How to choose the right transport company

Choosing the right transport company is just as important as picking your new address, so let’s make sure to select the right one. Words of mouth or a quick search of
“Movers near me,” or “Auto transporters near me,” will quickly get you started on the hunt to lock down a great company. This tip applies to both household movers and auto transporters. Reviews ! Make sure to use a reputable review site to check out your potential mover. Google and Yelp are both excellent resources, but keep in mind reviews CAN be altered here. A fantastic resource for Auto Transporters will be Transportreviews.com

How to avoid scams when selecting a transport company

When it comes to auto transport – be leery of companies demanding payment upfront. You should have pertinent details prior to sending payment for deposit or supplying CC info. In the current climate, you can expect $0.60+ mile to cover the cost of fuel – companies promising to ship your vehicle at extremely low rates should raise red flags. Lastly, make sure to ask for their credentials – anyone can sign up with a website for leads, but only companies vetted will have DOT/MC numbers.
