Avoid like the plague, any brokers or people who don't use their own trucks/trailers.
We had an experience with one and it was bad beyond belief.

Use Passport or Intercity.
Not Reliable which failed me miserably on the delivery of my Dodge Viper from Indiana to S. Florida, Unreliable created interior damage where none existed. Luckily the salesman and dealer stepped up, kudos to Mike Allen salesman at Hiday Dodge in Bluffton, Indiana. They provided the best experience of any purchase in my entire life.

I used 2 Men and a Truck for a short move, and they were the worst movers. Unprofessional.... my experience....

As with any franchise or business, it's up to you to investigate the specific business location you're considering. There is good and bad with EVERYTHING.

I used Plycar when I purchased my 2019 Z from Mike Furman that’s who he used to ship it to me from Maryland to Chicago. I personally had no issues and the driver contacted me when he was close by.

Thank you for the input. Will definitely keep track of that information.

Recently shipped my new C7 purchase from FL to MA. Booked it through American Auto Transport, enclosed trailer, $1675. Many of these companies broker the transport service. The company that delivered mine turned out to be Majestic Inc, out of Springfield MA. A six car carrier that loaded up in FL and brought 6 cars up to New England. My car was first on and last off. Talked to driver/owner, Denis, who was great, answered all calls and texts, and coordinated all the details of the load and drop off. Excellent experience.

Anyone have experience with Ship A Car Direct? I don’t see them mentioned but reviews seem good and they are less money by ~30%….

To clarify they are 30% less than the highest prices but not the cheapest
