We used West Coast Shipping to ship a large container of furniture, household items and boxes of ceramic tile for our home on NZ. Due to labor strikes- we encountered unavoidable delays. COO Alex Naumov and his supportive team had to stage and re-package on pallets at least two times before our belongings hit the water. Everything was so well packaged, we had NO damage on ANY of our over 110 separate items- most amazingly dozens of boxes of handmade ceramic tile. Delays are inevitable in this process, but their care in packaging our belongings and attention to detail are so appreciated. Many thanks! Pricing was fair, but you cannot put a price on peace of mind. read more

WCS was fabulous to work with in coordinating every step of the way in shipping my Porsche 911 from Paris France to Seattle Washington. Price was competitive to other companies but communications and quoting process was far better than other options which gave me more confidence with choosing them. I was in a time crunch too and they were able to meet my delivery timeline too. I would definitely ship again with them. read more

Used West Coast Shipping to ship our Volvo from San Francisco to Sweden. On the positive side the car got there in one piece and wasn't damaged. Unfortunately that's where it all the positive things end. In order to pick up our car once it got here we had to pay fees upon entry which were equivalent to $600 or so. So while the original price was decent just know you'll have to pay more and this isn't fully disclosed when you agree to use the provider. The worst part about using West Coast Shipping was the actual pick up of the vehicle. My wife took a train for four hours to pickup the vehicle in a different city. When she got there she was told that the car had no gas and wouldn't start. This is a newer luxury vehicle and while I understand the company would remove the gas during shipping I would also expect that they refill enough to get to a gas station. Instead the protocol seems to be that the customer has to pay to get the vehicle towed in order to get it filled up with gas. I contact the company while my wife was stuck in a different city far away unable to figure out a way to get the car home and they didn't even reply. In addition to that the battery was dead and we had to figure out a way to jump it. Well turns out AMG batteries don't like to be discharged for long and so my wife had to get two jump starts to make it home and now we have to replace the entire battery. All in all the two tow incidents costs $250 each + a new battery $300. The "operations manager" still hasn't gotten back to me or even apologized. None of this was mentioned (that we needed to bring our own gas and a new battery and the tools to replace it on site). Had I known I would have been prepared and not sent my wife. She went as she though it would have been a nice excursion only to be very disappointed and stressed out about the ordeal. I have to ship two cars back to the US in the future and would not consider using these guys again. read more

I have worked with WCS a couple of times now. Alex, their COO has been a great contact. I've sent vehicles from Poland and England, all the way out to Los Angeles, California. Even during the midst of the pandemic, the team was able to deliver in a timely and effective manner. read more

I want to take this opportunity to review this company that shipped my car from Arlington Virginia to a small town in Sweden (Harnosand). It turned out to be a perfect delivery, through a drop-off I requested at a local Subaru dealer, and then how it felt when I drove it home. I will be the first to admit that I was not the easiest of customers, often questioning things that they must take for granted, but the proof of the pudding is that the staff, each in their your own way, participated in getting my car to me with zero damage, indeed exactly as it was turned over, and for that potential customers need to know that they created a very satisfied customer. I hope that they keep on doing what they are doing and please remain aware that customers appreciate the difference between service providers when they choose one.  What may appear fungible to the average eye  -  a ship is a ship and the steps along the way are the same  -  but there is a marked difference between just doing routine work and doing a job that a service provider can be proud of.  Need I say where West Coast Shipping stands along that spectrum?  I think not. read more

I have shipped my car from NY to Ukraine with this company. My account manager was Lena. Finally I did regret so much that I made such a choice. Don't trust to company reviews. The shipping process contains a lot of hidden cost, that are not discussed before. Don't trust to low price of the company. Finally you can pay double or triple price. The company assigned to me its agent at the port of destination. My account manager Lena lied to me that I can change the agent if I would like to do so. In fact, it was not possible. The agent assigned by Lena charges unreasonable fees to make just a change of the agent. Then the agent increased his own fees multiple times after the shipping is made. So I was on a hook and forced to pay without due reason. They threatened, they won't release my car and something will happen to my belongings that were inside of the car. When I asked Lena to help, she let me know that she merely doesn't remember me. That is a standard scam process of the Western Coast Shipping. You bring them a car, pay first low fee and then they forget about you. Later their agent can extort from you fees not discussed before because the car is on a hook. Then western Coast Shipping let's you know they don't remember you. read more

West Coast Shipping - Vehicle Shipping Near Me - Richmond, California

I shipped my Porsche and BMW from Portland Oregon to Lisbon Portugal with West Coast Shipping. I could not be more pleased with the service. The costs were exactly as quoted and throughout the process, I was kept informed of everything that was happening. In an industry where there are a lot of unreliable and untrustworthy operators, I think West Coast stands out as one worthy of trust. I recommend them without qualification read more

By being responsible with peoples stuff. Thing I packed inside the cab of my truck arrived outside of the cab damaged and when I emailed they are not excepting responsibility. My truck has scratches down the side and arrived with a screw in the tire from their shipping yard. My newborns walker "new" was what was in the cab of truck. Has missing wheel and freeze and scratches all over it. If you value your possessions that you've worked hard for I'd definitely go with a different company. I moved to Dubai and eventually will be moving back to the states. But will most definitely not use this company again read more

I shipped 5 classic cars with WCS and all arrived badly damaged, there are before and after photos of the vehicles it is a clear cut case. They walked all over the roof and trunk of the vehicles, spilled chemicals on the paint, dented panels, smashed windows, ripped interior and more. I had to get a loan to fix the damages and they have been trying to avoid reimbursing me the damages money. I provided all the paperwork they requested but they are very unprofessional and will now not respond to my emails chasing up the situation. It has now been over 6 months and still no money. I strongly advise not using WCS as they do not care about vehicles at all and are unprofessional. read more

Pleasant People to do Business with..If you are looking for reputable Shipping company in Northern CA, this is the place to come!!

DO NOT RECOMMEND! UNFAIR AND DISHONEST! West Coast Shipping damaged my car during transit and they promised to fix this issue. I provided all proof necessary for the damages, I have the policy documents, pictures and insurance to fix my damages, but WCS is fabricating new "exclusions" . Please take your business elsewhere, I've recommended 3 of my peers to other companies and I'm not going to use WCS to bring my car back to the US end of this year. If you've faced a similar issue, please contact me, I'm bringing a Class action. Unfair and Dishonest company who does not honor their contract, please take your business elsewhere. read more

Shipped consolidated containers with cars and motorcycles to Kyrgyzstan. Easy shipping process and everything arrived safely

We recently made the mistake of shipping a car with West Coast Shipping and if you are reading this because you are considering using them as well DO NOT. The entire process was convoluted and the customer service was horrible. Our "dedicated agent" did not take phone calls and if we were lucky would return a missed call with a vague and occasionally incorrect email. We were given quotes and sold a product that were far from what was delivered. As a cherry on top of a ridiculous experience when we went to pick the car up from customs we sat in the office for over an hour waiting for the driver that we were instructed had arrived. When we finally reached an agent with West Coast I was unapologeticly told to "Knock on the back window of his car to see if he was sleeping in the back seat"...he was. I cannot reiterate enough what a mistake it was to select West Coast Shipping and only hope this review prevents others from making the same mistake we did. An international move is stressful enough without the "White glove service" of these goons. read more

I have used West Coast Shipping since the end of 2013. Since then I have shipped 6 containers. I can honestly say that I have nothing negative to say. All containers were filled with cars, some quite expensive. They excel in getting the paperwork all correct ( US customs etc). They are very good in loading the containers. Sofar no damage. One car was perfectly restored; not one single scratch on it. It was packed with 3 other vehicles in a tight container. It arrived w/o any scratch. I have used 4 other car loading warehouses in the Bay Area and this one is by far the best read more

This company is an absolute nightmare. They damaged several of my vehicles including forklift damage to two (fork right through the tailgate of one truck!) and oil spillage damage to another vehicle, not to mention the worse loading of a container I have ever seen. It was precarious and caused further damage to the cars and extra time and expense extracting the items at the destination. Still waiting for them to give me some money back. read more

AMAZING service. They treaded me like it was more than just business. They spent hours with me discussing the best and cheapest way to get my motorcycle from California to central Asia and they gave the best rates BY FAR. Amazing customer service, they even spent 5 hours taking my bike apart, making an extremely efficient crate, and carefully packaging my bike with the loose parts bubble wrapped. I couldn't have possibly had a better experience, thank you WC shipping. read more

BAAD Experience!!! I send a car to overseas! Had a car with broken lights and windows, and some dents on body because of company's fault, First they told me they gonna cover all extra expenses which I spent to fix it and after than they do not want to cover my expenses ...,which I spent ~500$ more ... which I really didn't understand their Costumer approach.. I don't recommend to send car with this company (West Coast Shipping), there is another best company named "Atlantic Express" with more locations all over US and better service! read more
