Car Shipping

Get ballpark price estimates from multiple auto transport providers for shipping a vehicle between two locations. Only pass fields the user has actually provided or confirmed — leave others unset rather than guessing, and if this tool returns status='missing_info', ask the user only for the fields listed in missing_fields.

get_shipping_estimate

Return factual educational guidance about a car-shipping topic (open vs enclosed transport, typical transit times, price factors, vehicle prep, EV transport, classic/exotic vehicle transport, or non-running vehicles). Use this to answer questions, not to replace an estimate when the user clearly wants pricing.

get_car_shipping_guidance

Return the attributed link where the user can see a live quote or complete booking on a provider's own site. Always tell the user this link may include a tracked affiliate id and that the app may earn a commission at no extra cost to them, before sharing it.

get_provider_booking_link

Send the user's shipment details and contact info to a specific provider so that provider (or a partner carrier) follows up with a firm, bookable quote. Only call this after the user has explicitly agreed to share their contact info with that named provider — never call it just because a quote was shown.
