LShipper Recommendtions to Ship Truck from Reno, NV to Tacoma, WA

I purchased a 67 SWB out of Reno, NV and need to have it shipped to Tacoma, WA. The truck starts and drives, but I'm in Afghanistan and have no way to pick it up.

I'm hoping to get a recommendation for a shipping company, rather than soliciting quotes on-line, because I cannot receive phone calls and I do not want my wife getting 30 calls a day.

Recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Wes

Would it make the drive? Or does it have to be shipped

Hi Wes,
Good looking truck. I recommend connecting on-line with Kiwi's Karriers based in Quilcene, WA. Small and friendly family run business.

Thanks for your service. Be safe.

Westsong, it runs and drives, but I don't know if it's ready for a 500+ mile trip. I just want to find a reliable licensed/insured shipper to get it up to WA to wait for me.

Ok, My wife and i are drivind to Reno in 2 weeks from PDX. Was gunna offer to drive it back at least to PDX for ya...U pay Gas.Then get one of your friends to drive it from PDX to TAC. Shipper would be easier but if it ends up costing you a fortune keep it in mind if ya like.

Weston, I appreciate the offer, but there's just too many unknowns about the truck. I'm thinking that shipping it would be the most trouble free. If there is a breakdown or other problem, I don't want my wife to have to deal with it. As far as "Washington friends" go, they're all in Panjwa'i with me playing cowboys and Taliban.

I just sent you a private message with some information about a guy I have used to ship a vehicle for me.
