Good advice. I had my 240D shipped from Mississippi to Delaware in August and it was effortless only because my wife's employer handled all of the details. DAS was the company they used and they did a good job getting the car here in one piece.

4. Look at their rating (like Ebay)
5. Some have Cargo insurance Some don't You decide
6. Go online and fill out a Uniform Bill of Lading from a template. Use that to transport vehicle not drivers Bill of Lading which may contain bad language not favorable to you.
7. Write your ad carefully spelling out what you expect to be done and when.
