Auto Transport companies

09m3power · 04-23-2015, 07:14 PM

Hi everyone,

I am moving from one state to another state and was thinking of using this auto transport company called Auto Transport 123.

I was wondering if anyone here have used them or knew anyone that had used them and whats your experience like.

thank you all in advance.

Intercity Lines is the most consistently recommended shipper when this question comes up, which it does often FYI. Might be worth searching "shipping companies site:m3post.com" in Google.

I used DAS from New Orleans to Seattle and was happy with the result. Price was right but took a little longer than expected.

i used http://gt-ms.com to get my m3 from from NJ to OR, it was really easy and was delivered in 4 days to me

Shop around. When I posted a request for a quote for a 500 mi open carrier drop, I got prices ranging from the low 300's to 700's. Most transport companies pretty much use the same set of truckers and loaders, so don't expect someone who is charging you a premium to be handling your car with velvet gloves, and a red carpet.
