I would say rust is not an issue because we get little snow here but lots of rain.

^^^ Agreed.

Vancouver is very mild in the winter months with lots of rain. I wouldn't worry about rust at all.

I would take a look at these guys:

http://www.tfxinternational.com/

The company was used by large vehicle manufacturers to deliver specialty vehicles to and from the auto shows across the country. (ie, everything that didn't come on an open car carrier).

I haven't dealt with them directly but seem to have a good reputation. Check them out and do some added research.

TFX are the best in the business. They're like a divorce. Expensive, but worth it.
