Getting a car shipped.

[440RUSH]

Hi guys. I'm looking for a transporter to ship a car from Florida to Indiana around the first of July. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Any names of reputable carriers or share experiences you've had. Or names of carriers to avoid. Thanks for any advice.

I have shipped two cars from the mid west to Florida. I do not recall the first one as it was arranged by the dealer I purchased the car from. The second time, I used Reliable. Both transporters did an excellent job. The cars were shipped in enclosed trailers and arrived on time with no damage. If I need to do it again, I would use Reliable again without giving it a second thought.

I used Passport transport and would again in a heartbeat
Took less than a week once picked up in Cincinatti OH to Tucson Az door to door

FYI, its kinda scary to see it when it rolls out on to the door to unload

Believe me. To say My heart was racing is an understatement

Especially since I had just blown my entire budget ( and then some ) on a car I never in my wildest dreams thought I would have a chance to own. I helped build this car with the previous owner. Whom is a very good friend of mine . And lusted for it for over 20 years.

Then there's the video of the Vette dropping off the back a couple weeks ago!
I used Reliable to ship 2 vehicles enclosed, I would recommend them again, last year. I used someone 20+ years ago and forget who it was, but they were good too. Good Luck

I used Horseless Carriage Transport in 2015 when I shipped my 70 Road Runner from California to PA.

When my car arrived home, there was a rusty, beat up old VW bug needing restoration behind my car that needed to be moved out to get my car out. The driver treated that beat up old VW like it was gold - he really respected the car as he moved it. So I believe he treated my car like that too when I wasn't around, and this made me happy. My car arrived in perfect condition.

I would use them again.
