Any good car hauler recommendations?

Friend wants to have his C6 hauled from NJ to SC... preferably in an enclosed trailer. Any good places you can recommend for reasonable prices???

Here are few that have been mentioned before. I looked in this year's Camaro Fest section but didn't see any mention. Good luck!

George has asked me to set up this thread to see how many people are considering shipping their car to the fest.

For more information on the company, their website is...www.jplogistics.net


Please sign up below if you would like to ship your car to or from the fest.

Vendors, this means you too if you want your cars shipped while you fly out to set up your booths.

So many small things can delay a driver, so having a time frame is better than sitting at home waiting for a driver that doesnt show because of issues out of their control.

Another thing is beware of reviews online. Sure you may see someone companies with excellent reviews and then realize that the review site is actually sponsored by the company as well... BBB is the same way. If you are a member and pay their yearly fee mysteriously negative reviews seem to fall off the face of the earth.

Look beyond the normal reviews etc and do some real homework on a company. The industry is a touch one and choosing the right company is critical.

In fact, take a look at www.ultimatetransportguide.com it goes over all the ins and outs on how the industry works.


Oh, and if you need help shipping let me know. I know trucks running that route weekly.

Guess if I could afford one of those I could afford closed transport and it wouldn't of been an issue .

They were reasonably priced for an enclosed transport.

I recommend them.

Reliable Carriers has a new hub in New Jersey. Not cheap, but the best never is.
