"I recently used Rapid Auto Shipping to transport my car from Southern to Northern California on 2/27/25, and I could not be happier with their service. At first, I was a bit skeptical because the price and customer service seemed too good to be true, but they exceeded my expectations in every way. The entire process was smooth, fast, and exactly as planned; no delays, no hidden fees, just reliable service. Their team was professional and communicative, keeping me updated throughout the journey. Best of all, my car arrived in perfect condition right on time. If you are looking for an affordable, efficient, and trustworthy auto transport service, I highly recommend Rapid Auto Shipping. Thank you for making this such an easy and stress-free experience!"

"Rapid Auto Shipping Company not only delivered my car safely, but their assistance made me believe in this experience that shipping a car can be a simple and straightforward process."
"Good Company to Ship vehicles. Called them Monday Morning to get my vehicle picked and guess what they made the pickup in 2 hours and it was approx. 1000miles and they made the delivery on Wednesday. Really Quick services the driver and Nathan was professional during the whole communication will use them again for any future shipment."
Robert Brock

"Vishesh assisted us in shipping our Model 3 from Pennsylvania to California. As we had never shipped a car before, we were worried about the process. However, Vishesh provided us with comprehensive guidance and remained in touch throughout the entire journey, from the initial pickup of the vehicle to its post-delivery inspection. During the pickup and delivery phases, the driver thoroughly inspected the car for any scratches or dents. Remarkably, our car arrived at its destination without any damage, and not a single item had been touched (we had a car cover and some charging cables). The process was so smooth that they picked up the car at my door and delivered the car at apartment gate(it is impossible for that big truck to enter my apartments)"
The average cost to ship a car is indirectly proportionate to the distance a car needs to be shipped. Let's say if the vehicle needs to be transported up to 500 miles than average cost is slightly above $1. As the distance increases and it goes up to 1000 miles than average cost decreases to $ 0.75 per mile.

Communication:Communication is the essence of our transportation process. On your set pickup date, our driver will contact you to schedule a pickup time and will bring the loading carrier at the pickup spot.
Documentation and Inspection: When your driver arrives at your pre-arranged pick-up location, you and he will carry out a detailed inspection of your car and fill out a Bill of Lading. This document records the exact condition of your vehicle at the beginning of its journey. Sign it to proceed.
Pickup of the Vehicle: Next, the driver will load and secure your vehicle, and the journey to transport it to your new location begins.
Delivery of Vehicle
03
The last step in the process is receiving the vehicle on its arrival. Here is how the delivery process goes.
Communication:Your driver will call you when the transport is getting close to your location, ensuring that you are available to pick up the car.
Off-Load of the Vehicle: On arrival, your vehicle will be carefully offloaded. Now all you have to do is re-inspect your vehicle to confirm that we took excellent care of it during its transportation.
Finalizing the Delivery: The last step is to sign the Bill of Lading and make the final payment to the driver in the form of cash, money order, or a cashier's check. The process is complete.

The expert team of sales professionals is available for any queries and help from pickup to delivery, giving you the best car shipping experience.
The cost to ship a car in the United States ranges from $500 to $1500, with the average hovering around $1000. However, the total cost of shipping a vehicle is vastly affected by factors such as the distance, the size of the car, the cost of gas, the selected method of transport, and the time of the year, among others.
In an open auto transport, vehicles are shipped in an open-air two-level trailer where vehicles are exposed to the elements. This method is cheaper, faster, and suitable for standard and used vehicles. Enclosed auto transport is carried out with a fully enclosed trailer that gives protection from external elements such as dust, debris, and theft. This method suits high-value and classic cars that need more protection during shipping.
A vehicle that cannot move on its own power is a non-running or inoperable vehicle. Almost any kind of vehicle can be shipped, whether it's moving or not. However, this type of vehicle requires special equipment and techniques for loading and unloading, leading to higher shipping costs.
The answer is 'yes.' Each vehicle that is shipped is insured during transit. Auto transport companies are legally required to have liability insurance that covers potential damage to your vehicle while it's in their custody. This insurance provides protection during loading, unloading, and transit.
You may transport personal items in your car, as long as their total weight does not exceed 100 pounds and they are stored in the trunk or back seat (below the window line). Please keep in mind that personal belongings are not covered by insurance if they are reported as damaged or missing.
There is no fixed timeframe for car delivery. However, it typically takes 6-12 days to deliver a car in the USA, but this can vary due to distance, route, weather, carrier availability, and the method of transport, such as open or enclosed.
Yes, at Rapid Auto Shipping, we offer door-to-door auto transport services. This is a very convenient way of shipping your car, where you don't need to drop your vehicle at a terminal. Your car is picked up from your location and delivered to your desired destination.
To prepare your vehicle for shipping, you must thoroughly wash and clean your vehicle's interior and exterior. To avoid leaks during transport, you must top off excess fluids, such as coolant, oil, brake fluid, etc. Check tire pressure and remove accessories and personal belongings. Take the vehicle's picture and document its condition before shipping.
Yes, you can track your vehicle during transport. We offer a vehicle tracking facility; our carrier trucks have GPS installed that allows you to track your vehicles' location in real time. You can also speak to our drivers and get an update. Apart from this, you can always contact us and get an update on your vehicle.
We can ship any vehicle that has wheels in it. Rapid Auto Shipping specializes in shipping all types of vehicles, such as sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, minivans, oversized vehicles, antiques, classic cars, motorcycles, construction vehicles, inoperable cars, and boats. If you think your vehicle cannot be shipped, just call us at +1-833-233-4447 to find out what we can do for you.

Understanding Auto Transport
Brokers vs. Carriers
Carriers are companies that own and operate trucks that physically transport vehicles. Brokers are the companies that act as intermediaries and help shippers connect with carriers. Brokers handle the sales aspect of the transportation, such as dispatch, billing, and customer service. In contrast, carriers handle the transportation and are responsible for the vehicle's condition during transportation. Carriers offer limited service, and they may have limited access to routes and schedules, but Brokers have access to a vast channel of carriers, through which they help shippers in locating the right carrier and ensure they have the necessary equipment and routes for a specific shipment.
What Is A Carrier?
The logistics or trucking company that carries out the actual transportation of the vehicles by using different mediums, such as trucks, trains, or ships, is known as a carrier. They may be a fully specialized auto transport company that offers complete transportation services, but carriers are primarily companies that carry out the transportation of vehicles. Different types of carriers are: Road carriers: These carriers use specialized trailers in their trucks to transport vehicles over long distances, which is the most common method of auto transport. Rail carriers: Rail transport is used for the transportation of multiple vehicles at once. Sea carriers: International trade mainly uses the sea method to transport vehicles.
Car Shipping Brokers Keep Your Costs Low
Car shipping brokers are companies that give you hassle-free transport services. They handle the entire shipping process, from booking to delivery, and utilize and optimize the shipping routes to reduce overall costs. Brokers have access to many carriers, and their deep understanding of the industry helps them negotiate rates and find the best transport solution for the shipment at a very competitive cost. Brokers work with many clients simultaneously, so they can negotiate lower rates with carriers to give them bulk business. In short, auto transport brokers deliver all kinds of advantages that a carrier cannot, so brokers help keep shipping costs lower.
