Default Help needed. Car shipping from Oregon coast to SW Ohio.

No rush on timing. Looking for quotes. Car is inoperable but complete. Extra parts will be secured in vehicle.

I prefer to chase non-ops. But if you need it hauled, you could try broker boards like Uship. You actually want a hot shot but they comb the job offers. Likely some of them are winch setup on the gooseneck.

I like Reliable but it'll be pricey. Enclosed and some limitations on non-ops. So depends on car value and if rare. I don't like "eye candy" getting attention on a cross country haul.

I paid 1100 for a car 12 months back. LA to midwest. Dealer stated he paid couple hundred more but we had a fixed deal.

Good luck, I’m dealing with a nightmare right now on shipping. Car was supposed to be picked up last Tuesday in Texas to be delivered to me in NH on Friday. Their truck “broke down” they jerked me around until Friday late night after promising to be there Wednesday then Thursday. I told them MULTIPLE times I needed the car here by Sunday night since I was leaving for a work trip on Monday. Of course they had more issues yesterday & now I’ve cancelled my work trip so that I can be here if & when they show up tonight. Do yourself a favor, skip all of these clowns & go with one of the guys in the members helping members section, there’s two transportation guys who post there. You can’t save enough money dealing with the stress of waiting for your new baby to be shipped by someone who could care less about their promises or your feelings.
