Take your pick:
A. Cheap
B. Reliable

And, also, a reliable company is only good as the people driving the trailor. Sometime you end up with a crappy driver from a reliable company. It just depends on your luck.

p.s. My car came from NY. It was fine for the most part, but the front lip scratched when they put it down on the drive way. My gf's uncle's 650hp S351 from MD was shipped and when they unloaded, they scratched the lip on it too.

This is who I used...they also have a price match guarantee, so you can get quotes from a couple of places and they will lower the price.

They did a great job, I had zero scratches marks, and a full inspection is done before pickup and after drop off. If anything is wrong, you can make a claim. (I didn't have to do that, so I don't know how it would pan out.)

Also, they track your order @all times, and allow you to speak personally w/the driver. That way I was able to inform him of the specialty of my car, and to keep an eye on it. He also was able to load it between 2 other cars, so there was no chance of it gettin stolen.

Also, there are registered transporters, and brokers.

Brokers, hire someone to pick up your car...and most likely have never dealt w/that person/co. before. So they pick up your car when conveinent, and they can not track your order in most cases.

Transporters, use only there on personal trucks/employee. so they know exactly what is going on w/your car..

Brokers are cheper, but you will probobly want a registered transporter.

You really think someone's going to have a complete stranger DRIVE their newly bought ITR across the country?
