Hope you all are well. I am trying to ship a 68 Camaro from Winter Park, FL, 32751 to San Jose, CA., 95129. This car must be shipped enclosed and I am in a BIG HURRY to get the car here. Anyone heading west soon? Or, anyone know of a reliable (like Reliable) carrier that can grab the car quick and rocket it out to CA. The car is ready to go right now. Please let me know by sending me a PM or posting here.

Many thanks,:thankyou:
Chris

Just don't call reliable shippers, it took almost a month to get my truck from SC to LA and when it got home. Parts of it we're stolen during transport. They refund cost of shipping but no coverage on interior pieces

You can try Uship.com too. I had a good experience on there the one time I wanted something shipped in a hurry.

Chris, I have shpped several cars before and uship also rocks. Thsi last time I made major research and just shipped a couple months ago a Rover from Florida (Miami) to the SF Bay Area with this company. They are in Burlingame in Northern CA. Excellent service, cost me $1299 shipped (mention yelp.com for the extra $100 off - original quote was $1400. I HIGHLY recommend and will use them again. The driver was great, careful with the car and I was updated often. Good luck! Gui

I did a lot of research, and almost got scammed, so beware. Do not use Transportreviews.com it is paid by brokers and they write their own reviews - see info below. I almost made a big mistake!!!

Whatever you do do not use this company:

Whatever you do DO NOT USE this company, major issues, owner is Bill Avrich.

Reliable Carriers? I have used them twice and never had problem. I was the last car to be picked up, but the driver dropped my car off in 14 hours from Ohio to Florida. I doubt it got stolen in transport, but probably at the warehouse. A friend of mine drives for a Atlas Van Lines, and he said that it most likely happened at the warehouse. That would explain why it was sitting for a month before you got your car. My friend has moved cars with household goods.

Make sure the company that you chose is bonded.

Who knows we're it got stolen, all I know my floor mats , gauge cluster vezzel, center caps , and front spoiler were gone by the time it got to me. The good thing was that dealership I bought it from in SC was a helpful witness as to condition when it was loaded.

I use Reliable-Carriers all the time. I have them scheduled to haul 4 cars for me right now. They have over 300 trucks.
