Need a recommendation on a car transporter

I just sold my car and need to have it shipped accross country. Does anyone know a good and not too expensive transport company? The buyer would like to ship it enclosed if possible.

Thanks,
Bill

I would highly recommend Applewood Motorcar. I had my car shipped from Miami to MD and it ran me about $800 in a single car enclosed trailer. They do a lot of jobs for some exotic dealers here on the east coast.

Not sure if he does the west but it's worth a shot

Bill Demoise- Demoise Trking. Highly recommended, nothing but good reviews on all the various on-line web sources. Prolly not the cheapest, but I cannot stress enough that lower price will almost certainly get you lower service and less care. If YOU are shipping it to a buyer, YOU should make sure that it will arrive in exactly the same condition as it left your house....

Bill, Intercity is a 6speed sponsor and sponsors the for sale section. Help keep 6speed alive by using one of the sponsors. I've also heard nothing but positive reviews with IC Here's the thread they started offering discounts to 6speed members https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...d-members.html

again, congrats on selling your car!

+1 for Intercity, I shipped my turbo from Miami to L.A. with great service.

Those were the 2 I narrowed down to when I had my TT shipped...and this was after searching quite a bit on mulitple forums.

Call those 2, and see which one has the best schedule/pricing for you. The quote I got was within $50 of each other, but one was able to pickup the car next day due to a truck in that area...
