I have used Reliable. They were great, and are one of our sponsors.

Reliable does a good job. Some of the low dollar companies use poor equipment, I don't go that route any longer.

I just did a '69 Camaro from PA to Oregon. I had a hard time getting anyone coming to the PNW on any normal time schedule. I finally used "Transport Luxury Auto". They have their own trucks plus has a few independents they use. Picked my car up within 3 days and it was here 4 days later! Only one experience with them but they come to PNW often so that worked well.

You mean like this Tim?? Lol! This is what you get when you hire a broker. the driver was just as sketchy as the rig, barely understood English. There were some high dollar exotic and muscle cars inside. (Not mine fortunately!)

Exactly, I truly thought it was the last trip for one guys trailer. The thing was ready to fall apart.

I can echo the problems from using a cheaper carrier. I had to hire some people to threaten his lively-hood, lawyers, etc. I got him bounced from advertising in Hemmings. It actually took 6 months to get my car, which is insane! When I got my car there was some paint damage. I found out others had problems with this person in the past. I will never go the cheap route again. I've used Peterson (I don't think doing it anymore) and Passport in the past. Like Indiana Jones, choose wisely...
