Will dig up the contact info, these guys are called Autobox, delivered my Froggy a couple months back and were amazing, I was put on to them by a local shop and had no idea how big they've become. Ship some pretty rare cars, check out their FB page. Impressive stuff and the trucks are top notch. No affiliation, just good service and good price. $1000 shipped from Dallas to Chicago on 2 days notice, called Wednesday, picked up Thursday night, was at my door before noon on Saturday!! I was amazed.

Thanks to those who recommended Nick at Plycar. Tough getting top tier transport so close to the Monterey activities, but Nick fit it in. Wound up being about $1/mile. Nice brand new truck, great driver (Tom).

Plycar is delivering my car tonight. I'll let you know how it goes. Reliable couldn't meet my timing due to all the trucks tied up for Monterey.

Plycar just dropped off my car. Very professional, very nice truck and car was in perfect order. Would definitely use them again.

I just used Unitedroutes from Bloomfield Hills Michigan to Newcastle Washington. It was very quick and professional. They picked up the car on Monday morning and it arrived Wednesday evening. They quoted me Friday delivery btw. Two drivers and unbelievably professional. I was on a truck with a few other folks but I don't mind that. I will likely use them again for smokies spring. Ran me 2k.

Default how do they get the car in the truck?

I am likely needing to transport a cup car... I dont want a guy to start it to get it in the truck (and hit something when trying to get it to move forward)

do they push or have winches?

I just called Intercity to pick up my car from PA to ship to Los Angeles. Will update with my impressions. I went off everyone's suggestions on Rennlist. Reliable was significantly more expensive. Intercity price was fair to me, and Jim did give a small Rennlist discount which is always appreciated. I messaged Apex and they said they only do million dollar cars....whoops.
Forgot to get a quote from Plycar.
