      I had contacted another company who gladly took a $400 deposit and then ceased communicating with me. We were forced to move from CA to VA with our car stuck in CA with no idea of when it would be moved. I called Mercury and Mark Anthony answered. He briefed me on the process, pitfalls and expectations of the current market. He explained the business model. He was up front, honest and contacted me no less than 3 times a day over the course of a 5 day period providing me updates until a carrier was contracted for our car…including personally calling me on a Sunday to finalize the contract to ensure we didn’t lose a carrier option. Mark provided old school service that put the consumer first. If you call Mercury and Mark answers…he is going to work for you.

      Mercury Auto Transport used a bait-and-switch tactic in my experience. They told me a driver was ready and asked me to sign the paperwork, but refused to provide the driver’s name, phone number, or any actual dispatch details, repeatedly saying the information would arrive “soon.” The driver details never arrived. When I asked to cancel, they charged a dispatch fee, claiming that a driver had already been dispatched—even though they never provided any proof that a real driver had been assigned. It felt like a trick to keep me committed so I could not book with another company that actually had a confirmed driver. Be very careful before signing anything or paying a dispatch fee unless they first provide verifiable driver details.

      Response from Mercury Auto Transport

      We categorically reject the suggestion that Mercury Auto Transport engaged in "bait-and-switch" tactics. Bait-and-switch occurs when a customer is induced to enter an agreement with one offer and is then pressured into accepting a different, less favorable one. That did not occur here. An independent carrier was secured and dispatched at the agreed terms before cancellation. The applicable broker fee was retained in accordance with the accepted Terms and Conditions.

      I booked with this company more than 4 months in advance, and the evening before, they text me and say it's going to be 2.5 times the price as quoted. Then, I call their bluff and find someone last-minute willing to do it for WAY less, and they cancel my order without my approval. Just a horrible company that is untrustworthy and will gouge you at the last minute.

      We're sorry your experience didn't meet your expectations. Mercury Auto Transport does not set carrier rates or own the trucks that transport vehicles. Our quotes are estimates based on market conditions, and customers are never obligated to accept a revised estimate if the market changes. We respectfully disagree with the characterization that Mercury engages in price gouging or untrustworthy business practices.

      I was nervous about shipping my car because I've heard about a lot of fraudulent companies, but things worked out fine with Mercury Auto Transport. They quoted a price which was better than 90% of the other quotes I received, and they had an A rating with BBB, which most of the lower priced companies didn't. They were able to identify a carrier for the price they quoted within an hour or two. They gave me all the details to prepare my car for shipping, and the pickup time and drop off time were within the estimates provided. The ship time ended up being 2 days faster than other companies had quoted. My car made it in one piece. No damage and no other issues.

      We worked with Mercury Auto Transport to ship our car from Los Angeles, CA to Philadelphia, PA, and everything went very smoothly. Drew from Mercury helped us find a carrier quickly that matched our preferred date, even though we only provided a three day window. The quote we received was accurate, and the final price was right in line with what was discussed.

      The transport itself was faster than expected. We shipped the car on a Friday and received it by Tuesday, even though the initial estimate was 6-7 days. Both Drew from Mercury and Jaffar from the carrier communicated clearly and gave us accurate pickup and drop-off times. The inspection was quick, everything was noted on the Bill of Lading, and we were allowed to keep items up to 100 lbs in the trunk (with a reminder that any excess weight could be removed at the weigh-in).

      The car arrived safely. It was a little dusty and the tires had slightly lower pressure (around 25 PSI), but that's completely normal after traveling cross-country through different climates. Overall, we're very happy with how everything went: great communication, fair pricing, and fast delivery. We'd definitely recommend Mercury Auto Transport to anyone planning to move their vehicle.

      I’m so glad I chose Mercury Auto Transport! The whole process went so smoothly. I purchased a vehicle out of state and needed a coast-to-coast transport to ship my car from New Jersey to Las Vegas. I saw someone mention Mercury on Reddit. I decided to give it a try. I submitted my information on their website, and agent Luis reached out to me soon after. We had a call the next day — Luis was professional and very helpful. He quickly found me a driver, but I had to reschedule the pickup because my friend in New Jersey wouldn’t be available. Luis immediately responded and, just two days later, found another driver who could meet my new pickup date.

      All of the follow-up emails and messages were timely and included clear, detailed instructions. The driver, Frank, was very accommodating and communicative. He called both me and my friend before arriving to coordinate the pickup spot. He loaded the car onto his truck smoothly. He arrived in Las Vegas one day earlier than expected. We discussed the delivery time and location, and by the time I arrived, he had already unloaded my car. My car was safe and no scratches. I paid the driver his portion upon delivery (the broker fee was paid earlier to Mercury). No hidden fees, everything was transparent and easy. Car shipping can be nerve-wrecking. I would absolutely recommend Mercury Auto Transport, agent Luis, and driver Frank to anyone looking for a reliable car shipping experience.

      Well, I met Mitch online and everything seemed legit so I booked with him as a broker. I needed 1 car transported and then changed to 2, each going to a different area in Florida. It was a month in advance and he told me the carriers will not start to contact him until a week out! As the time got closer, there were no carriers asking. I was moving out of state, so I needed this done since I had nowhere to put the cars. The day before the move, I was pretty nuts because we were leaving and had no carrier.

      I told Mitch to see if it's easier to send both cars to same area. He found someone and said they would pick up the cars the next day between 10-12 am. We packed up the truck, carrier never came so had to leave cars with a neighbor and had no answers! I was texting constantly with Mitch and he was saying by 2, by 5 and on and on. We reached Fl and all my clothes and meds were in the car and I had nothing! I was out of my mind, had to go to Walmart and get clothes etc. Mitch the broker and the foreign dispatcher had gone for the day and I was screwed!

      I had an idea to call the fulfillment center and got a receptionist of all people who really knew her shit! I told Carol everything and she had the driver, Lucas on the phone in 5 minutes, who Mitch and Alex (dispatcher) couldn’t bother to contact! Lucas called me and he was the carrier owner and told me everything that had gone on that day and he never gave them a time since he was waiting for his truck! He then apologized sincerely for Alex and said he will be getting the cars at 7:30 and could not get them to me until the day after pickup, so 2 more days without a car!

      He said he never told them a time and they shouldn’t have promised one and he was so angry when he knew what they put me through. Stopped texting me completely and what the broker charged me for his cut! I am very thankful to Carol and she should have Mitch’s job! Even though I didn’t have my cars, at least she took a huge load off by letting me know what was going on and putting me in touch with Lucas!

He explained how the system worked up front and what their commission was and the overall price they were negotiating with the trucking companies.

      After spending about 3 weeks researching the process of shipping a car from Washington to Ohio, submitting requests for quotes to a handful of brokers and ultimately having a phone call with two brokers, I chose to depend on Michael ** to find a reputable and reliable carrier to move my car across the country. The documents and video shared by Michael about the process helped me to better understand how all the steps in the process worked and why some of the other, lower quotes I had received may not have been realistic. Once I placed my order to engage a carrier it took 5 days to identify the carrier. Michael schedule the pickup on the date I had chosen which was 2 days later and my car arrived after 3 more days, which was a whole week earlier than estimate. Thankfully, I was home and able to meet the driver for pickup.

      Michael provided me all of the information about the transportation company after the engagement was set up, so I worked directly with the driver to coordinate the pickup and drop off locations and times. Although the initial driver was changed, I believe by the transportation company, the communications were clear and detailed. I received update each day while the search was on, and in the end, I was very happy to have the car ahead of the forecasted arrival date. Thanks very much for all of your assistance. If I do this again, I will save myself the trouble of evaluating all the other options and start with Michael and Mercury Auto Transport!

      I used this company to transport my vehicle from Florida to Connecticut. Initially, they were great to work with—professional and responsive—up until the deposit was received to lock in the pickup date. After that, communication significantly dropped off. I was given a pickup date and told that there were no other customers scheduled for that day, so a morning pickup should be no problem (which was important because I had a flight that afternoon). However, they wouldn’t officially confirm the appointment until two days prior and said they would email me to confirm. That confirmation never came.

      Starting on Friday, I reached out multiple times via phone, text, and email with no response. On the morning of the scheduled pickup, I finally received a call—only to be told they couldn’t make it that morning and would try for the afternoon. Again, no follow-up communication unless I initiated it. Eventually, I was informed the car wouldn’t be picked up until the following day. By then, I had already left, and a neighbor had to step in and handle the handoff.

      The initial estimate I was given was $719, which I agreed to when I booked. However, I was later charged $1,000. At that point, I had no other option since it was too late to make other arrangements. I was told the car would be delivered in two days, and someone would reach out 2–4 hours before delivery. We arranged for someone to be available to pay the remaining balance and receive the vehicle. After numerous attempts to confirm the time, we were finally informed—at 4 PM—that delivery would be delayed until the next morning. I feel misled by the polite and reassuring communication at the beginning. Unless you have a very flexible schedule and are okay with paying more than the quoted estimate, I would not recommend this company.

      Our experience with "Mercury Auto Transports" and our agent "Logan" was very smooth from beginning to the end. Great communication, excellent follow up by email and text. We were really happy to receive all the information on the process involved, the tips and checklists. The price quoted was very fair and reasonable. The driver that was lined up for our pickup and delivery was in direct contact and his estimated time for pickup and delivery was right on! We just received our vehicle yesterday morning in great shape. Very thankful!

      I had decided to move across the country and since I was on a tight timeline driving my car was not a great option for me so I contacted Mercury to help me with this. I had a great experience with them when I had originally moved out to Vegas the year before so they were the fist people I called when I wanted to move back. Every interaction I had with them was amazing. They got my car to me quickly and with no damage.

      Mercury Auto transport was very helpful in getting my car shipped from Virginia to Florida. Logan worked very quickly (like less than two days) to get my car with a transporter. He was very responsive by email and text and kept me informed each day about the getting a carrier secured. It was such a relief to know my car will get to Florida in the right time frame. Moreover Logan and the other staff from Mercury were kind, he treated me with respect and desktop get the job done. Kindness goes a long way in this kind of business and I look forward to using Mercury Auto again in the future.

      I am very pleased with the service Mercury Auto Transport and UB Transportation LLC provided to me. They helped me to ship my Toyota Highlander from Austin, Texas to Beaufort South Carolina. I had very good communication on the phone during the whole process with Spencer ** at Mercury Auto Transport and also by text and email. UB Transportation LLC also did a great job by delivering the car a day early on a Sunday which worked out perfectly for the receiving person. I sure recommend Mercury Auto Transport to trust your car.
