Hello!

I'm looking for advice on cross country car shipping. I have a 1997 Jeep Wrangler, and I need to ship it from Michigan to Los Angeles, CA. I've done some research on auto shippers, but the industry seems to be full of scams... Does anyone have any advice on a trustworthy company? No one I know has dealt with car shipping, so I'm really hoping someone on this forum has.

I have contemplated just driving it, but the Wrangler's gas mileage is not the best, and I'd prefer not to put the 2,250 or so miles on it.

Thanks for your time, guys!

Honestly, I'd ask in the Alaska or Hawaii forum. Most people in the continental US would just drive the car.

Out of curiosity (because both my brother and I have, way in the past, driven cars across country for companies) I googled for auto transport companies and didn't come up with anything really shady. There are plenty of bonded and insured companies who will do this for you, one way or another. I've always driven or towed so I have no specific company recommendations.

If you're moving, just get a tow dolly and tow it. Or drive it - it's a beautiful drive! Or use one of the big established moving companies.
