I used Wareham Auto Transport (out of the MANY) quotes I recieved mainly because of the honest / no-nonsense approach of the sales manager, Tony Frick. I hold a CDL and know the load boards - Tony and I talked about exactly what his brokerage fee would be and exactly where that would put my Jeep in the "vehicles open for tansport" price queue. I selected a total price (much! lower than some other quotes, by the way) that put my Jeep near the top of the pricing structure for loads headed north. B and C Trucking from Spokane, WA got the load, picked up my Jeep the next morning!, and delivered the Jeep (one day early) that Saturday afternoon in great condition. Saved me a trip to Texas and back.

Bob and Connie from B&C Trucking were great to deal with! - they kept us informed on exactly where Bob was with the car carrier and gave us an updated delivery time/schedule frequently since we met Bob to unload / pick up the Jeep. Great folks! I would ship any vehicle with them anytime! Can't say more than that. Bob has been hauling over the road for many years and was very knowledgeable and very friendly!

This is not a paid review, by the way - And no, Tony at Wareham didn't cut me some "special deal or price" since I hold a commercial drivers license to get a favorable review. I paid the same price anyone else would have paid, and took my own time to write this review.

When you are talking with your broker, find out exactly what their brokerage fee is and how much goes to the driver who hauls your vehicle. As a driver, the loads that pay better get hauled first - plain and simple - you would do the same if you were hauling freight/cars off load boards.

Also, ask your broker exactly where in the load board pricing structure/queue your vehicle will be based upon what you pay and (most importantly) how much goes to the driver.

Bigger is not always better. I saved a fair amount of money using a smaller/newer transport company and got my Jeep delivered fast.

The bottom line - Wareham did a great job for me, I recommend them highly - very experienced folks - it shows.
