    Inter-City or Horseless Carraige are the only one's I have used and trust without a thought.
    Never had a problem with scheduling or pricing, always on time and let you know where you car is along the way.
     
  5. Call Bill's Auto Works! You can find him in the Hamb-O-Dex. Great guy on time and first cl***. We have use him 4 or 5 times. Never a problem.
    Good Luck, Johnny Sweet

    Most of the convoy truck haulers won't haul a non running car if what you are moving isn't running. I think the Hamb haulers don't have big issues with that though but you have to get on their schedule.

    I know a guy in the car hauling business. Over time he has worked for quite a few different companies. Like most things, quality of service tends to vary with price. The better carriers have fewer damage claims, show up when promised, etc. That doesn't mean there aren't deals out there, but you need to shop carefully.

    lot depends on what kind of car and service you require, i was just quoted $615 by All Aboard Transport Service for open trailer service from los angeles to kansas city, car is operable, etc. which is the lowest i've been offered yet..

    I used Intercity just a few months ago. I wouldn't ask anybody else.
