Cost to ship a car?
My Grandfather is selling/giving me his 1991 Limited Edition Mazda Miata.
Anyway, I need to figure out how to get it from the Mountains of South Carolina to Tacoma, WA. Anyone have a carrier they recommend? How mush should I be planning on spending? My other option is to fly out there, which I am planning on doing that anyway, and then driving it back. Advice? |

Fly out there and drive it back. Be one hell of an adventure.

DAS is a good company to ship with. its cheaper if you ship from their port to port, instead of two home addresses.

try and find a truck that's already driving through your destinations, and ask if you can put your car on with a fee

Cannonball Run style. Do it. Dash cam the whole thing. Time lapse it down into a 5-7min video. Would watch.

Dependable auto shippers. I've used them every time.
