Help: Recommend Car Shipping Service?
 

Can anyone recommend a car shipping company? I'm shipping my BRZ from WI to Los Angeles, hoping for something enclosed.

Thanks in Advance!

buy ticket to WI, drive back :D

I see these guys a lot:

I've had some really good service from Dependable Auto Shippers, and one really bad shipment. I think they take better care of you if you pony up for enclosed transport; otherwise, you're just some plebe who needs his junk moved.

I too have had a few good experience with Dependable Auto Shippers. And I agree with your statement above that paying more for enclosed service probably gets better service too. Kinda like UPS Ground versus Overnight.

Never used them, but I see Horseless Carriage a lot. They cater to enthusiast cars.

Thanks everybody!!

Cheap plane ticket(dealer might even pick you up from airport), gas money, consumables money, one night at a Motel 6.

That will probably cost less than shipping the car...and you get to break it in quickly.

2200 miles to LA. I figured I could do 800 a day, so it would still probably be three days -- and with the CEL issues floating around I didn't risk being stuck in the middle of some cornhuskers in Nebraska. Plus -- snow in Colorado -- knowing my luck I'd be a rock magnet before the clear bra went on.

I did think about it though, delivery is gonna take at least two weeks now.

I guess I'll just have to take a long road trip this summer instead. :party0030:

I didn't realize it was THAT far...not sure I'd want to drive that much either. I've done almost exactly half that and had fun, but doubling it would be a chore.

I've used " Exotic Car Transport " a few times with very good success and rates. Although they are out of Orlando, Florida, they cover the nation. 800-766-8797

FYI: Sometimes it is worth it to pay a bit more to have top quality. Enclosed transport is the way to go for a new car in my opinion.

I have used a broker twice - and recommended him to a few friends who used him - there are a lot of shady characters in the business. This guy is legit, honest, responsive. He wasn't the cheapest, but by only $50 or so when I compared it.

Tell him Steven who used to have the Contour SVT sent you.

Check Bidux website, I had my cars shipped with this company twice from New Jersey to Texas. I dont remember exactly how much it cost me but I can say that their prices are relatively low.

Throwing in another good carrier for reference.
