I recently moved from Charlotte, NC to San Clemente, CA. Making that cross-country road trip in my vehicle was just not feasible. After estimating the cost of gas, lodging, and food along my 3,000 mile journey, the answer was simple; ship the car. I have heard mixed reviews about the auto transport industry, and after doing some research online, AmeriFreight had the highest reviews and best quotes. When I inquired, my agent, Graham Turner, was very up-front and helpful. He made sure he spelled out all of my options, and briefly educated me about how this process would work. I was convinced I chose the right company after Graham quoted me $795, and even threw in a Military discount. With every other agency quoting me retail price (>$1,000), I knew then and there AmeriFreight was the best option.
As I anxiously awaited the fate of my vehicle, Graham made sure he constantly updated me about the status of my order. Eight days after the car was available for pick-up, I got a call from Graham with an offer. It was higher than I was originally quoted, and much more than I could afford. Graham was very cooperative and understanding, and did everything he could to make get me a reasonable price. With a little negotiation, and pull from the agency, I was able to ship my vehicle for $845. I was very pleased with this price.
I received my vehicle in great condition, with a minor scratch under the front bumper. I suspect this occurred during loading and unloading, but it was nothing major. Considering my car had traveled 3,000 miles, if a little dirt and minor scratch were the worst that happened to it, that was alright with me. Quite frankly, it was expected, because those are the risks you take with any auto transport.
In the end, I was very satisfied with my experience with AmeriFreight. I will be happy to use them again in the future. I recommend you do yourself a favor, and trust AmeriFreight with your car and its cross-country journey!
