Roadside inspections: auto transporters near Caldwell
5 of the 10 auto transporters listed here had at least one roadside inspection in the 24 months to September 13, 2026, 32 inspections in all. Inspectors put the vehicle out of service in 6 of 12 vehicle inspections (50.0%), above the 32.4% for listed auto transporters nationally. Drivers were put out of service in 3 of 32 driver inspections (9.4%, against 10.3%).

Pickup in Caldwell and checking the carrier
A loaded car hauler is about 75 feet long, so on narrow Caldwell streets the driver may ask to meet at a wide lot; the 1 carrier based here will know which ones work. If the quote comes from a broker, ask which carrier's truck will come and open that USDOT number before pickup. Preparing the car and how car shipping is priced cover the rest.

Usually as close as a 75-foot rig can legally and physically get. On narrow residential streets, in HOAs that bar commercial trucks, or where overhead lines are low, the driver will ask to meet at a wide lot nearby. Agree the meeting point when you book, not when the truck is idling.
