Car is in NY and will be coming here to Memphis, TN. I've debated on driving it but my schedule won't permit it and that's 1,500 extra miles I don't want on the car. What's a good company to hire? I've gotten one quote for $1,300 for an enclosed trailer. :eek:

What are my options and what are some good companies to use?

Yep, right at $1,300 for an enclosed with DAS, $1,100 for a top rack on an open trailer.

They gave me a pretty good quote. Better than all the others. Have you used them personally before?

1300 for an enclosed trailer doesn't sound that bad. What car are you looking at?

I had them ship my cobra from MS to PA, not a single problem and I called them on a Friday, they picked it up that Saturday, and I got it that Sunday

That's actually pretty good, some of these companies can't always get them right away and/or deliver so quickly. Even if you have the car delivered to one of their loading facilities, they will try to get an entire truck full of cars before they will schedule the truck for a route.

I believe I got lucky, they give you a 3-5 day window when they are gonna pick it up and drop it off. But they give you at a minimum of a 12hr heads up before
