What are some reputable auto transportation companies?

Need to ship my two vehicles from Florida to Arizona. Every transport company I research has terrible reviews. Any suggestions? We are going Conus to Conus so the army won't cover our POV and we aren't in a position to drive them.

Usually you go through a broker who puts out your request and companies bid, leaving it up to you to choose the best as they all call and email you fighting to get picked. You choose if you want open transport, top or bottom level, etc too. It ran me around $900 to ship a running car from NC to CO, so be ready for the cost of 2 will likely be around $2k for that distance.

See https://www.defensetravel.dod.mil/Docs/perdiem/JTR.pdf paragraph 052901 and 052902. Table 5-63 should help answer your question.

I have shipped a car to Guam at my expense and had similar concerns that you have, a reputable firm. I visited the transportation office, cant remember their exact office title but they handle your PCS moves. I simply asked who they use for transporting autos; got their list and made some calls to get prices. Worked out fine!

PVT Private RallyPoint Member As an additional protection when you have selected a transport company, take a full set of exterior and interior pictures of your vehicles. Have the company rep inspect the vehicle and sign the copies. You keep the copies. If there is any damage en route you will have the before load pictures to support any claim. A little hassle, but could pay off if you need it. Good luck with the move.

Ask them Maybe they can help you. https://lexelmoving.com I had two huge pianos moved. My parents almost moved their whole house (things, furniture, paintings). They took out two vans. You arrange a date and time with them and they arrive on time. The prices are quite normal. For this company I can say, because we know personally how they conduct services. maybe they move cars too.
