Transporter recs for San Diego to NYC - Enclosed

Post by Nick_from_Brooklyn »

:D First time posting!

I just wont the 1980 safari beige 633 on BAT last week and need it shipped to Queens NYC

Can anyone recommend an auto transporter from San Diego to NYC? I have a price from Montway and am waiting on a quote from Reliable Carriers ( found them with discount on Haggerty' website). I'm hesitant to use a broker as never know who's actually transporting, then again this is first time shipping a car so maybe that's not such a concern?


Broker Price $1200 ish
Montway: $2100

I used Horseless Carriage many years ago when transporting my 6er from NJ to CA \:D/

They used (at the time) an enclosed trailer and arrived when expected to =D>

There are quite a few carriers listed in Hemmings Motor News, perhaps you can check that out or I can list them from one of my editions :-"

Ended up booking an enclosed trailer thru Montway. $2199, 10 days driving through Christmas and a snow storm. Was flexible on final delivery after I had to push back a day.

Truck arrived and got the driver's number directly, he had his 2 sons with and said he always drives his own trucks doesn't sub out to anyone else. Will book direct next time and save the agents fee. NYC to Florida, common route here on east coast, was around 1500 which from what I know is a great price for enclosed.
