I've used Bulleye in the past to transport my STI (no longer own) from NoCal to MN. Broker easier to work with and responsive. Driver coumnicated between previous owner and I for pick up time, kept me updated throughout the trip, and called me when he was an hour out to arrange drop off (at nearby school parking lot). Overall, great experience.

Matson | Home
I used Matson to ship a car to Hawaii and they were great. I don’t know if they do domestic only or not though. I would imagine they do because the carrier (subcontractor?) transported from Denver to L.A. when it went on a Matson ship to HI.

Just use an online broker, get few quoted and pick whoever your feel comfortable - in most cases the carrier prices will be close, but broker fees will vary dramatically.

Just be aware that once they have your email, the email from them will be relentless.

Depends on how valuable your vehicle is to YOU.

Enclosed wont be cheap. What are the destination and origin states? I've been a carhauler for over 20 years and I can point you towards some very good, reputable carriers depending on your lane.

I agree with Joe's recommendation of A-1 Auto Transport and I have used them before to ship cross country. No problems at all with them and would definitely use them again if needed. I found them to be on the cheaper side too (it has been a couple years).
