I never had to ship a vehicle cross country before and it's hard to know what site online is trustworthy...I saw an ad for ship a car and spoke with Steve at Ship a Car and he helped me from start to finish and made it a very easy process. I would highly recommend ship a car.

The rep was very helpful. Pickup was Clarkston, Michigan on a Wednesday and the car wasn’t delivered until the following Saturday. It was in the email, very clear, that it would probably be delivered on that Friday, 10 days later. I thought it would come on a Monday or Tuesday. But when I looked at the email, it clearly said Friday. It ended up showing up on Saturday, which was fine. I was out of state, traveling for work. So, I didn’t need the vehicle, but I just had to schedule my friend to be there. Thankfully, she’s a very good friend. I saw the car on Monday. It was very dirty but that’s expected. It was dirty when it left, but it was way dirty. But it was in the same shape as it was when I left it with my sister for it to be picked up. I already recommended Ship A Car, Inc. to a coworker.

Used this company twice and each time shipped the car over 1200 miles without any problems or issues. Great company and extremely reliable. I used the customer service gentleman Steven each time and he was responsive and helpful throughout the process.

I needed to move my 67 Mustang to Northeast Georgia from Sarasota before Hurricane Irma. Meredith, at Ship a Car, was great at finding me an enclosed trailer to bring the car up here. It arrived in perfect condition.

I just want to say how I appreciated Reginald’s flexibility and professionalism. He’s great. He went out of his way to pick up my car Saturday as Sunday was impossible for me. He also has delivered early which helped. He called to keep me informed. Keep him at the top of your list. Thank you also for following up Monday and sticking to your quote. I wish I could say the same for the moving company. Thank you, Danny.

Paid $900 + to have my car shipped from Colorado to South Carolina. Helped the driver load my car onto a flat bed on 6/23/16, armed my alarm, and filled out paperwork, and paid the requested cash amount. The Car was to be delivered at my mother-in laws house on 6/25/16. The Driver stated that this would not be an issue. I told him that it wasn't a huge deal if it took another day or so. The 25th came around so I text and called the driver and asked him to please arrange a time with my mother-in law so she will be home to receive the car. He said that he would right away, she never received any call. The next day I called again to no response, so I called shipacar and had no response from them. Finally received a call telling me that the driver broke his leg and his boss would be delivering the car, still no exact date or time. A Couple of days go by and the car finally shows up at her house with not the original driver, not the boss, but a part time college kid. This was the early afternoon on 6/28/16, Three Days Late. The driver and the company didn't know that I have a gps system built into my alarm. My car basically stayed parked at the guys home for two days. So the late delivery isn't even the worst part about this who process. Keep in mind that we are driving across the country this whole time. We finally arrive in SC on 6/30/16. Checked out my car and everything looked ok. Went for a drive to go say hello to my parents and on my way there was some sort of smell in my car. Was tired that night so didn't pay much attention to it. The next morning I decide to check out my car a little further and in the rear door panel inside a plastic truck stop bag was one opened and drank Fosters Beer Can and one Full Can. So that is why my car smelled like crap, it was from an open beer can. I am absolutely livid at this point because not only did someone unlock my car when they had no need to enter my car, someone was drinking in my car. Who knows what else they did in my car? I call ship a car and tell them what has happened and they were astounded. They call the company that "They Hired" and ask their side. I then get a call from the company telling me that it was my beer or I let someone drive my car and they left it in there. I explain to him that no one has every borrowed my car and I certainly don't drink fosters or have every known anyone that does, or shops at a pilot truck stop. We go back and forth with the owner of the transport company and all he can say is that he is very sorry and he will fire the driver. I am pretty sure that they are related because when we said fosters beer he changed his tune. Anyway I see why they deal in cash because they are not willing to do any refund. No to Shipacar, I explain to them how if I were pulled over driving my car with that beer and open container in the car I would have probably lost my license. They were apologetic and said they will try to get money back from the transport company, which I thought this whole time was them. They got me in touch with a supervisor who only offered to refund me $100.00. After we paid them $300+ , I asked that if they can't return the money that the driver received the next best thing would to do the honorable thing and refund all the money they got on their end. They were absolutely unwilling to make things right and just eat it on their side of the deal. In the end I would say forgo hiring a middle man like this because they pretty much sell your transport to any looser that they have in their system. Just go and find a transport company that actually ships your car and save some money.

Gabriel was amazing. A total angel to deal with. But the driver you hired Ray sucked. My truck was 3 days late was never offered a discount. I will refer the company but will tell people if a guy names Ray is doing the driving he had one excuse after another for my truck being 3 days late. But Gabriel and this company did great. GET INFO ONYOUR DRIVER..

It was our first time working with Ship A Car INC a couple months back and everything went very smoothly. From the time that we first contacted them to the final delivery, they provided us with great customer service and communicated with us very well throughout the whole the process. There were no issues and if I had any questions they make it very easy to contact them. I would definitely use their services again if anything came up and would highly recommend them.

First time transporting my Car out of state. My experience from the start was a great experience. My representative Dana was very informative and knowledgeable. Dana made sure I was inform Thur out the transport and even reaching out afterwards to make sure everything went well. I could not have asked for better customer service/ care. I was very happy with the my transport of my Mercedes. The car made it safe on time and not one scratch! The rates was very competitive. I would highly recommend to anyone.

My experience with DANA was amazing. She was very profesional from the first phone call. I will give her 10/10 in keeping up with communication when I was concerned with the Truck driver and his lack of communication. Car was picked up on time and delivery was on time. (PA to CA move was done in 4 days). I did have some issue with the truck driver regarding pickup and delivery timings but Dana kept good communication with me. I have a new 2019 model of luxury car and it was delivered in very good condition. Please ask for Dana when you call.

We went with Ship-A-Car because we were unable to do cash to ship a car. ($900 was their quote.) I was to the understanding that there would be a $250 deposit charged when the contract was picked up and the remaining $650 would be charged upon delivery. WRONG! Ship-a-Car went with a company that does NOT do credit cards. Now we are having to work with the transport company and Ship-a-Car was able to basically take $250 from us just to do the same damned thing we could have done on our own if we had the cash. I will never use them again and will never recommend them.

I was disappointed to see some very low ratings on Yelp about this company. I spoke with Steve and a guy named Mike transported my 2 cars from California to New Orleans. My driver's name was Mike and he called me every day to let me know where he was in his transport. The cars arrived in pristine condition and very timely. I guess everyone's experience is different...but I got all-star treatment.

The car arrived today and I could not be happier with the shipping service (Sema Logistics). They were always there to answer my questions on the phone and the driver was the best.

I have used other companies before and yours is the best of all !

Really great service. Friendly and professional. Cody was a great help. I need a car shipped from Arkansas to Arizona as I was towing another car myself. Called up Ship a Car Inc. and they gave me a quote over the phone. Their quote was more expensive that the instant quotes the you get bombarded with, but they lay everything out for you over the phone and in contract. My car was very well taken care of. The driver kept in contact with me and delivered right on time. If i need a car shipped again, im using Ship a Car Inc. Thanks again guys.

Ship A Car is a really great service. I had them ship my late model Lexus LS 460 from Louisville, Kentucky to Portland, Oregon. They made me feel really comfortable with delivering my vehicle across that long distance. Thad was the name of the driver that helped deliver my vehicle to Portland, Oregon. He's a very nice guy. A "Man's man," so to speak, and really easy to relate to. He stayed in contact with me, and gave me several options of places to meet besides the Portland delivery point. In retrospect, I should have chosen a different meeting location to avoid rush hour traffic, but it all went well. There was only one slight issue. I think he parked the trailer under a large tree, and the tree dripped a bunch of pitch over the car. Luckily, it didn't scratch the paint. I took it to get cleaned, and the guy said it should be fixable by leaving the vehicle under the sun for a week or so. Other than that, everything worked out fine. Ship a Car provided a good service and a pretty decent price.

I'm in the process of trying to ship my car with these people and so far it's been a pretty bad experience. They buttered up my step dad so she chose them to ship my car and promised only good things but we have yet to experience them. Originally the lady on the phone told my dad Friday was the original pick up date so my husband was able to get the day off work, then she said next Wednesday. So my husband was able to get off work again to drive 3 hours and get my car, only to find out that the driver wouldn't be in the area until tomorrow. So now he's going to have to try to get off again, which isn't easy with his job. This all could have been solved if anyone answered their phones and told him it would be another day before anyone could make it but when my husband called they just rudely told him to contact the driver but the number they gave him just sent him to a phone line that didn't have a voicemail set up. They also gave him a fax number, but not a cell phone number even though there was room for one. Being on the other side of the country, the lack of contact from this company was concerning. I had to call to find anything out, neither them nor the driver they contract out to ship your car seems to care. I don't recommend, they've just been rude and don't really seen to care to help us.

Everything about the process of transporting my car with the people over at Ship A Car went according to plan and exactly as they said they would. The guy that came to pick up the car was right on time and very engaging. He took the time to tell me the plan for the delivery of the car and the time frame in which it would be delivered. The guy took great care in loading my car up which I really appreciated. The car ended up arriving at the destination before I did which the guy said it would and he was able to contact my daughter so that she was available for the delivery. The whole process was just so smooth and easy and went exactly as they said it would which makes me one happy and satisfied customer.

I would definitely use them again, and would recommend to anyone who needs a vehicle transported!

I loved how Yvonnes professionalism and hospitality made my experience amazing. Shipping a Rolls Royce from New York to Atlanta and then from Atlanta back to New York, I was nervous worried and very annoying with staying on top of it making sure the drivers were on time, professional, etc. Yvonne helped me anyway she could even after hours when it was VERY late, she picked up for me, and it made me feel VERY comfortable and confident in my choice by using her. She honestly made me feel like family. Cheesy I know lol, but it's true! AMAZING costumer service... I'm for sure returning and referring ;) TY YVONNE

The rep I worked with, Lawrence Knapp was very knowledgeable, helpful and customer service oriented. He answered all my questions, and went the extra mile to save me some money. I feel our car is in good hands. I liked the tips on how to get your car ready for shipment. Lawrence communicated well through phone, text and email. He walked me through the process of signing documents so that went smoothly. He was easygoing and friendly too! I recommend Ship A Car, Inc. I got two other comparable estimates and because of Lawrence, I went with Ship A Car. A friend referred us, as she had a good experience too.

Riding my motorcycle cross-country from Florida, up to Jasper Canada, and down to California put a hurting on my hands. I was looking to cut out the San Francisco section of our trip and have the bike shipped to Carson City NV. I needed the bike there in two weeks; by the end of September. Two major shippers said they could not get the bike there until October. Then I had the good fortune of connecting with Ship a Car Inc. Steve G. handled my request and said they could do it. I was a bit nervous as Steve took a couple days to arrange transport and call me. But he came through and got the bike transported quicker than I would have expected. Since we were already in San Francisco, I called the shop in Eureka CA where I had left the bike for pick-up. As Steve had said, the bike was transported in an enclosed truck. The shop told me the driver was very professional and took a long time to make sure my bike was loaded and secured properly. I then called the shop in Carson City where the bike was to be delivered. They told me the bike was already there, that the driver had taken great care with my bike, and that he seemed very professional. This was a very difficult time-frame to deal with. This was not a pre-scheduled transportation issue. It was a last-minute decision on my part. The location of the pick-up shop in Eureka CA was only an every two-week area for the two other shippers I had tried. Steve G. and Ship a Car Inc came through. They saved our vacation and I am grateful, extremely grateful for the professionalism displayed. I would use their service again... in a heartbeat.

I wish to wholeheartedly endorse Theo @ Shipacarinc for the way I have been treated as a first time customer. He has shown me knowledge of his job, and is also very good at customer service and communication. He has responded in a timely manner with courtesy and professionalism. I highly recommend Theo and his company's services for anyone seeking to transport a vehicle. One only has to read the horror stories on the Internet with other companies to make one nervous of the process. He has made me comfortable and confident of the outcome.

More information about our trusted vehicle transport services

Ship A Car: Our clients' most frequent questions

  • How much does it cost to ship a car?

    The cost of shipping a car is determined by a number of distinctive factors, including the distance that has to be traveled, the type of vehicle that is being transported, whether you opt for open or enclosed transport, and any additional services that may be required (for example, in-op vehicle transport, door-to-door delivery, or the time of year of transport). The most important factor that contributes to your overall car shipping rate is the distance traveled between the point of pickup and the delivery location.

  • How do I get a quote for shipping my vehicle?

    Get in touch with our auto transport coordinators at (866) 821-4555 or make use of our user-friendly online car shipping calculator to obtain the most accurate estimate possible for transporting your vehicle. It is essential that you provide your transport coordinator over the phone or fill out the calculator form with as much information as possible in order to guarantee that you receive an accurate estimate for the shipment of your vehicle.

  • Is my vehicle fully insured during the car transport process?

    From the moment a carrier picks up your vehicle until the moment it is delivered, you may have peace of mind knowing that your vehicle is totally insured by the carrier's insurance. In order to ensure that every car shipping carrier satisfies all of the Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations for coverage, we conduct a thorough process of screening them. The amount of coverage that your vehicle will receive is contingent upon the value of the vehicle, the trailer that is being used, and the carrier's insurance provider.

    Your cargo insurance coverage might range anywhere from $100,000 to a maximum of $150,000 if you use an open auto transport carrier to ship your vehicle. On the other hand, if you choose to go with an enclosed auto transport carrier option, which is something that we strongly advise you to do, you will be able to take advantage of significantly larger coverage amounts, which may range anywhere from $250,000 to even 3 million. Feel free to ask us for confirmation that the carriers that we have in our network have what is required for terms of insurance protection at any stage throughout this process, if you feel that it is essential to do so. We'd be more than happy to provide it upon request.

  • Car Shipping Insurance - Do I need Gap Coverage?

    While your vehicle is being loaded onto a truck, during the entirety of the process of transporting your vehicle and while it is being unloaded from the truck at its delivery location, it will be completely protected by the insurance of the carrier. This is a guarantee that is offered by all reputable auto shipping companies, including Ship A Car, Inc. Regrettably, when it comes to insurance, the majority of vehicle transport brokers will not warn you that there are sometimes exceptions that apply. You may find yourself in a scenario where you are required to rely on your own personal vehicle insurance if the insurance carried by a carrier does not pay for the damages that have been caused to your vehicle or vehicles. Take into consideration only those car transport companies that provide supplementary insurance alternatives, such as gap protection through the Othex Protection plan program. There should be no auto shipment that does not include it, and every car shipper ought to reevaluate any company that does not provide an option to purchase gap protection for shipping vehicles.

  • How do I prepare my car for shipping?

    In order to guarantee a smooth and risk-free car shipping experience, it is essential to get your vehicle ready for the trip. Make sure that you give it a thorough cleaning on the inside and the outside before handing it over to the auto carrier. By doing so, you will be able to take detailed photographs of its current condition for future reference in the event that any damages occur while it is being transported.

    In addition to that, you need to check the fluid levels, tire pressure, and battery charge of the vehicle. If you find yourself in a situation where you need to, you can use a portable charger to jump-start the car or even inflate the tires. Before the vehicle is picked up, you are required to remove any items that are loose from inside of it. Last but not least, make sure that the shipper is only given one key to your vehicle because this will ensure that no unauthorized individuals are able to access your vehicle while it is being transported.

  • How long does auto transport take?

    In order to determine the precise amount of time required to ship a vehicle, it is necessary to take into account the distance traveled, the route taken, and any stops that are required along the way. In general, however, the time it takes to transport a car can range anywhere from a few days to a few weeks; however, this time frame can change depending on a variety of factors, including the amount of traffic and the specific weather conditions. By working with Ship A Car, Inc., you will be provided with an accurate timeline for when your vehicle is expected to be picked up and delivered, allowing you to make appropriate preparations. After all, it’s our mission to ensure your auto is transported safely and quickly.

  • Are there any documents that are required in order to ship your vehicle? (e.g., license, ownership papers…)

    Absolutely not! Therefore, there is no need to worry about presenting your driver's license, title, registration, or insurance if the locations where the vehicle will be picked up and dropped off are located within the contiguous United States.

  • Does the cost of car shipping change based on gas prices?

    It is true that the cost of shipping a car can be impacted by the current price of gas. Due to the fact that carriers rely on fuel to travel from one location to another, the price of gasoline is an important factor for shipping companies. The price of gasoline can have a significant impact on the total cost of transporting your vehicle, and this influence can vary depending on the route that is taken as well as other factors.

  • Can I schedule car shipping if I do not have an exact address?

    Even though you do not have an exact address, it is still possible to schedule the shipping of your vehicle. We are aware that the circumstances may shift, and it is not always possible to know the precise address until things are getting closer to the date that the vehicle will be picked up or delivered. When you are speaking with our transport coordinators about scheduling car shipping, all you need to do is let us know what general area you are located in. We will then work with you to determine the most convenient location for either the pick-up or delivery of your vehicle.

  • Can I ship an oversized vehicle?

    To answer your question, Ship A Car, Inc. is able to transport oversized vehicles. We take great pride in providing specialized services for the transportation of large and heavy equipment, such as automobiles, trucks, boats, recreational vehicles, trailers, and other types of vehicles. We are able to handle these kinds of shipments with ease because we not only have the necessary experience and resources, but we also have additional insurance coverage options available for pieces of equipment that require it. In order for us to provide you with an accurate estimate for the shipping of your oversized vehicle, all you need to do is provide us with accurate information regarding the type of vehicle and its weight.

  • Is an enclosed trailer better than an open trailer when shipping a car?

    That is highly dependent on the vehicle that you are shipping. When compared to open trailers, enclosed trailers provide a higher level of protection and security. Therefore, if your vehicle is brand new, particularly valuable, or delicate, it is conceivable that an enclosed trailer is the more appropriate option. With that being said, open trailers are typically less expensive and simpler to book, which may make them a more suitable option for individuals who are looking for a straightforward and cost-effective automobile shipping service.

  • Do you ship classic and exotic cars?

    Yes, without a doubt! Additionally, Ship A Car, Inc. features a specialized shipping service for classic and exotic automobiles. Since we are aware that these automobiles require additional care and attention when it comes to transportation, we make it a point to provide the highest level of service that is humanly possible. This guarantees that your vehicle is handled in a manner that is both safe and secure at all times.

  • When it comes to car transport pick-up and delivery, is it necessary for someone to be present?

    A person who is at least 18 years old is required to be present at both the pick-up and the delivery of the vehicle. Before you ship the vehicle, the auto carrier will carry out a thorough inspection to check for any existing damage and you will need to make sure that everything is documented on the bill of lading and finally all of the necessary paperwork has been signed by you and the auto carrier driver. Additionally, it is essential that someone be present at the time of delivery in order to conduct a thorough inspection of the vehicle upon its arrival and provide a signature on the bill of lading confirming its condition. In the event that there is any damage that occurred while the vehicle was in transit, this safeguards you. In addition, we have found that it is beneficial to have a contact person on either end of the delivery process. This allows us to quickly resolve any issues that may arise while your vehicle is in transit.

  • Can I put personal items in my vehicle?

    The answer is yes; you are permitted to load your personal belongings into your vehicle. Having said that, we do not advise leaving anything inside the vehicle that is of significant value or that cannot be replaced. During the time that your vehicle is being transported, neither your auto transport company nor the auto carrier company, are liable for any items that are stolen from the vehicle, and insurance policies typically do not cover such thefts either. Additionally, the total weight of these items must not exceed one hundred pounds, and they must be contained within the trunk of the vehicle or behind (or under) a window line.
    Take Note - When you are going to put some personal belongings in the vehicle for the transportation process, make sure that you inform your transport coordinator about it.

  • What does the First Available Pick-up Date mean?

    "First Available Pick-up Date" refers to the earliest day that we are able to schedule a pickup for your vehicle. When the vehicle will be ready for pick-up on your end, availability of our carriers and the routes they take are the factors that determine this. Our team of transport coordinators will work together with you to determine the most suitable date for pick-up, taking into account your requirements, while also making every effort to offer a cost-effective solution.

  • How do I pay for my auto shipping?

    We accept all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard and American Express. In the event that you would want to make a payment using a bank check, ZELLE or PayPal, please get in touch with us directly for further details. Once you have been assigned to a carrier, you will be required to pay a deposit, and the balance of the payment must be paid in full at the time of drop off using either cash or certified funds. Just let us know when you call to arrange your shipment, and we will be happy to supply you with additional alternatives if you require them.

  • Which online car shipping reviews are important to consider?

    According to consumers, the most important factors to take into consideration are reviews and accreditations for companies that ship cars. It is recommended that you conduct research with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), as well as consult feedback from previous customers. A car shipping business that is reputable and trustworthy has to at the very least be certified with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and have a good rating (A or better). When it comes to vehicle transporters, the Better Business Bureau (BBB) is an excellent independent business dependability review board. Most other auto transport review sites receive some compensation for their services from companies. Because of this, there are instances in which evaluated businesses pay for their rankings like on Forbes.com, ConsumerAffairs.com and so many other ranking sites in the car shipping industry. When you transport a vehicle, you should do it with a car shipping business that you can rely.

  • Do car shipping costs vary from state to state?

    Vehicles that are being shipped to the states of California (CA), Florida (FL), New York (NY), and Texas (TX) are the most frequently traveled routes. There are also a number of other states that are popular, including Georgia (GA), Virginia (VA), Washington (WA), Massachusetts (MA), Ohio (OH), South Carolina (SC), North Carolina (NC), and Arizona (AZ). The remaining states have a lower demand, and as a result, there are fewer auto carriers that service those routes.

  • Are you a broker or a carrier for auto transport?

    It is a calculated risk to ship a car without the assistance of a auto transport broker. For the purpose of preventing clients from being taken advantage of by dubious car shipping carriers, the industry of auto transport is controlled through the services of brokers. The responsibility of assisting and educating customers in order to guarantee that their carriers are licensed with the Department of Transportation and insured has been delegated to auto transport brokers. When consumers do not have access to a broker, they face the danger of hiring a carrier that is not only unreliable but also uninsured and unlawful. This scenario frequently results in the consumer being left with a damaged vehicle and no way to seek compensation.  Ship A Car, Inc. is a licensed and insured auto transport broker.
