auto transport

Trying to get our toad back to Michigan from TX. Any suggestions? Perhaps delivery drivers who haul campers from Elkhart?

Just looking for advice.

Thx
  • Boy I think we have sunk to an all time low with comments like that. But then consider the source. RV'ers who do not even tow a toad. :(

    To the OP:

    Believe it not I found the most qualified and reasonably priced transports under the horse section classified.

    These people go north to south and south to north monthly and also offer TT hauling and car transport. they are bonded and insured and IMHO as honest as the day is long. Google horse transport in both your pick up and destination area.

    I use them to haul horses for me as do many and we consider that cargo VERY precious. These people get the job done are experienced and they charge a LOT less than the commercial car carriers because they are going that way anyway. Texas and Florida being their main runs.

    I used them to move my toad from up north to the south. !/8 the price of what the car commercial car carriers wanted AND they gave me an arrival date. Most of the commercial carriers could not.

    Hope you find what you need.
  • Was not a negative or sarcastic comment at all. The man wants to know as much as he can so that he might make an informed and intelligent comment. Give him a break

    The OP has nothing better to do than troll on here as cabin fever...OOOPs he's in TX not MI with plenty of things to do. Maybe he bought a boat and it's going back behind the MH. Why do you have to question his reasons?:S OK, Sprink you are the one with cabin fever in MN with nothing better to do.
    X2 on Uship. Another possibility is finding a Copart auto salvage yard and ask then about auto transport to MI.


    Can't I ask a question, by the time you ask and check prices on shipping you could be half way there, drive it there and fly back. How do I know he has plenty of things to do?

    Who says I have cabin fever, I am in Minnesota because I like it here. Beleive it or not some people like winter.

    Talk about a negative, sarcastic comment!!!!

    Actually, I was kind of thinking something very similar. I am a TT guy, so maybe I do not understand the term TOAD. I thought it was a vehicle in tow....thought the OP could just hook it up and go?????

    Go there and place a listing. You will (or should) get quotes on getting that vehicle moved all the way.

    I've used the service several times for my business and personal. There are many different carriers so make sure you choose one that has a favorable rating!
  • There are a number of companies that specialize in driving cars from one place to another. One example that's been around since the 50's is Auto Driveaway, but there are others that may be better, cheaper, etc.
