Auto Shipper Recommendation
I need to get a car shipped from Virginnia to Long Beach CA and I was hoping that you guys could provide recommendations for auto transporters. I looking at open shipping as the car is not worth a tremendous amout.
Thanks, Kevin |

Kevin,
I used a company called United Road to ship a car from Colorado to Arizona. Economical and fast. I don't know if they service the eastern USA but check with them . They have an El Monte, CA office 1-800-359-3377 Good luck

That will be expensive. I'm curious if anyone has tried posting, e.g., Craigslist, to find someone making the trek who could/would drag a car with a rented trailer.

Try DAS, MIkeS just shipped my old car to him, and said it all turned out great.

Yorkie- Dependable Auto Shippers (DAS) did a great job for me. Their number is 800-826-1083 - Talk to Richard at X 5133. As info the rate they quoted me for CA to NC terminal to terminal - open carrier was $629. I went enclosed for more $$ and overall I was very pleased.

$629 is SUPER cheap from VA to CA. I would guess it to be more like $1000.

This was discussed just not too long ago. My experience with DAS was one ok, and one bad. Here's the link.
Again please ... Shipping / Transport companies?
