Default Trustworthy Transportation Company?

Wow, I put in an internet request for quotes from transportation companies to transport a car from TX to CA.

What a wild bunch of responses! from requesting deposits to talking trash on other companies. Can anyone recommend a transportation company? Not necessarily lookin for the cheapest but want the car taken care of. Thanks Ryan

I used intercity lines, Hartford to Tucson. A little pricey but very professional.

All have shipped cross country for me, east to west, north to south and vice versa. These are currently the only three I use exclusively for all of my auto moves.

I have used InterCity Lines on three moves, very professional. Would not hesitate in using them again. Their web site has an on-line cost calculator:

I have used Rich twice. Great experience. I wouldn't use DAS again...they moved my Merc CLK55 and all the sudden my exhaust valve was "bent"

Now that you mention it, he was talking about the possibility last June when he moved me to Atlanta. That is a shame. Great service and a great guy.

I used DAS and they sucked donkey balls. Whoever you decide to use pay the extra for an enclosed carrier! www.transportreviews.com is a good site for carrier reviews.
