Default Re: Shipping a car?!????

Hi Jim,

Yes, I realize that 1 Flat Rate is a broker. I said so in my post. My understanding is that the actual carrier they used is an approved carrier from their network, meaning they have history and experience with that carrier and I will say that the carrier was very professional and did a great job that I was happy with. They did raise their price from the original quote of $1200 to $1450, but the original quote was an open transporter and for $1450, I got an enclosed transporter. This was important to me as the trunk of my Nova was filled with high dollar parts (837 alternator, restored smog system, etc.).

I offered up 1 Flat Rate simply as a suggestion as I would be comfortable using them again. At the time I did this haul a year ago, fuel was maybe 15% higher than today's market and the only other comparison I had was calling Reliable Carriers who quoted me something like $2200 if I recall correctly.

Good luck with whoever you choose.

Paul
