Estimated shipping time Enid, OK to east coast ?
Is there somebody who know about estimated time of time it take to ship car after you ordered shipping. I bought a Corvette C6 in Enid Oklahoma and the car will be shipped to the eastcoast for shipping to Europe, I dont know what port it will be sent to. The company that I use for shipping ordered freight to Norway 25 August and the wessel Tortugas has ETD 18 September to Europe. This was 3 weeks so I dont see any problems with that, but car still sists in garage in Oklahoma and is not picked up with carrier. So on Monday its only one week to the ship sails and car is still in garage in Enid. Does anybody think the carrier that I use has everything under control , I think the time is running very fast now for departure with that ship. Anybody with shipping experience who can answer me on this ?

You have shipped cars to Norway using this transport co. to get the cars to the port, right? If that's so, you have experience with them. Have they ever let you down? Did you tell them the date of departure of the ship, the time, the place, etc.? If they know, they understand they have to make it by that date---most likely a day or so before.
When you called, did you leave a message with all the information incl. the date the ship is sailing and from where? I'd say Monday is going to be your day to get things squared away! Good luck.

They do all the work with shipping and export. I just give the the adress to pick up car. I have used them before with good results. All the papers are ok , but the car is not picked up. so I must call Monday. Worst case scenario is other ship, but when you have purchased new car you want it as soon as possible.

I now know that the vehicle carrier Tortugas has to departure from Charleston to Europe 18 September. I see its bad weather forecast in the area an trough the country early next week but hope they who transport the car can reach the destination in Charleston safe before the ship sails the 18th.
