Overview

Home delivery allows you to have your vehicle shipped directly to your address. You’ll see shipping costs and estimated delivery dates upfront, provide your delivery address and any special instructions, and Ekho will handle the rest. Once your delivery is scheduled, you’ll receive email updates with tracking information and delivery details.

​
How It Works

During checkout, select “Ship” from the delivery options. The address form will appear below - use the address search field to find and auto-fill your delivery address. Add any special delivery instructions (like gate codes or preferred delivery times), review the shipping costs and estimated delivery date, then click Continue to save your selection.

​
Select Home Delivery

During checkout, you’ll see delivery options including “Ship” and “Pick up.” The Ship option shows:
  • Shipping costs (e.g., “Shipping costs $1,250”)
  • Estimated delivery date (e.g., “est. delivery December 15, 2024”)
  • Or “Calculating…” if costs or dates aren’t available yet
Click the “Ship” option. The selection expands to show shipping details and the address form appears below. Estimated Delivery Date: The delivery date shown comes from your vehicle’s specific estimated delivery date (if available), average delivery time for your vehicle type (e.g., “2-3 weeks”), or shows “Calculating…” if no estimate is available yet. The date updates automatically as more information becomes available.
