I needed to ship a car someone bought from me in tn to washington state. After getting some quotes I ended up buying a used truck and an enclosed trailer and took it myself and came out ahead.
Never trust a company that tells you "No upfront costs" and then charges your credit card before the vehicle is picked up. Insist on them NOT getting your card information until the driver shows up with the transport. If more people did this, it would force these idiot "Brokers" to be more honest. AND, don't be fooled into thinking DYNAMIC is a Trucking (Carrier) company. They are a Broker just like all the rest. Broker are hard core sales people and will play lots of games to get you to select them as your choice. They low ball quotes, promise specific shipping times, and just about anything to get your business. They work by commission, so It's HARD-CORE SALES!!! You have to play hardball yourself with a broker. Their are 100's of them. If you deal directly with a specific trucking company, (and you can do this, but it will typically cost you more $. Too much info on the reason to explain in this post), and you don't live in a major city, chances are you'll be waiting 2-4 weeks before your car can be picked up. And that's if they are planning to go through your area any time soon. Remember.... Unless you are a Dealer, or an Auction company that ships cars all the time, You may never use their services again, and thus, They are not that concerned about having to cancel your one-off shipment. This can happen and now you've waisted all that time wait for the pickup, only to be cancelled on right before it was supposed to happen. Brokers place your vehicle type, quoted price (minus their cut) and pickup/delivery point in a system for all the trucking companies to see. Whichever company's respond to except your vehicle will discuss with the broker dates for the pickup/delivery and price. Some may ask for more money (if the broker low balled the quote), and its why many times a call comes to you from the Broker with some lame excuse that the price is higher now. This happens all the time, especially if you have a tight schedule to meet and you can't be more flexible with your pickup and delivery dates. Tight schedules will affect the cost and limit the choices you have in carrier companies. The best thing I could advise is to: 1. Never pay cash or give a credit card deposit until the car is actually picked up. DON'T DO IT!! If the Broker says he has to have your credit card information to start the process and promises NOT to charge your card until pickup. DON"T BELIEVE IT!!! Just say thank you very much, hangup and call a different broker. If you pay a deposit you are just paying the brokers commission/fee up front. I you do this you are taking a big chance! Like rolling dice that they will really work hard to get your car shipped. They already have your money! there's no real incentive to work hard. Get it? 2. Once you know the trucking company (carrier) that the broker assigned to move your vehicle, do your homework on how reputable the trucking company is. VET them fully checking their liability Insurance and certifications for yourself. Don't just rely on what the broker tells you over the phone. (BTW, you have the right to turn down a trucking company the broker finds and wait for a better one, but it may again cost you more.) Remember, the broker very likely low balled your quote to get your business, but that first $ number can and more than likely will change before your vehicle is actually shipped. 3. Be as flexible as possible with the pickup and delivery dates as possible. I recommend you give a 2 week window for the pickup date, and then you can expect several day's to up to 2 weeks for delivery after the pickup date for your vehicle to arrive at its destination. This will make it more likely for you to get a good carrier at a fair price. Trust me! The low ball numbers you may get from a broker ..... You Get What You Pay For!
I had a 2016 GT-350 transported from Southfield Michigan to my home in Kenmore, NY... The carrier tore up the the front valence and splitter... They had it replaced at $500... But they should have known that a pair of 2" by 12" by 10' boards placed in front of the front wheels of the car loading on and off the transport vehicle could have prevented the damage.
Sorry to hear about the damage. It's not uncommon. That is why it pays to get a shipper that know what they are doing. Next time use Dynamic Auto Movers.
@carcoachreports Is Dynamic paying you? Is that why you recommend them? because there's several people on here that said Dynamic asked for a deposit which you say is a red flag and not to use a company that asks for a deposit. Please explain the contradiction. Thanks
She might just really enjoy using them. They should pay here. Look at all the business she's drumming up for them. They should remove the "No money upfront" part on their website and in the welcome email. It is deceptive. Just say deposit required and be honest from the start.
Wow. You just saved me my sanity. Thanks Lauren! Trying to ship a classic Chevelle and a Honda from CA to NM and I've been getting spammed left and right from companies promising "the lowest price". I just want my "babies" delivered quickly and safely!
I thought I would make this easy by trying your Dynamic Auto Movers. I'm moving a car from Vancouver BC to VA. But they said because it's Canadian, I have to pay the whole thing up front. Now what?
I'm looking to move a car from Illinois to Southern California and went to Dynamic link in the description and they too are asking for payment/deposit up front! Where can I get a shipper who doesn't charge until I get my car?
Lauren, my Bookie Vinchenzo DeLirious DeLorenzo asked me to relay a message to you. He's a huge (literally) fan of yours. He also "insures" local business and owns a pizza shop. But he asked me to tell you that he did that "job", that you needed done at the wrecking yard. He used the shredder to eliminate that problem with your old Caddy with sumthin in the trunk.
There’s a company by the name of Autostar transport express and they told me I have to pay $200 upfront then pay the driver the rest in person, should I trust it ?
i asked for a quote on the first site on google I got 15 calls the first hour and 12 text messages... 2 weeks later they wont stop.. I didnt win the ebay auction.... they wont quit calling.
I just set up a transport with Dynamic Auto Movers (the link above) and so far, so good, but the sales rep needed a down payment of $240. Their website and the welcome email he sent said "No upfront costs". Charge just posted to my credit card. We'll see. Never a good thing to start a relationship with deception. To be continued.
So currently i'm looking at using Dynamic and they already charged my card(for the deposit) even though my pickup date is weeks away; but I've heard it's a red flag for auto transport companies to charge you a deposit fee before the car gets pickup. so I'm having second thoughts about it
@@OnyiA I'm using Dynamic Auto Movers and they also charged my card (for a pick up a month and a half from now.) I'm glad to see yours turned out ok. Cheers.
Yep, no need to pay a deposit before they actually dispatch the driver. I charge a deposit at the moment that the driver, the pickup date and time are locked down and I'm dispatching the driver and sending you the contract. That's when you pay the deposit.
Tried to get a Camaro moved from PA to MA. Numerous calls to carrier’s but all I got was voicemail with not one call back. Ended up driving their and taking it back myself.
I will drive your Camaro for you, FREE of charge. I absolutely refuse to be responsible for any Changes to the exterior of said vehicle un question. Or for any "changes' in the engine such as, but not limited to a windowed ot skunked motor or shrapnel created in the transmission, that may well be a factory defect. However, I so promise to get it back to you and the top speed test is free of charge. Have we a deal?
@@CarCoachReports I can always be on a roll. Years of downtime at the dealership and doing call backs to phone ups that I had never spoken to previously helped break the ice. Untrusting phone UPS would be in stitches within minutes and they would come to the dealership just to hear me ramble on some more. If I had a dollar for every Up who laughed themselves to nearly having a mess on their hands. Laughter i much better than BS. hatred, anger and mistrust. And trust sold a LOT of cars
I would personally choose Don Ganno and the rest of his Maffia "Family" to transport my car. However, They're permanently indisposed now because of the old Gotti clan. And the new mob known as the US Government.😄
Because of the vehicles value, I would personally ship it enclosed. But you’ll have to look at the rates. Check with dynamic auto movers and they’ll give you the best prices
@@CarCoachReports Did we mention our company in the comments? Your terrified of having a real discussion that's why you've got my account on block or invisible lol.

@@AutoTransportForDummies Why are you even here commenting? To try to drum up business?

So I called you for a quote and you told me to go onto the website for a quote and to just enter whatever for the make & model. Unless I filled out the contact form with my email address there was no way to get a quote.

I just moved a car from Seattle, WA to Port Saint Lucie, FL and it took 5 days with Dynamic. Was extremely fast. Thanks Lauren!
Thanks for sharing. I just used Dynamic myself to transport a car from CO to Buffalo, NY. Super happy with them.
Do you mindzsaying what the charge was? Or approximately? Thanks
@@CarCoachReports I live in buffalo!
Did they charge a deposit?
I just moved my 2016 Chevrolet Camaro from Las Vegas, NV to Dallas, TX. It only took 3 days & no damage! Thanks for the video.
