I don't even know where to start. After hours of digging through Google, Reddit threads, Yelp…read morereviews... you name it, I was genuinely overwhelmed trying to find the right company to ship my (new to me) classic car (1967 Mustang). It feels like every transport company has either horror stories of the car falling off the trailer and the driver didn't have insurance, car was taken to the Mexican boarder and never seen again, or obviously fake reviews. I eventually landed on Zip Auto Ship for two big reasons. First, the sheer number of legit 5-star reviews. Not AI-written nonsense, no bots, actual people with real experiences. I honestly didn't believe it at first. Second, I called and spoke with Josh, and that conversation alone pretty much sealed it. He didn't give me the usual sales pitch. He walked me through how the process works, why prep and proper insurance coverage matter, and how carefully he vets the carriers he works with. It was clear he actually cares about doing things the right way, and that immediately put me at ease. For context, I got five quotes total: two from friends' recommendations, two local companies, and then Josh at ZipAutoShip. Not only did Josh have the best reviews and the most transparent communication, but his quote was the best price by a noticeable margin. About 10% cheaper than everything else I looked at. And again... zero pressure. No pushing, no guilt-tripping, just straight answers and a fair number. From there, he made the whole thing ridiculously easy. He took my info, contacted the current owner on my behalf, coordinated everything with the carrier, and lined up the pick-up and delivery without me having to babysit the process. The car showed up at my door in Little Rock four business days after my first call with him. Smooth, simple, exactly what you hope for when shipping a vehicle but rarely get. And honestly, one of the things I appreciated most: he didn't spam me afterward. No "hey can you leave a review?" messages, no follow-up hustle. Just a job well done and letting the work speak for itself. That actually says a lot about the kind of business he runs. If I ever have to ship a car again, there's absolutely no question I'm calling Josh. Save yourself the headache and just go with Zip Auto Ship.

I originally hired another company to move my car up to NY. After they completely dropped the ball…read moreon any of their promises, I reached out to Josh. He was very sympathetic to my problem and got right into finding a solution. Within one day, he sourced another carrier, gave me a promised pick up date and supplied the carrier's proof of insurance to ease my mind that my car would be covered if damaged. Josh is an all-star who takes great pride in is work in an industry that is filled with less-than honorable people. It's one thing to make a promise, it's another if they can actually deliver on the promise - that's where this company excels!!!

After reading all the great reviews and the quote was lower than most auto shippers, I decided to go with Coastal Auto Shipping. It was my first time handling such a big move by myself and he helped me through the whole process even when questions I asked may have sounded repetitive. He was patient and a pleasant person to work with. To the day, I signed up and the day I dropped my car off at the port in Oakland. Coastal Auto Shipping was with me throughout the process. Car was shipped by Matson to Hawaii and arrived with no issues. Oh it also arrived earlier than it's ETA! I would highly recommend using Coastal Auto Shipping!

Easy, just the way I like to do business. Transport driver was professional who carefully loaded the vehicle without causing any damage due to the low undercarriage. Car was picked up and delivered just as we were told. We were prepared for a possible delay as the car was traveling From NEPA to South Florida, fortunately the stars all aligned. Price was on point for the service provided, the car was delivered to my sons dorm or we had the option if he was in class to have to delivered to MDJ with no additional fees. This company was great and accommodating and truly does care about its customers. Don't waste your time looking for another transport who "may" be cheaper, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! See you in a few months for the return transport!

Requested car transport from L.I. to Boynton Beach. The service has been getting worse lately…read more Ordered service on Dec. 19, and was supposed to be delivered Dec. 22. When there was no call for delivery, called and asked about it. At first the excuse was heavy traffice then when it wasn't delivered the next time, was told a car wasn't ready to be picked up and had to wait. Again, a date and time was given, no show. I was then told it would be 9am on 12/25. When called at 10am, as it was a no show, or even a call to change the time, was very nasty. Said was sleeping and was screaming, as it got to him. Lied about the time he said the day before. The last time it was 8 days until I got it. It is now 6 days and there has been no delivery.

I was contacted by someone using the email petermalek@fivestarautotransports.com, and after collecting payment, they completely disappeared. No service was provided, and follow-ups were ignored.

Do not send them any money. Always verify the actual business website and contact information before booking. I'm posting this to help protect other customers from falling for this scam.
