I get this question all the time. Instead of spending 15 minutes on the phone trying to explain it I decided to write a post on it. Why do the quotes vary so much. There are good brokers out there that want to get car s moved for a fair price and quote what they […]
Yes it is still here. Just after the holidays 2 week in Jan 2015 the number of cars heading to florida was crazy. If you plan on shipping during this week the price went up about 100 dollars. It is very easy supply and demand. Alot more customer and not enough trucks it is simply […]
Yes, the holidays are behind us. Therefore, the number of snowbirds has increase. The number of people looking to move their car south has tripled in the last week. Therefore, more cars means limited space for everyone. what this means is price increase on cars heading south. There has been an increase of 100 dollars […]
I get calls all the time for shipping quotes. Most people just want to hear the price and nothing else. My quotes are giving to be picked up 1-7 days and also have a 1-4-day and 1-2 which cost more. These quotes take time and I tell people to go to my websites to get exact […]
A lot of broker buy leads and end up fighting against 9 other brokers and I don’t low ball quotes or liar to my customers so this idea doesn’t work for me.

I paid him $1750 […]
I was in the office today and received a call from a person that was looking to ship a car from Weymouth, Mass to Las Vegas, NV. He told me the story that he had a carrier(has their own trucks) and the truck broke down in New York and couldn’t do it. I asked for […]
Ok summer is over and kids are back in school. Yes, the fall is when a lot of snowbirds start heading to Florida and Arizona for the winter. The question is when does it start? My rates kick in right around Oct 1st because there are a number of vehicles being ship to Florida now. […]
I always wonder why people choose a broker they know nothing about.

They answers an ad in their local paper i.e. craigslist […]
