car hauling companies

[ord27]

I finally pulled the trigger on a '67 RS
It's in the Seattle area and I need it hauled to Texas

I have several quotes from different companies. They vary in price by up to a $200 difference. It seems that they like to trash talk the competitor, so I am a bit leary of commiting to any one of them.

Does anybody here have any recommendations? Good or Bad experiences?

Thanks

I just used Intercity, based on several recommendations here. Do some searching and you will find several threads about this topic. Intercity isn't cheap, but I was very happy with the service.

I just PM'd you. I will be in Seattle on or around March 18 or 19th. I might be able to rent a uhaul and bring it as far as Phoenix for fuel costs but then you would have to get from Phoenix to Texas.

You might try http://www.sportscarshop.com/ for hauler advice, ask for Bob. They are a block from my business and have haulers delivering and picking up nice cars weekly.

I used Horseless Carriage for a car shipped from Kali to NC. Car stayed on one truck with the same driver. You could tell that he took pride in how he cared for the cars on the truck. Very pleased with them.

I am going to call around some more Monday

I and several of my friends who ship coast to coast use DAS. They have been dependable, professional and the cars arrive in excellent shape. THe rates vary but i like mine on one truck, above the cab, and covered. It costs a bit more but that is my preference. My friends have used standard service many times with great results. I am thiniking of shipping my 69 z west again and I will use them.

I have used Reliable Carriers (the ones with the big orange trucks). They are not the cheapest but they showed up on time, communication was excellent, inspected the car carefully and delivered it when they said they would. I would use them again.

I would not use DAS. I have a friend that used them to haul Fonzi's hot rod from Happy days. They drug it around the country for a couple months, driver took it out for joy rides, burnt up the wiring, quite the nightmare for him.

I use http://www.reliable-carriers.com/default.cfm and also http://www.concourstransport.com/

Reliable is one of the largest with over 300 trucks.

Few months back Fernando Killer67 had a caddie picked up from my place by Exoctic Car Transport. Killer price, great service, total professionals.

Just like Charlie said...
Reliable is just what they say...Reliable.
