Keep the destination specific.
California is not a single delivery point. Los Angeles, San Diego, the Bay Area and smaller communities create different final legs. Provide the actual destination and receiving hours when asking for a quote.
Prepare a remote handover.
If you travel ahead of the car, name the person releasing it and explain where the keys and paperwork will be. Keep condition photos and written instructions available to everyone who needs them.
