Ship a car?

whostorm05 · 04-30-2012, 12:04 PM

Has anyone had to ship a car recently? Would you use the same carrier as you did before?

I'm moving from Washington State to Indiana and need to ship my car back. Not sure if I should go with an auto broker - directly to a transport company - or what. I also can't decide between enclosed and open.

Suggestions?

Enclosed is totally worth the extra $$$. I used Lone Star auto shipping, worked with Tammy there and would use them again.

I think I've decided to drive instead of shipping it. We'll see if I survive. Between the exhaust drone and my cat, I'm not sure which will drive me nuts first.

Ship the cat.

I think he'll be ok. I'd prob cost 300-400 to ship him.
