Having my C7 shipped to Houston from a dealer in the northeast. Never shipped a car before, hoping someone can recommend shippers and/or offer advice. Looks like most online are brokers, I would rather deal directly with the shipper. Thanks!

I used Western Auto Transport. Enclosed and their load ramp is very good for low profile cars.

They were a fair price and had the best pick up and delivery window. I was on a tight schedule so that was great for me.

Call them direct and you don't have to worry about a broker.

Sent them a quote request, thanks! Will welcome other suggestions, like to get 2-3 bids.
