    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.

    Mercury Transport has coordinated two vehicle shipments for us, both with Brian ** who went above and beyond for us with both transports. The communication was excellent, the process was tightly organized, we received the car exactly as agreed, on time, in perfect condition. Cannot be more pleased with this experience and will only refer Mercury and Brian for all of my future transports and further that I need as well.

      I needed to ship my car from Boston to Boise. Started my search about 1 month in advance (!), decided to go with Mercury Auto Transport based on the reviews, quote and responsiveness of the person assigned to me. Long story short, on my shipment day(s) window I was told that no drivers available. The manager politely apologized. I am sure that I will not go back to Mercury Auto Transport for my car shipping needs. Sorry.

They assisted in trying to get the rates to the best affordable as possible and constantly communicated with me either via email or text or phone calls. I was always in communication with them.

      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.

Drew was incredibly responsive to all my calls and messages, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I had a tight pickup window that I was concerned about, but Drew quickly found a driver based out of Denver who was able to commit to my schedule.

      I had a great experience working with Mercury Auto Transport. From the very beginning, they were completely transparent about pricing and delivery timelines. The pickup process was seamless and happened almost immediately after my initial inquiry. Throughout the transport from California to New York, communication was clear and consistent, and my car arrived ahead of schedule in excellent condition. My driver even went above and beyond to accommodate my schedule—delivering the car right on time, despite busy 8th Avenue traffic in New York City. Overall, I highly recommend Mercury Auto Transport for their reliability, transparency, and great value. I’ll definitely use them again if I ever need to ship my car in the future.
