How to Book RV, Boat, or Trailer Transport
AKAT makes it easy and affordable to book transport and safely move your RV, boat, or other types of trailer-mounted cargo from one city to another, nationwide (lower 48).
Start by requesting a free quote by phone (call 352-472-3343), or via the free quote form on our website. The quote will be emailed to you in one to two business days. Friendly trained dispatchers are available 8-5 EST Mon-Fri and Saturday 9-3 to answer questions and may call or email you to collect any details that haven’t been provided yet.
What We Need to Provide a Transport Quote
- The type of transport you desire:
- RV- 5th wheel or travel trailer
- Boat on a trailer
- Other cargo on a trailer
- Horse Trailer
- Approximate length of the loaded trailer
- Pickup and destination cities and state(s). Zip code is not necessary for a quote, but if you have the zip codes we can provide the most accurate initial quote.
- Your name and email address (phone optional)
- type of hitch – either 5h wheel or bumper pull (see options)
How to Accept a Transport Quote
You can accept an AKAT quote by replying “I accept this quote” to the quote email, or you can call us to accept the quote. If we need more information than what you have provided so far, we’ll collect it by phone or email. Accepting our quote does not obligate you to use our service. We will have a transport agreement after you pay a deposit and electronically sign our release form. See ‘final steps’ below.
Ask Us to Beat a Competitor’s Transport Quote
If you received a lower quote from another company, please email it to us and we will try to beat it. If you choose to compare prices, please be wary of prices much lower than ours — it could be a scam or uninsured driver. Most likely, a cheap transport offer is from an illegal uninsured solo driver. Anyone can claim to have commercial insurance. Ask for documentation. At AKAT Inc. we provide you with carrier’s insurance documentation upon request.
Also, beware of requests for a hefty down payment — it may be a SCAM where the “transporter” disappears after you pay the deposit. AKAT only requires a modest down payment to confirm transport.
Final Steps to Arrange Transport
Once we have the required initial details and you have accepted our transport quote, you will receive a confirmation email with a unique link. The link will take you to a secure private page on our website to complete a short form which authorizes us to move your RV or trailer, and also collects some final details for the transport. See FAQs: Release Form for details. At this time we will also collect a deposit by phone. We will collect the remaining balance on the day your scheduled transport begins. See FAQs: Payments for more details.
At the conclusion of the transport, you or your agent, if so arranged, will sign a form to confirm safe receipt of your RV or trailer. Please see Bill of Lading for more details.
