This document outlines how we collect and use information, your rights, our service limitations, and legal disclaimers intended to protect both you and Curate Auto Transport.
1. Terms & Conditions of Service
1.1. Service Overview
Curate Auto Transport acts as a licensed auto transport broker, arranging vehicle shipping services between customers and registered motor carriers. We do not own trucks or directly transport vehicles; instead, we facilitate connections between shippers and carriers on behalf of our clients.
1.2. Quotes and Pricing
All quotes provided by Curate Auto Transport — whether through our website, phone, or email — are valid for 14 days (two weeks) from the date of issuance.
Quotes are based on current carrier rates, fuel prices, seasonality, and route availability.
Expired quotes are subject to re-evaluation and may result in a price adjustment.
Quotes are not binding until a transport order has been confirmed in writing and a deposit (if required) has been received.
1.3. Payment Terms
Payment terms will be specified at the time of booking. Payments may be made via credit card, debit card, or other accepted forms of payment. Certain deposits may be non-refundable once a carrier has been dispatched.
1.4. Customer Responsibilities
Customers are responsible for:
Providing accurate pickup and delivery information.
Ensuring the vehicle is operable (unless explicitly booked as inoperable).
Removing all personal belongings not covered under transport insurance.
Being available (or designating an agent) at pickup and delivery locations.
1.5. Carrier Liability
Curate Auto Transport works only with licensed and insured motor carriers. While we facilitate and monitor the transport process, Curate Auto Transport is not liable for:
Delays due to weather, mechanical issues, or unforeseen events.
Damage incurred during transport (claims must be filed directly with the carrier).
Losses arising from inaccurate or incomplete information provided by the customer.
Each carrier assumes responsibility for vehicles while in transit under the terms of their insurance and Bill of Lading. Customers are encouraged to inspect the vehicle thoroughly at both pickup and delivery and document its condition.
1.6. Cancellation Policy
Cancellations must be made in writing. Refunds, if applicable, depend on the status of the transport process. Once a carrier has been assigned and dispatched, any applicable deposit may be forfeited.
1.7. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Curate Auto Transport shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with our services, including but not limited to lost profits, delays, or vehicle damages during carrier transit.
