That's ridiculous, you should be able to get under 900 for sure. Make sure and check "terminal to terminal" not door to door or any of the other options. The reason they are all within 10 dollars is because those 3 companies will put the car on the same truck!

he said he was already towing a car so that wont work.

if you call some freight brokers, not the trucking companies, you may get a better price but i used to haul out of cali back to the midwest for 1500 and that was a truckload, not a partial load like you have. 4-500 is the most you should have to pay.
