Title: Recommend a vehicle transport company?
Post by: GreenSheep on May 30, 2017, 12:57:04 PM

Does anyone have any recommendations for a company to transport a Honda Accord from Arizona to Washington in about a month? Thanks! Just looking for something that's reasonably priced and reliable!

You're likely to pay $500-$800 to get the car transported.  Paying someone the gas to drive it is cheaper, and that's a one day drive.

I've used Angels twice. http://www.angelsmovingautos.com/

They've treated me well. :)

20+ hours is a bit of a stretch for a "one day drive."

Here's a good video on picking a company - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kd0x9qGeMTI

Another tip - if you have an EZ-Pass (or equivalent electronic toll tag), make sure you take it out of the car before shipping. A neighbor made that mistake when shipping her son's car from NJ to CA. She paid shipping costs plus all the tolls.
