Why Choose Us
Why AmeriFreight Is One of the Nation's Best Car Shipping Companies
No Upfront Payment
No upfront payment is required while we search for a carrier. A deposit is charged only after a carrier is selected and the shipment is booked; the balance is typically paid to the carrier on delivery.
Door-to-Door Transport
We arrange door-to-door auto transport across the United States. Pickup and delivery are coordinated as close to the requested addresses as safely and legally possible based on location access and transport equipment.
Vetted Carrier Network
We work with a nationwide network of vetted carriers that hold the insurance coverage required by law. We make good-faith efforts to confirm carrier registration and insurance through FMCSA data before matching a shipment with a carrier.
Open & Enclosed Transport Options
Choose between open and enclosed auto transport based on the vehicle and shipping needs. Open transport is our most common option, while enclosed transport provides additional protection from road debris and weather exposure.
20+ Years of Experience
Experienced agents look beyond mileage—where the driver goes next, freight near the destination, and how far pickup is from the interstate. That judgment is what 20+ years in this business actually buys you.
Optional AFTA Gap Protection
Optional AFTA gap protection is available for added protection during transport. AFTA is not insurance and is subject to plan terms and conditions. Ask an AmeriFreight Auto Transport agent about available coverage options for the shipment.
Expedited Auto Transport
When pickup timing is a priority, expedited auto transport can help shorten the carrier search and pickup window. Availability and timing depend on the route, location, vehicle, and current carrier availability.
Highly Rated by Customers
Thousands of customers have shared their experiences with AmeriFreight Auto Transport across independent review platforms. Strong ratings and feedback reflect more than 20 years of arranging vehicle transportation nationwide.
More Than 20 Years of Experience in Practice
Ask any of our agents what separates a smooth shipment from a rough one, and they won't recite a script. They'll tell you smooth shipments come from accurate information, some date flexibility, and a pickup spot the truck can actually reach. Rough ones almost always start with something nobody mentioned beforehand.
That's the kind of knowledge you only get from doing this for a long time. It's why we ask the questions we ask, and why we tell you upfront what's likely to affect your price and your timeline instead of finding out together on pickup day.
How It Works
Car Shipping in Three Steps with AmeriFreight Auto Transport
AmeriFreight Auto Transport makes vehicle shipping easier by coordinating the process from booking through delivery. Whether you're moving to another state, relocating for work, or heading to college, our team explains what to expect and helps facilitate each step so you can focus on the move ahead.
Step 1
Book your order
Fill out our online form or give us a call to schedule your car shipping. We'll ask a few specific questions about your vehicle and timeline so you can be matched with the right carrier at the right price.
Step 2
Your vehicle is picked up
A fully vetted carrier is dispatched to your preferred pickup location, where your vehicle is carefully inspected and loaded for transport.
Step 3
Your vehicle is delivered
Your vehicle is delivered to your chosen drop-off location. You complete a final inspection, and our care team follows up to confirm everything went smoothly.

BEFORE YOU BOOK
What to Know Before Choosing a Car Shipping Company
Choosing an auto transport company involves more than comparing prices. Before booking, take a few minutes to understand who you're working with, what the service includes, and what to expect throughout the shipping process.
Verify Licensing and Credentials
Check that the auto transport company is properly registered with the FMCSA and has an active USDOT or Motor Carrier number where applicable. AmeriFreight Auto Transport is a licensed and bonded car shipping broker with MC #597401 and USDOT #2238770.
Read Independent Customer Reviews
Reviews can provide useful insight into how a company handles communication, carrier coordination, and customer concerns. Look across multiple independent review platforms and pay attention to both the overall rating and the experiences customers describe.
Understand the Upfront Payment Policy
With AmeriFreight Auto Transport, no upfront payment is required while we search for a carrier. A deposit is charged after a carrier is selected and the shipment is booked, and the remaining balance is typically paid to the carrier on delivery.
Understand Your Protection Options
Ask what protection applies during transport and what optional plans are available. AmeriFreight Auto Transport offers optional AFTA gap protection for qualifying shipments. AFTA is not insurance and is subject to the applicable plan terms and conditions.
Know the Role of an Auto Transport Broker
A broker does not operate the transport truck. Instead, brokers help connect customers with carriers and coordinate the shipment. AmeriFreight Auto Transport works with a nationwide network of vetted carriers that hold the insurance coverage required by law.
Treat Quotes and Timing as Estimates
Auto transport depends on factors such as route demand, carrier availability, weather, traffic, and pickup and delivery access. Quotes and timing are estimates, and final pricing and dates can shift with those conditions.
