[Tigers] Auto transporters

[Iron beast]

I have used intercity and had a good experience.  The handling and delivery was very professional and they can give you a quote based on the addresses pretty quickly.

And it seems cars can get left in yards because the route is nothing that any driver wants. After a period of time they accumulate "storage" fees.� Then there is the extra fee because the car wouldn't start (easily accomplished by leaving the radio on on the last leg - thus it never was a "real" problem). So, yes, do be diligent.

But even there I started reading horror story's about truck trailer rentals. In my case the lowly U-Haul did provide me with a 7,000 mile, 10 foot box truck (they don't rent pick ups with their trailers). But I read about people wanting/needing nothing more that a 10 foot truck and instead getting a 325,000 mile, 24 foot box truck that broke down mid-route. If I factored the need to have bought my own plane ticket it probably would have cost $1.50-$2.00 a mile to transport by myself - one way.

They quoted a price, but when the vehicle showed up-3 days late- the driver wanted another $400 or so before he would unload the vehicle. I think Hagerty's recommends Reliable Carriers.
