Its not a hassle you just need to shop around and be firm with pricing.

To give you an idea we shipped my coworkers sons 4door civic from los angeles to florida as the kid is going to college $750 all in all. car carrier picked up the car and will drop it off at his university, his friend will sign for it and give them a cashiers check.

To be in the safe side, we took pictures of the car while its being loaded.

Again be firm with pricing. Do your research and you will be good

yea cause this guy isnt having any luck within 250 miles, and has actually started tracking your posts.

Your base cost on top of some decent priced shipping is still under my budget. I can only ask my parents at this point.I'm considering one more vehicle.

When I bought my g I had it shipped. On your end its fairly easy. Be at the place when they say they will be there. Now on the person getting it shipped to, it can be a hassle. I would tell him to look into an enclosed carrier. That way if the car is lowered, its easier to load up. Also if you drive through a hail or dust storm, your fine. Also, in the enclosed get on top. That way oil or other things don't leak onto your car. It cost me around a grand from Mass. To Idaho.
