Shipping two trucks from MS->SC
Hi -
I am looking at old threads, trying to see how people have been shipping trucks etc. I need to move two c10s from southern Mississippi to coastal South Carolina- around 700-725 miles. I put in the info with UShip, but then I read a bunch of crazy and discouraging stuff about them both on this site and other sites. Has anyone moved anything from MS with a hauler that they would recommend? Thanks - Matt |

Re: Shipping two trucks from MS->SC
I've used Reliable and FedEx Custom Critical. Both were great, but as you can guess, not cheap. If you're going enclosed, I'd recommend Reliable. You could probably get a good deal on two, I'd think, since other than extra fuel for the weight there are no extra stops or routes for the second one.

Re: Shipping two trucks from MS->SC
Just got an online quote from reliable but they just calculated it at 2x the number - i think I am going to call and see about getting a deal for the twofer. Thanks!
Any other opinions? |

Call some of the bigger salvage yards. Some of them buy from sales in states several states away, they have to get them home to dismantle them somehow. I know at my sale I buy from there is a guy there that buys from AL,and I am in AR. They don't just appear in AL. they get them there somehow. I also know there is a guy that buys there is in Ohio.

Junk yards were a bust, they said they find all the junk cars they need withing towing distance w/ their trucks! haha Knowing the drivers here, we should have lots of wrecks to keep them busy! Didn't get a discount for the twofer, in case anyone else is looking for something similar later. Thanks everyone so far! I appreciate the help - |
