    Hello everyone, I am buying a car out of state.
    Just trying to find out if there are any haulers coming to California from Colorado? Any input or advice would be appreciated.
     
  2. The Hamb O Dex Section is where you will find ads for the QUALITY Transporters here on the HAMB : BenD, Racinman, David Robert Phelps & Myself. You can see hundreds of all POSITIVE feedback posted by the actual Hambers who have used our service over the years! Send a message/email or phone call to any or all for a quote from honest car guys who know their business.

    I personally cannot help you on this one as I am booked almost 100% until mid October & will probably shut down at that time for a few months to work on my cars.

    God Bless

    Bill and the others he mentioned are the trusted Hamb haulers that we all suggest when people ask about hauling.
    A few things all of them are going to want to know are:
    Does the vehicle run and drive, can it be operated safely to load it on the hauler/trailer.
    If it is non op"
    Does it have four tires that hold air? will all four wheels turn as in "is it a roller"
    Does the seller have it out where they can wheel in and load it and go in a reasonable time.? That means an actual current photo of it sitting out where it is to be picked up.

    I don't haul for a living and at this stage in life don't intend to but have gone with a friend to pick up a rig that he was hauling for someone that was supposed to be out and ready to go and spent half a day digging the thing out so we could haul it. Every thing that a hauler might have to do to get the car loaded goes on your dime.

  5. There is little demand to haul vehicles into Colorado.
    You have to drop a vehicle off relatively close before you can pick one up.

    May thru September is the height of the hauling season - starting in September and continuing thru May is hail season in Colorado ( in fact it can hail ten months out of the year ).

    If the vehicle you are considering purchasing is not in the greater Denver area - but say perhaps in the mountains west of there - you will find it difficult to actually find someone with experience who wants to go pick it up.

    I had David Phelps move 3 cars and extra parts last week. He did an excellent job.
