Car transport

I may need to have a Corvette hauled from California to Kansas. Does anyone have a recommended company or more important WHO to stay away from.

Thanks
Jack

Just a tip from past experiences . Find a transport company near you and deal directly with them , don't go online and get quotes from brokers they're a pain in the a$$.

Those brokers are jerk-offs. I would either suggest towing it yourself or using Reliable. They have enclosed trailers

Where are you moving to in Kansas????

I had two excellent experiences with Intercity when I moved from Indiana to SoCal. Treated both my C5's like their own precious property.

Due to the recommendations on this forum, I am having my new 2013 Grand Sport transported from Boston to California. My question is (since I have never transported a car before), is it customary to tip the driver, and if so, how much? Thanks

Guess I did the same thing you did. They called me for three weeks after my car arrived.
P.S. Nice "avatar".
