thousands of vehicles listed on
Central Dispatch. I will be able to reference Central Dispatch to accurately
quote a price to transport your vehicle. Central Dispatch has become the most
reliable resources to go to for a reference in real time of what the market
value is to transport your vehicle.
