- On a standard order, Ford's own transportation network delivers the finished vehicle to the dealer or customer. Baier is not part of that network.
- Ford Pro Ship Through sends the built vehicle to an upfitter near the factory, then back to the producing plant to rejoin Ford's transportation network for delivery. Ford notes extra freight fees may apply and that carrier height and weight limits can restrict it.
- With Ford Pro Drop Ship, the vehicle goes to the upfitter named by its drop-ship code, and Ford tells the customer to work with the upfitter to arrange delivery. That final move, from the upfitter or the delivering dealer to you, is where Baier comes in.
- In 2014 Ford said high-roof Transits headed to dealers within about 500 miles of Claycomo would move by truck and longer trips by rail. Ford has not published a newer statement for this plant.
Pickup Notes
- Hours, gate rules and release paperwork depend on the dealer or upfitter that hands over the vehicle, and the manufacturer does not publish them for this plant. Confirm them with the releasing site and pass them to dispatch when you book.
- Get a written release from the dealer or upfitter: the contact who will hand over the unit, the VIN or stock number, and the hours their lot is open.
- Ask whether the title document for a new vehicle (the Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin) travels with the vehicle or separately, and tell dispatch which.
- At pickup the driver and the releasing party inspect the vehicle and sign the bill of lading; keep your copy. Someone 18 or older signs again at delivery.
- Racks, bins, ladder racks and high roofs change a van's height. Give dispatch the final height and length; a unit that no longer fits a standard open carrier position moves to a commercial quote.
