Here is how it works and a couple web addresses you must use. If at all possible DO NOT USE A BROKER! Go to: movecars.com and click on your state. Call everyone and ask them if they are a broker, if they say yes, hang up. When you find a trucking company, get their " MC" or "USDOT" number. Then go to: safersys.org go to the bottom of page and click on "Company Snapshot" put in the MC number or the USDOT number. See if they are a car hauler or vegetable hauler. Read over the pages on these web sites, you'll learn a lot. If you fill out a quote page on any of those other web sites be ready to have your email box overrun with BROKERS that give you a price and it is never the final price! The deposit is the brokers price. The cash you have to have at the end of the trip is for the trucker. See if you can cut out the broker and get to the drivers, you get the REAL price. I did not know all this till we used, "Above the Rest Auto Transport." What the brokers fail to understand is that we have a lot of stuff going on in our lives on top of moving and trying to get our car from point "A" to point "B" so we have a car to finish our job in one place and be ready for our new job in another state. So telling me to "NOT WORRY" is not easy. Bruce may have known something I didn't but that does not help you sleep at night. I must say he was right about a trucker coming through in the end but the price went from $425.00 to $525.00. You see after the broker gets his "FEE" you deal with the truck driver who excepts the brokers price. If your lucky the driver will call you and show up when he says he will. Suppose to be a 2 to 3 hour window of pick-up and delivery, yea, not so much. It turned out alright after losing my hair and Bruce was a good guy. Next time I will try my best to find a trucking company on my own. But I would use "Above the Rest" if I had to.
