Default Cheap car hauling

Help, guys. I need to move one car from Florida to Louisiana and bring back one car from Louisiana to Florida by end of month. Am considering renting open trailer and truck, or paying transport company. 79 cents a mile is $$$ Thanks Paul

Just saw a thread on this. There's a guy local to me that does only one car at a time. His rig is so clean you could eat off the floor. Car arrives perfect, uses gloves. Can't remember the business name.

BAM!!!

Cheap very rarely is the least expensive!

Price has never been my biggest concern when having my cars transported.

Do NOT use a broker. Talk directly to the actual carrier.

Whatever you do - pick a pro! Sold my C5 and the buyer sent a single car trailer to pick it up. The dude drove up the ramp, which was too steep for a vette and the car highsided, rear wheels were completed hanging in the air. The genious then hooked up the winch and dragged the car onto the bed. Lower skirts on both sides were scraped horribly. You get what you pay for!
