The customer rep was nice. My location was remote so there weren't many trailers available in my area. I was waiting for a last-minute thing so that AmeriFreight can find some carrier for me. But in the end, I had to drive 90 miles to drop my car so I could find a carrier and I'm still paying a premium to AmeriFreight. Being in this market, AmeriFreight should be able to differentiate and say, “Okay, this is an odd remote location. There are not many carriers available. Here is your option being a customer,” rather than hanging me for last minute. That was one thing I didn't like. They should give their honest opinion to the customer. Also, instead of giving me a quotation for $800 and then charging $1,400, they should give a range to any customer where they won't be surprised at the actual shipping time.

Everything was pleasant with customer service. The quote I got was reasonable and the final cost was what I was expecting.

AmeriFreight was helpful and answered all my questions. And it was done in a very timely manner. The carrier driver was so nice. It was the week of Christmas, and I’m sure there was so much traffic. But he did it very fast. It was seamless.

The service person at AmeriFreight was very respectful, helpful and knowledgeable. She made everything easy for me shipping to California and on my return trip, because it was so easy and stress-free, I told her I was coming right back to her to assist me with the return of my vehicle, which was exactly what I did. The driver and I had a good interaction. The driver assured me that my vehicle was going to be okay going out there, which took seven days. Coming back, it was a little bit different because I wasn't in California at the time my car was picked up and neither was my son. But the driver told us where we could leave the car and he would make sure that the car was picked up at a decent time, and he did. It took six days on the return and everything was smooth. My experience was very good and if I had to, I’ll do it all over again with AmeriFreight.

The rep we talked to called me back and kept me up-to-date on what was going on and when and where, and it was very convenient for me to work around my schedule. The driver got here a day early, which threw me off. I wasn't ready for it and I had to switch some cars around in the driveway, but it was a good inconvenience. The driver was also restricted because it was five degrees out. We just tried to unload, hit a taillight lens, and it was damaged, but I didn't feel like going through the process of filing a claim. I just said, “I'll get a new lens.”

AmeriFreight gave us a window but were a little bit late. It was not critical for us though. However, they use such a big vehicle that you can't pick up at your place, and you can't drop it off at your place if you're not in a parking lot of Walmart. They also have to deflate the front tires, which I wasn't aware of. They refilled the tires but didn't have a tire gauge to check the pressure.

The rep helped me out and got in touch with the right people. Previously, I was with RoadRunner and they were terrible. I paid my deposit and had my car ready. Yet, it took so long to get my car shipped out. Whereas with Amerifreight, within four business days, my car was shipped out and I got it a day earlier than expected. I paid around 2,500 and felt that I paid a little bit too much than I should’ve, but the process was very quick. A few extra hundred dollars kind of balances out. The driver also kept us updated. He called me at the perfect time. However, the wheel fluid must have seeped out when it was being hooked up to the car and not being cared for almost a week. The weather conditions also made my steering wheel very stiff. But all in all, there were no scratches.

AmeriFreight was the most responsive of all the companies I had looked at. I talked to them, got a price quote and understood how their business model works and what they did. They work like a middleman to get you offers for different times of being shipped and prices so you can pick based on what the companies offer as pick up and drop off options. I compared their quote to a quote I got from another company and was able to get a decent deal with AmeriFreight.

Originally, I had the transport scheduled with another carrier and they apparently bid it too low. They were jerking me around every day, telling me there was nobody out there that wanted to take it yet. I finally got fed up with that, went back into the market and found AmeriFreight. I called them up and explained the situation. They told me that the quote was at least $500 too low and it could be even higher. I asked what would it take to get it done and when could they get it done. They said at a reasonable rate, they could get it done pretty quick.
AmeriFreight was able to get me somebody pretty fast. The driver picked up the car and were supposed to deliver by the 20th of January. A few days earlier than that, they called me and said they were coming into town and if I was ready in an hour. I was already out and about so I told them I could do it later that afternoon. I never heard back from them and never heard from them the next day. The following day, I heard from them. They said they were going to drop the vehicle off that night. I was a little upset. I did have to get back with the broker on a couple different occasions and let them know that this guy was not responding to my calls or texts. The broker was responsive and was honest with me when she told me how things worked over there, which is great. My problem was with the actual transport guy. But all in all, they still had it to me ahead of schedule so I was happy about that and on price.

Brandon was a pleasure to work with. He was available either by phone or text message most hours of the day. He clearly explained the process to me and circumstances. Things beyond his control include transporter reachability and initial quote. Just keep in mind that the quotes you see from any website (even the carrier themselves) is the lowest quote possible, though it's not clear when exactly the quote came from. If you need something transported quickly, keep in mind it'll likely be higher than the initial quote presented. If you need it shipped, then you need it shipped. I'd recommend Amerifreight but would give the same caveats for any carrier. Was definitely a first-time learning experience for me.

It went well with the rep. Her name was Bailey and her customer service skills were great. They got the vehicle at the delivery location a day early and the actual price ended up being cheaper than the original quote.

AmeriFreight was very helpful. We had a couple of calls to set up what the transport would be, and a couple more while I was in process. The quote was a bit lower than it ended up being, but not by too much. It seemed decent for transporting the car such a long distance.

I recently needed to move another vehicle from New York to Florida. Since I had a previous relationship with AmeriFreight, I reached out to them by email and phone. They said that I might get a discount because I was a repeat customer. The agent that picked up my email started explaining the process to me and then said that because I've worked with Harry before, he'd hand me off to Harry, which was seamless. What was great was they didn't just say, “Oh, Harry's your guy. You'll have to wait for him to call you back.” They actually started to work on it. The communication was very effective.
AmeriFreight is acting like a broker and they post things to the big board, and then drivers bid on it, which I ended up learning more about how this works. Also, what I found is this is a little bit of a commodity. All brokers do that, unless somehow you're working with the broker shipper and they do it in-house. But this is not an in-house shipping company. It was some third party.
There was a mix-up with the title of the vehicle because it was handed to the driver and somebody somewhere in the process, which was nothing to do with AmeriFreight. Since it was purchased from an auction house, the people at that auction house should not have given the title to the driver. It was supposed to come in the mail to me later and so I ended up having to mail the title back. There was another complication here because I was working with a broker on the auction side in order to buy it from the auction because I don't have a dealer's license and then I had to work with AmeriFreight as a broker to figure out the best way to ship it. Then one of the challenges when working with an auction house is that the driver may have to sit there for up to two hours to get all the paperwork. The driver never complained about any of that or never asked for more money, and so whatever driver did the job, they were good about it.
The other thing is that the way these systems typically work is you pay AmeriFreight a deposit with a credit card and then to get “the best deal,” you pay the driver cash on delivery. My instincts tell me AmeriFreight keeps the credit card payment deposit and the driver keeps the cash and that gives some sense of where the monies are going. In my example, it was $1,200 shipping fee. The whole cost was $1,200. Approximately 300 was the AmeriFreight deposit, and the driver was given 900 in cash. 25% for the brokerage fee is pretty hefty. But they were the correct rate. I had quoted with other companies and they came in at the same price.
The key to a first-time person who has never shipped a vehicle before is to understand the difference between working with a shipping broker versus working with a shipping carrier. If he's able to speak directly with the company that owns the trucks and pays the drivers, then it may result in different expectations than if he's working with a company like AmeriFreight that is in the business of going and finding the best driver at the time.

The rep from AmeriFreight was super easy to talk to and it was a smooth experience. She was upfront in saying that the initial quote of 1,100 would go higher depending upon which freight company picked it up. We figured it would be around 1,400, and it was 1,500. It was all within the range that we were expecting. The transport took about three days. The driver called when he came to pick up in Washington and also when he dropped off in Colorado. The truck broke down but they were able to still get us the vehicle on the same day. They got us our truck in good health at a fast rate. I wish the pricing was a little bit cheaper but I understand. I wish it was closer to $1,000 rather than 1,500 but it is what it is.

I was very satisfied. Working with AmeriFreight was good. The rep I worked with, Danielle, was phenomenal. She kept in touch, kept us informed along the way, making sure everything went well. Even after the car was picked up and shipped, she wanted to know if everything went well, if it arrived okay. It was picked up on time. It arrived earlier than we thought. The experience was very good, overall. I've had used them in the past to ship a prior vehicle from Ohio to New York and that experience was good also. Although, we were under the impression that it would have cost us about under $1,000 shipping a car. I understand, due to the situation, economy-wise and the route that changed. But at the same time, it's over our budget.

I genuinely had a positive experience with AmeriFreight. The prices were fair. The final price was more expensive. But in the end, I agreed, because I needed the car to get shipped as quickly as possible. I didn't want to wait. This was why we offered a little bit more to make the offer attractive to the carriers. But they were transparent with it. They were saying, “This is the amount that we are being paid for that service. This is the amount that will go to the carrier. You'll pay it when you receive the car.”
Also, my first contact with them, when I called, was very good. They were explaining the process. I didn't have to pay before a carrier was found. There was no money transfer. They took the car on Saturday, and then it arrived here on Wednesday. It was quick. The driver took the car to a friend’s palace back in Arizona. He was on top of things. He helped me put the car in the garage. So that was good because the car was not running. I would use AmeriFreight again.

Everything was good as far as setting up. The process of AmeriFreight was fine, once I understood everything. I've never done this before. So I did not understand at the time what the overall cost was going to include and that was the only complaint that I had. But the shipping went okay. There was an issue with the picking up, though. They were supposed to pick up on a certain day and they didn't pick up until three days later. I was buying from someone that was selling their house, and the car was in their house that was being sold. They needed to evacuate the house to make sure everything was cleaned out.
Luckily, I had given a range of dates to pick up. But the person was not near there, they had to drive a couple of hours to get there. They were there expecting to pick up the car and no one showed up and contacted them. Then finally, the Realtor had to be there to make sure that the car was picked up 'cause the home had been sold already. Every time that I called the number that I was given, they would call the person that they were picking the car from. I was getting information back from the seller of the car, not from the driver or the company.

The car pickup and drop off were a bit of a mess, but I cannot fault someone for mechanical and weather issues. I will say the booking part was misleading on the cost. The agent was excited that the car transport was listed at ~$500, but then I ended up paying the driver $600 and >$300 for the commission fee to Amerifreight. I wish the costs would have been more transparent upfront so I could plan accordingly and maybe choose a different driver/option.

I liked AmeriFreight. They had good reviews and I could understand them. It was plain English. It wasn't somebody out of Miami. It was really easy to talk to them. The customer service representative was very nice, explained everything. I read a lot of issues regarding some companies giving you one price, and then they're like, "We need another couple hundred." So, it was a locked-out price pretty much. I paid a little more than I could pay somewhere else, but I had pretty good peace of mind with this company. They were local, too. The driver was from Ukraine. He was a little hard to understand. He was a day late. But on the other hand, he was picking up other vehicles, trying to make a buck. So, it didn't bother me. I was pretty happy with this company.

I talked to AmeriFreight to get things set up and the guy that I dealt on their end was fantastic. He was super helpful, did everything that he could and everything was really quick. However, I had to talk to the company that did the tow, and their customer service was crap. The driver that was hired, first off, wasn't able to do his own work, and it cost me a lot of money and a massive amount of a hassle having to supply my people, friends and family to do most of his job. My mother had to miss part of a day of work and I had to have another friend come over as well.
The driver's truck and trailer equipment were absolute crap. His truck was completely destroyed, windows busted out and I don't even think it should be on the road. His trailer, I had to have people here to pick up and lower the ramp of the trailer because it wasn't properly operational. He also didn't have ways to get my car off the trailer, so I had to have people here to help push it off the trailer. And he would only help as far as to get it into the middle of the driveway. Now, the car is blocking the driveway and I have to have a tow truck come to move it out of the way from where he put it. It was absolutely horrendous, one of the worst experiences I've ever had to deal with.
Every time I kept telling the guy, “Hey, it's not my responsibility to do y’all’s job. It's not my fault y’all’s equipment isn't working properly, so I shouldn't have to be paying full price when y’all’s equipment is the stuff that's crap.” When I told the company that did the tow I wanted the price cut down a couple hundred bucks, they threw a big conniption and threatened calling the cops on me. 9 times out of 10 whenever I talked to them, I couldn’t understand them. They were speaking some sort of Baltic language to us.
I could have just had my guy help get my car off the trailer and then said, “Screw them,” not raise the ramp back up. One guy wouldn't be able to do it by himself, so they would've had to bring another driver all the way from California to get the ramp up. At that point, I could have just told the guy, “Okay. If you want help getting the ramp up, I got a supply of people. That’s gonna be $500 right there. Pay up right now.” Overall, working with AmeriFreight was plenty good. Just be wary of the transport people.

They were easy to work with the first time I called. They were responsive every time I called with a question or an update to what I was trying to do with the shipment. They passed me off to the driver who kept in communication daily. But I wish I had more notice on when I could have expected a driver to pick up my car. They told me it would two to three days before the actual pickup. But because I was moving, I had to have the car picked up at a certain time and date. If it didn't happen, it would have messed up the whole move plan. So, it was like, “Hey, we can’t guarantee you a contractor is going to pick your car up but we think one will.” It was weird. But, this is definitely the company I would do business with again if I needed to move any kind of goods or service.

Samantha was phenomenal. It felt like I was talking to a friend. She did the legwork for me. She answered questions before I even asked the question. When she was getting off work, she said, “Let me give you my colleague’s name. She can take care of you. I'm getting off work. Then I'll pick you up in the morning and follow up.” And she definitely did.
The driver was great, too. He picked up the phone when I called. He called me back when we missed one call. He was right where he said he would be when he said. Because at first, he was a little bit delayed because of traffic. He called to say, “I just want you to know I’m about this far out. I’ll call you when I get about 15 minutes away so you can meet me.” AmeriFreight lived up to what they said. They said it would take about this long and it was exactly about that long. Everybody was courteous, friendly and informative. I didn't feel like I had to search for any information. They did that and handled all of that for me. It was pretty seamless. We will absolutely use AmeriFreight again.

I was pleased overall with AmeriFreight. It was a little bit of a black box. I had never done it before. I also knew that we weren't exactly the most common thing. We weren’t just shipping a plain car or an automobile. So I knew it was going to be a little bit awkward. But the people I talked to didn't try to blow smoke, “It's gonna be super easy. It'll be great.” But they did a great job of placing the shipping. They were very quick. The pickup needs to be within a two-day window and they were able to meet that requirement and to line up a shipment within a very narrow window. The shipper was excellent. Perfectly on time. Perfectly delivered. Everything was in great order all the way through. It was also a very nice personal touch. I actually got to talk with a human being, which is not that common these days.

I transported a Hyundai for 3,000 miles via AmeriFreight. They got back to me the fastest and initially, they had the cheapest quote, but it ended up being the same price as everyone else's. Aside from that, the people at AmeriFreight were excellent. I worked with Cindy and she was knowledgeable. I was going to do a motorcycle and a car, then I pushed it and I changed the location, and she always said there was no problem and got to me fairly fast with the new updated quote.
But the company that actually shipped my car was horrible. I had to continuously call them and nobody preemptively told me anything so everything I learned was all because I investigated it. Then, it was very hard to get in contact with them as no one was answering. Every time someone called me or if someone picked up the phone, they'd say that someone would call me later. I also couldn't even get the right person on the phone. Every time someone called me, it was from a new number and person. So, it was complicated all around and it was really frustrating.
Aside from that, they were supposed to come either Monday or Tuesday to pick up my car and I was hounding them because I was not even in the area. So I had to have someone waiting on me who was waiting on them and I had people asking me when were they going to be there and I didn't know because I couldn't get in contact with them. That was a scheduling nightmare for me personally and they ended up coming on Wednesday. It was supposed to be between one or two days, and they came on a day later than even that. But it wasn't AmeriFreight’s fault.
Then, I had to meet the driver for the delivery and my vehicle arrived in the exact number of days they said it would. The final cost was very expensive. I paid 1,700 and that sucks, but it was competitive and there wasn't another service that could have done it for less. And that was not AmeriFreight’s fault. It's because of the inflation right now and the cost of gas. Two years ago, I shipped a Range Rover from the same place to exactly the same destination and it cost 1,200. A Range Rover is the heaviest car in the market and it's worth $40,000 more than the car that I recently transported through AmeriFreight.

The only thing I would change is the beginning quote is different than the price, because they have the finder's fee. Still, it was a good price.

AmeriFreight quoted me a pretty good price and they were really friendly and helpful.

The rep that I dealt with was very helpful and communicative. She was awesome. But there was almost a 40% increase from the initial quote. It was very shocking to see what the markup was. I did get a general email saying that there were driver shortages. So there should be a little bit more transparency on the driver shortage and what percent that might be affecting these quotes. Or instead of giving a very specific quote, a quote range would be more helpful for budgeting purposes. Also, there were a few delays with thinking the vehicle was going to show up a certain time, and then it showed up a day later. The driver had run into a flat tire and some other drop-off. But overall, it was a good experience.

My sister-in-law recommended Amerifreight because she used them and it was good. I ended up getting a military discount so it was even better. The rep was very nice. I felt I was bothering her a little too much ‘cause I've never shipped a car but she was able to answer my questions and pick up or email me back very quickly. Her checking up on me made the whole move less stressful. I didn't have to worry about it as much. She was also nice enough to give me the driver's number and was able to keep contact with him, too.
The driver tried to keep me updated with where they were and an estimate on what time he would get here. It was my car alone so I didn't worry about it getting shipped with other cars or a rock hitting the windshield 'cause I knew it was covered. The car got here perfectly within two days. They were super quick, especially in such a short notice. The only thing I had to complain about was the pickup date. My mother-in-law was the one handing the key over to the guy who was picking it up. I was told it was going to be the day before I was leaving but there was a mix-up. The man ended up coming by early in the morning. Luckily, they were nice enough to understand that it was my mother-in-law and she was going to be the one giving the key off. I definitely would use the company again or recommend it to my friends that are moving too.

The rep explained everything regarding the process. Everything was smooth with respect to the pick-up and drop-off of my vehicle. I called the driver to schedule the pick-up and after my car was picked up, I was in contact with him regarding the status of where he was on his route. During the pick-up at the destination, he contacted me that he was nearby and I went there and picked up my vehicle. It's a trustworthy service from AmeriFreight. I would recommend them.

AmeriFreight did a great job of providing a quote and scheduling the transport of my autos (2 trucks and a classic bug) across the country. The vehicles were delivered on time, as promised. However, a few weeks after the delivery, I noticed that the hood of the bug had been damaged and dented, and apparently someone had tried to hammer out the dent. Fixing the damage will require some bodywork and new paint. Unfortunately, this wasn't noticed by me at the time of delivery, so I'm out of luck for any reimbursement. This problem was not the fault of AmeriFreight, but it was dishonest of the hauler they hired to hide the damage and not to tell me about it. So, understand that AmeriFreight hires out the transport of your vehicle to haulers. The haulers, apparently, do not take responsibility for their work.

We were under a tight, tight timeframe to get the car transported so the stakes were high. Our experience with AmeriFright was totally good. I got a really nice lady on the phone and she handled my fears and explained what it is they do. She explained that they're a market intermediary and they interface between truck drivers and the public. They understand what you want and then they put it up for a bid. She said, “Okay, let me take down what you need and we'll put that in the quote, and we'll see what comes up.”
She gave me a quote and I thought, “Oh, that can't be. This is too cheap.” I want to pay the market standard amount so I get the full service I'm asking for. So I said that to her. I said, “What's missing here?” And she said, “Nothing's missing. This is the quote. We got it from a supplier in California, a trucker here.” And I said, “Okay. So this is the date I want the car. Is that clear?” And she said, “Yes.”
I gulped and paid the full amount upfront. It freaks me out that I have to pay the full amount upfront or come with a check. I have to come with cash in hand to meet the truck driver at the destination. That seemed crazy and I didn't want to do that. I wanted them to be on the hook to deliver my car by paying them upfront. I preferred to pay upfront on Visa even though it was a little more. At least I had the protection of Visa and my particular card gives me 2% back so it ended up being a premium of 4%, which I swallowed. It was okay because then I know if they don't deliver, I could call up Visa and get them on it and they would do something for me.
In addition to my standard service, I wanted Auto-Protect Plus, which is where they basically give you a little insurance policy. If your car is damaged, they will pay that damage. The pay upfront and the extra special insurance ended up being another $250. The total bill was around 1,650 to have my car transported across the country. This was not a fee I relished paying, but I had to do it and it solved my problem.
Millie, my contact at AmeriFreight, said, “I'm now going to turn over your communication to CA Car Transport”. On my own initiative, I called them up. English was not their first language, which is why they probably make use of AmeriFreight. But they were very polite. They said, “What's your order number?” They looked it up and they said, “Yup, yup. We see it. You're going to get a call from the driver in two days.”
After that call, I got a call. The man said, “Hello. This is your driver for your car.” He said, “Yeah, I'm in New York State. I've got a couple of drop-offs and then I'll be over to see you. It'll be around dinner time. And they're going to tell you where to meet me.” The office called me and said exactly where to meet him, which was in a shopping mall. And I couldn't believe they picked that place because it's a very busy grocery store parking lot. So I'm sitting there in the parking area and lo and behold, this guy Steve drives in with this gigantic truck. It was like watching a cruise liner pull into a pond.” And he said to me, “Who picked this place?” And I said, “Talk to your office.” He was driving this enormous thing totally expertly and he told me what I needed to do, which was to line up and he would drive the car on the truck. He gets my keys, we sign the paperwork, and he drives it on the truck. Within 15 minutes, he was gone.

I looked up online and found several companies and got some quotes online to have a vehicle transported. We were living in Virginia and we moved with the military to Florida.

Their representative was great. The only thing was the initial quote was about a grand and then a couple of weeks later, I booked it and it went up to $1,600. She was saying it's because of gas prices. I didn't really push back too hard, but I really can't contribute that to being her fault.
The driver was great. There was an issue with getting the vehicle to move freely after being parked for three years in the same spot. The driver went above and beyond getting it loaded and unloaded and worked with us because I wasn't physically there. He was very helpful because I was out of town doing some training.

Summary: A moving agent that scams consumers into thinking they are getting a good rate, then switching them out when we are in the busy midst of moving. I chose Amerifreight after sourcing a few different mover agencies. I chose Amerifreight because I was quoted $1176, somewhat lower than other providers. Two days before the move however I was told I would have to pay $1650 cash, or slightly more with card. This is a 40% more than the original quote despite there being no changes in moving details.
I was already in the middle of moving, and did not have the time any more to find a different mover. So I just paid the money and went with them. I understand that they do not control the final price and a little variance is generally acceptable, but they must still honor the price they quote.

And I appreciate your honesty.” And she said, “Do you want me to roll with it?” “Make it happen.” I've probably talked to her on the phone half a dozen times through this process. She called and said, “I want to let you know who your driver is. I want to let you know who the company is that’s moving the car. I want to tell you what their rating is and how well they're insured.” She went through the whole thing with me.
It was so effortless. But even the driver that the company that we used that she lined us up with went above and beyond. He stayed in contact with me, called me a couple of times while the car's being transported, called me at his halfway point. Said, “Yeah. I'm about halfway out from your location.” He said, “I picked the closes dealership to your house. I wanted to make it easy on you.” I said, “A good friend of mine owns the Chevrolet dealership right across the street. I'm not going to be able to get the car. My wife can meet you up there. But would you mind dropping it at that Chevrolet dealership? I'll call Mike right now and see if that's okay. Then we can leave the car there until we get off work this evening to pick it up.”
He asked, “What's that address?” And I said, “Well, I don't know the address. I just know the name of the dealership.” He said, “It didn't come up on my GPS when I was looking for different places to drop. If you can give me an address, call me back.” So I got him the address. I called him back. But when I did, he was pulling up. He said, “Oh, yeah. I found it.” And, “Man, I’ll help you out any way I can help you out. You want me to drop it across the street? That's perfectly fine. I'll make it happen.” The driver and the people at AmeriFreight were awesome. It was the smoothest thing I've ever done.

The AmeriFreight representatives got good communication and follow through. The experience with them went very smoothly. The pickup and delivery of my car went okay. I got a call from the driver that he wanted me to bring the car to him, which worked out okay. He got me an Uber back to the house, but it was not picked up at the house as it had been described. It was less convenient for them. He thought that he could not get into a residential street with a semi-truck, but that's not true. But it worked out fine. It's a fair price, too.

Dealing with Benjamin was amazing. He was the main salesperson I dealt with, and he was absolutely A+. Unfortunately, one day, I spoke to somebody else and she was horrendous. I complained about her and I would not have her on the line. She had poor attitude, was not good with customers, and got in my face a bit. Benjamin said that the pickup was going to be one of these two days, and she then intervened somehow and said, "No, we can't. I'm sorry. You are wrong. There's no one that could have told you." I was apoplectic and worried. With the way this woman acted, I thought I was dealing with a shady group and I was gonna axe the deal.
I got Benjamin back on and he said, "No, it was a misunderstanding. Let me take care of it." I said, "Okay." "It's gonna come this day or that day, just like we said. This is the price." Everything else was done great. What he quoted was exactly what I paid, so it's fabulous. The transport was from Texas to Georgia, and it came on time, in the morning. I was thrilled. Benjamin gave me the guy's telephone number, and I met him at a Walmart parking lot 'cause he had a big truck. I gave him the cash, and the hand-off was perfect. Use Benjamin if you use AmeriFreight. Don't use anybody else.

AmeriFreight had a competitive price and I liked the way they explained the process, namely that it's an auction-based one. They can't guarantee the price but they try to start at the lowest and try to find a freight company that will accept the job at that rate. Sometimes, they get a counteroffer. That was how AmeriFreight handled the process, which was transparent, so I ended up using them twice. But their fee was steep. I bought two old cars and had them shipped at the same time. The cost was $2,400. 1,900 was for the freight company and 500 was for AmeriFreight. They are a broker and that was very expensive. But maybe they're way cheaper than all other brokers. I don't know the industry so I don't want to slam them. They were very nice and they did the things that we conventionally know about, like customer service representatives calling you back. They were in touch with me and followed up.

AmeriFreight provided really great customer service. The people I spoke with each time were very knowledgeable and understood what I needed and wanted to do and the amount of money I wanted to spend. They told me upfront all about the pricing, the insurance, and how they pick their carriers. I needed a specific date and they walked me through how I could lock in that date and what the price would be as compared to if I had a bigger window so that I could make that decision myself, that I wanted to spend the extra money and lock in a particular date. Everything was so upfront and aboveboard. They were very honest with me which I appreciated.
The driver called a day in advance and told us what time that he would be there. He arrived on time, was extremely friendly, and treated our cars well. He told us about when we could anticipate delivery. On that day, he called and texted us that he got stuck in traffic and he'd be too late. We didn't want the cars to arrive after dark and he understood that so he brought them out the next morning. He called and told us he was on his way and about what time he’d arrive. Truthfully, it was a little bit higher than we had wanted to spend. But considering the service we got, we would recommend them to anybody.

Originally, I worked with one lady who was a military veteran. She was very upbeat and very friendly. She lasted a couple of weeks, then she quit and moved on. So I got her boss as a replacement. They seemed to answer all the questions correctly and they did the job. At the time, we were moving, so we had to make the timing of the move coincide with our containers arriving and that we'd have a vehicle here in Florida to be able to handle the containers. We still had to rent a car, but that only was for a week and it wasn't too bad.
During the transport, I tracked them because I have tracking capability on the Mercedes. I could see where they were staying in Tallahassee for a few days but it wasn't really very clear. It wasn't very good tracking and they didn't tell me where they were. All in all, I was disappointed that I lost my first contact as I had a rapport going with her, but things worked out great with AmeriFreight.

But then when the actual carrier showed up, they only wanted me to use Zelle or bring cash. I thought that a credit card was going to be okay. I was out of town at the moment, so I pulled over on the side of a freeway trying to enable a Zelle account at my credit union. That part was a huge pain, and I hate those guys. I was getting some mixed signals on when the vehicle was going to arrive. They said first it was gonna be Friday. Then, because of the weather, they said they were gonna delay it until Monday.

During the delivery, someone else picked the car up for me and the driver was very flexible with the contact who picked it up.
The initial quote that I filled out on the website was $300 less than what the actual quote ended up being. But they were very clear that the first one was just the preliminary quote. Also, even the final quote ended up being less than the other quotes that I had received from other companies.

Since I moved to another state, I thought it would be better for me to ship my car here and according to the rating score on the website, AmeriFreight was rated the second one and they were famous for their low price. So, I decided to choose them. Their rep was very helpful and responsive. She found the suitable driver and let me know about that.
The only concern I have is that I received an email after the quote and the email included three prices. The first one was the lowest price, the second one was economy, and the third one was the premium. So, I chose the lowest price, which was around a little bit more than 1,000. I know the final price will not be that low but when I shipped my car, the price the driver offered was more than $2,000. I totally understand that the price on the market would change according to different drivers and the situation. But the difference between the price shown to me and the price that would finally be requested by the driver was too big. In that way, I may choose another company and there would not be any difference because the price was all controlled by the drivers. The difference made me feel that AmeriFreight was not that cheap, which was the first reason I chose this company.
Other than that, the pickup and delivery went were good. I couldn't load more than 100 pounds of stuff in my car, so I just weighed every stuff on my car and ensured that my stuff would be around 100 pounds. I only put two boxes in lower the window and the backseat, plus the ones in the trunk. But when the driver opened my trunk, he said that if I didn't pay another $100, he couldn't accept this. He thought it was more than 100 pounds. In the end, the shipment took about six days and my car was shipped in front of my door directly.

Cost-wise, AmeriFreight was pretty comparable to everyone else. Then there were a couple others that would have been without the service fee, but I felt that their price was fair. They dropped my vehicle right at the front door and the only thing that was an issue in the beginning was that the driver was supposed to pick it up on Saturday. But something came up so the driver wasn’t able to get there on that day. And he didn't pick it up until Monday and by then, I was already on the road. So I wasn't there when he picked it up.

I did some research online, found Car Talk, and Car Talk recommended AmeriFreight among other ones. I looked at all those recommendations and decided on that. I had to transport my vehicle from Pittsburgh to San Diego and I had to do it within a pretty tight timeframe. Plus, my vehicle was only available for a couple of days before I had to move out. AmeriFreight's reps answered my questions well and it was a relatively straightforward process to reach out to them and get a quote.
The worst part of it was that they underquoted me significantly, by about 70%. They quoted me about a grand, then once my car was on the market and I was out of time because it was only a couple days before I had to fly out of town, they told me that there was an offer of 1,900. I told them that was too much and a day later, they said it would be 1,700. I asked them if I should take this as it seemed a lot more and they said that was just how it was for California. I was also without recourse at that time, so I took it.
Other than that, I was pleased with their service. I had the car delivered to my parents’ place and they were the ones who interacted with the driver. I didn't receive any calls or texts from the driver and I don't think that my folks did either. But I expected that he would arrive at a time that he said he would and he did. I'm also happy that my car made it safely and without any scuffs. And everyone was very polite and professional, which I appreciated. But it cost me a lot more than I was looking to spend.
