Shiping a car cross country from the east coast.

General board question. Has anyone done this or know of any reputable companys?

I am interested in a car on the east coast and would rather not put the miles on the car or take the time off work to travel there and back.

With the airfare and the time off work it may make more sense to ship it.

Any recomendations?

Thanks in advance.

I used Dependable Auto Shippers once over a decade ago, and they did a good job for me. Not sure how much that's worth though... a lot can change in ten years.

Thanks Plaz I'll check them out as well. I just requested an online quote from Intercity.

edit: I may need to change my screen name to something more generic finally if it all works out.
