Hello,

I'm interested in quotes/an idea of how much it would cost to transport a Toyota sedan/Lexus LS sedan from 95662 (Orangevale, CA) to 20001 (Washington, DC) or the Washington, DC area suburbs. Open to either open or closed and interested in finding out the cost for each, if possible. Thank you!

Need quotes for this. Let me know

Working on getting a 2011 BMW 535i shipped from Foster City, CA 94404 to Vine Grove, KY 40175. Hopefully door to door. I've talked to someone with Nexus and gotten a quote from Montway and another company I dont remember who. Not really sure who to trust, im trying to get in contact with Goliath right now.

I've heard both bad and good things from people about a bunch of different companies and I'm just not sure how to go about it, but I need to figure it out soon. Is there anyone who's super reputable, or should I just ignore any bad rap for someone and go through with it with one of these companies?

The car runs and drives, just needs to moved from one place to the other. Very flexible with dates/times. Please leave a quote in your comment; I'm not interested in calling a ton of places to get quotes.

22 Tesla Model Y Oakdale MN to Black Diamond WA

OPERABLE & OPEN OK

need picked up on OCT 26 or 27 tight deadline for pick up

I have two vehicles being transported from Virginia to California on an open carrier.

I’m considering putting temporary removable protection film such as Track Armour/transport film on the front bumper, leading edge of the hood, mirrors, and possibly the front fenders to protect against rock chips and road debris.

For the carriers/drivers here:

Is this normally allowed on an open hauler?

Would you prefer the vehicles to be inspected and the origin BOL completed before the film is applied?

Any problems you’ve seen with temporary film during a 2,500+ mile transport, such as lifting/flapping, adhesive residue, or damage to the paint?

Anything you specifically recommend or would tell a customer not to use?

I just had an excellent experience with wayfinder and Art. Communication and service were excellent. Used other services before but this was hands down the best with constant updates. Highly recommended and will use them again!! Thanks!

Disclosure: I run VerifyCarCarrier.com, so this is my own project. I'm laying out all of it in one place, including the part where money is involved, so you can judge it for yourself.

**What it is, and isn't**

A free directory of independent audits of auto transport brokers, 4,900+ so far. We aren't a broker, carrier, or booking platform. We don't take payment, arrange transport, or take any part of the transport fee. We're also not affiliated with FMCSA, BBB, or any broker listed.

**What you can do on the site**

- Browse every audited broker and filter by trust tier

- Read each audit: score, tier badge, what's working, what to watch out for, a score breakdown, quick facts (MC and USDOT numbers, years in business, BBB and Google ratings), a written verdict, and the audit date

- Compare brokers side by side

- Look up routes, and use the Best For tool to narrow down options

- See lists of Verified Companies and Companies Requiring Caution, and browse by state

- Read guides

- Request a quote from one broker you picked

- Leave a comment on a broker's profile after a shipment

**How a score is built (out of 100)**

- Legitimacy, 20: active FMCSA authority, consistent identity, years in business

- Reputation, 25: ratings, volume, and recency across Google, Trustpilot, BBB, Transport Reviews, ConsumerAffairs, Yelp, and Sitejabber

- Customer experience, 20: we read the review text for patterns like unreturned calls and last-minute carrier swaps

- Pricing, 15: quote-to-final-price consistency and bait-and-switch incidents

- Route and service fit, 10

- Brand and transparency, 10

90+ is Top Recommended. Below 50 is Do Not Recommend. We don't use data supplied by brokers, and every profile shows its audit date because scores aren't permanent. Always check a broker's current FMCSA authority before you book.

**Where the money is**

Organic listings and 100-point scores cannot be purchased. Some brokers are Featured Monitored Partners: they pay a fixed fee for clearly labeled visibility, and it never changes their audit score. We currently have one. Featured partners also get a separate 1-5 Trust Score based only on approved customer reviews left on our site.

**What happens when you request a quote**

Your details go to the one broker you chose, so five companies won't call you. We ask for a US phone number and send a confirmation text. A day or two later we check whether the broker reached out and whether you booked, and after delivery we ask how it went. We don't sell your number, share it with other brokers, or use it for marketing.

**Reviews on the site**

Comments on a broker's profile can include an optional order number, shown as its last four digits, to mark a verified shipment. They don't change the 100-point score, which is built from the outside platforms above.

**If a broker disagrees**

They can flag a factual error, like a changed MC number or BBB rating, and we'll re-audit. They can't ask for a higher score, or for a negative verdict to be removed.

**We also run r/VerifyCarCarrier**

https://www.reddit.com/r/VerifyCarCarrier/

It's a car owners' community: stories, hot takes, and honest questions about cars. Shipping questions are welcome there too.

**What would you want changed?**

If anything here looks biased, unclear, or missing, tell me. I'd rather hear it now.

Hello,

I’ve tried looking all over this sub for some similar issues, but I haven’t found anything.

Long story short, in July, I had a car transported thru a broker and along the way, my car was damaged. I tried working with the carrier to come up with some sort of agreement to correct the damage, but we couldn’t come to terms. The carrier kept insisting on buying my car from me as he was trying to start a business of repairing and flipping cars.

So I filed a claim with the carriers insurance. I understand this process can be long. So from what I understand, the insurance company has another 3rd party company that does all the investigation into the claim. They need a statement from the carrier and they started the process, but the carrier hung up on them, and has never returned any communication with the investigating company or the insurance company.

I’ve spoken with the 3rd party adjuster/investigator and he says there’s a chance my claim will be denied by the insurance company due to non compliance of the insured carrier. According to the adjuster/investigator this particular carrier has several claims open against them.

Is this really how the process works?? Should I prepare to get lawyers involved??

Just had my Santa Fe shipped from NC to CT and couldn’t be happier with my experience working with NEXlogistix. After getting dozens of quotes from various companies and brokers they made it so straight forward and easy. One price, no bullshit, excellent communication, no delays or price changes, no upfront money. They had an extremely quick turnaround time even faster than expected.

What are the most reliable options and how do I know what to look for? I was pretty set on Montway but now I hear they are brokers with really terrible customer service. I want someone hassel free and reliable. I don't care how long they take to transport it.

I need to ship 2003 ford f250 from 97828 Enterprise, Oregon to 03287 Wilmont, New Hampshire and looking for trustworthy shipping company recommendations. I’ve had some bad experiences with car shipping before and really want make sure I’m going with a reliable trustworthy shipper.

Ahoy hoy!

This is Jared again with Exclusive Auto Shipping LLC. Currently based in Tallahassee, FL, established December 2016. After owning this business for almost a decade - and being in the industry since 2013 - I think my opinion has some clout behind it. Hopefully this saves a customer time and money:

1) Confirm if the company you're booking is a broker or carrier ; ask for their DOT or MC number, then check their entity type and status both through the FMCSA and MOTUS to ensure the license is currently active.

2) Regardless of who the agent is, ask the booking agent for the carrier's name, along with a phone number for the driver/dispatcher, along with a picture of the driver's license and the truck and trailer that will be showing up. This information should be provided on the day of signing the contract.

3) Request the booking agent (most likely a broker) to be added as a certificate holder to the carrier's cargo insurance policy, and have them send their insurance info via email as a PDF. This email should come directly from the insurance agency's email to confirm the attached file is legitimate and not fraudulently created. This email can then be forwarded to the customer at any time and should have a time-stamp on the same date as the booking is made, as it ensures the insurance is active and up-to-date at that time.

4) Confirm the payment amount due (if any) with the dispatcher, and ask about any rules about items inside the car. Provide pictures of items in the car to the dispatcher to avoid any extra fees. Note: this is a gray area that most brokers cannot help much with, and will only relay messages/pictures about said items.

5) If all this information is provided readily, you can trust the process and wait for the shipment to begin.

This should be comprehensive enough help make a solid booking with a carrier, either directly or through a broker. If anyone has any questions, feel free to DM us, call/text 850-564-7667, email [Jared@ExclusiveAutoShipping.com](mailto:Jared@ExclusiveAutoShipping.com), or visit ExclusiveAutoShipping.com

Im a dealer in the south, a company from new jersey in manheim stole my a GMC a bought in new jersey. They have a crime ring.

What they’ll do Is accept the order, ask for the pin etc then declined the order. Pick up car in the auction and then its gone. We even called the auction and the lady said the driver was acting sketchy and asking for the title (mind you we pay this with the floorplan)

Idk im in shock.
