shipping a car
Does anyone have any experience in shipping a car? I want to consider that option when I purchase my project.

Hi Noch.
From where to where? |
I've shipped a couple different cars, one from europe to the states and 3 from the states to europe, what do you need to know?

Concrete prices are hard to get. Usually you get quoted and the final price is based on what the driver/company wants do it for.
I shipped a car from maryland to california for 800. Overall good experience. Cheapest method I found is a depot to depot type. They drop it off at a yard and you pick it up at another one. Then there's a home to depot or depot to home. Home to home, which is what I did. Luxury treatment is an enclosed trailer. Anything under 100 miles, get a AAA membership and get it towed. |
Hey,
It would ship to GA from somewhere in the US. The more I look in the forum I think I will be able to find a TII within range of just getting ones of those Uhaul tow dollies for $50. I have a Tacoma and could just tow is straight home. I was just trying to think worse case if I can't find one close and had to ship it. I got the fever. |
I've personally used uship.com to ship my FD to my house, and I've sent a car using a company from transportreviews.com. Both were good, just make sure to read their feedback before picking a shipper.

Edit: ^ beat me to it.
When i shipped my RX7 from S.C. to Ne. it was a bad experience. It took the 3 months to put a load together to make the trip. Then it took another 2 1/2 weeks to get here, so it wasn't a speedy delivery by any means. On the other hand i purchased a motor from California. We got onto uship.com and I've never shipped something so quick. It left on Saturday morning and showed up Monday afternoon. So it was a much more positive experience. If i was going to ship another car i'd be putting it up on uship and see what bids come up. |
Cool, uship.com looks like a winner. Thanks for the help!

I got a motorcycle shipped via uShip, they are reasonable and professional
