Absolutely the way to go! We refer our clients to trusted and reliable logistics brokers, but sometimes they choose to explore other methods to save a couple of bucks. On a brighter note, we had the dealership go to where local transport company brought the car and it was still there (likely waiting for the coast to clear). Police arrived at the scene and the car was fully recovered with no damage. Hopefully this time and the client will pay the extra few bucks for a safe and vetted option.

First time shippingā¦ any advice on what to ask and look for? Obviously insurance and DOT license? It seems nobody does any kind of agreement or signature - which seems odd to me.
@Jrouleau426 Your contact came well priced and easy to deal with. It beat the sellers preferred option. So thanks for that

How much are you saving using a random company? Itās prob not worth the hassleā¦thereās some serious horror stories out there with these shippers companies
Agreed. Which is why im putting a heavier weight on recommendations, but still. It feels weird that nobody has an agreement or a contract or some kind of liability acceptance. How does the seller release a car to a truck without any paperwork? it all seems so amateur
They do. Dealers sign off. Driver signs off. Then you sign off at delivery. Thereās a chain of command that protects everyone. Even if you sign and miss damage at delivery theyāre usually very good about repairing it. Just donāt wait days to find said damage
