Shipping a vehicle to The Oaks

Tell us the address and the gate you use. We give the association the carrier name, driver name and truck description ahead of time, confirm the arrival window with you, and keep the same point of contact from dispatch through delivery.

FAQ

The Oaks shipping questions

Can a car carrier get inside The Oaks?

Manned or coded gate. We register the carrier in advance where the association requires it, and stage the truck on the nearest arterial road when the interior streets cannot take a 75-foot rig.

Do you handle the gate paperwork?

Yes. We provide the carrier and driver details the association asks for, and we confirm the arrival window so security is expecting the truck.

Open or enclosed for this address?

Enclosed is the standard for exotic, classic and high-value vehicles, or when the car will sit for the season. Open is the practical choice for daily drivers.
