Matthews shipments benefit from access to I-485, I-77, and I-85, which connect the Charlotte metro to major national transport routes. Seasonal demand tends to increase during summer relocation periods and winter moves to Florida, which can affect pricing and availability.
Whether you're shipping out of Matthews or moving a vehicle into the area, we've got the service to match your needs.
Every carrier in our network carries federally required cargo coverage. That said, certain damage scenarios can fall outside what standard carrier coverage actually handles and that gap is worth knowing about before your Matthews shipment moves. The AFTA PLAN is an optional protection plan that covers eligible damage claims that standard carrier coverage misses. It's not insurance but it adds a real layer of protection. If you go with it you've got 48 hours from delivery to report any damage. Your agent will walk you through exactly what's covered.
The estimate your agent provides covers all expected costs for your shipment. If anything changes before your vehicle is dispatched, your agent will communicate that to you before any payment is processed. You are never charged without your knowledge and consent. We do not promise locked-in pricing, but we do promise that your vehicle is never dispatched without your agreement on the final cost.
Getting a quote from AmeriFreight Auto Transport costs nothing and we don't ask for payment information upfront. We search our carrier network on your behalf and when we find a match for your Matthews route your agent walks you through the full offer, pickup window, estimated delivery timeframe and total cost included. You review everything first. Payment only happens after you've seen the offer and decided it works for you.
You can cancel your Matthews shipment at no charge at any point before your vehicle has been dispatched to a carrier. Once a carrier has been dispatched, cancellation terms apply. Your agent walks you through the full terms at the time of booking so there are no surprises if your plans change.
AmeriFreight Auto Transport has been a trusted name in vehicle shipping for over two decades. In an industry where pop-up brokers and new entrants come and go constantly, our track record and verified reviews across multiple independent platforms say more than we ever could about what working with us actually looks like.
Every carrier we partner with holds active FMCSA operating authority and carries federally required cargo coverage. We don't work with carriers that don't meet those standards. Your Matthews vehicle gets handled by a vetted professional, not an unscreened driver pulled from an open marketplace.
