Hey All, I may need to ship my car to the midwest (oklahoma/texas area). Is there a trucking company that someone could recommend?

thanks

I recently had my car shipped from Florida to Texas. After running into scheduling trouble with one shipping company, I had my car delivered by Express Auto Transport and they did a great job. Here is the info:

Sylvan (owner-not sure of his last name)
Express Auto Transport USA, Inc.
954.818.0775 (cell)
954.349.0630 (office)

Tell him that Vance from San Antonio, Texas recommended him. He will remember delivering my Black 545i. I always spoke to him on his cell and he kept me up on what was going on. He delivered right on time and apparently, that is a rare thing.

Hope this helps!

Saw your "from" as CA, but just noticed the note about the car being in Italy - correct? If you are shipping from Italy, Sylvan is probably not your guy - if from CA, you'll just have to ask what areas he covers.

Even if he can't directly help, he may be able to make other recommendations.

Ya they're more than your average folks. WOW... I got quoted $1400 or was it $1600 from NY to Cali 3 years back.

They're a complete enclosed transporter.
