Why Sawmills Drivers Choose AmeriFreight Auto Transport

Additional Protection

OPTIONAL AFTA PLAN GAP PROTECTION

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 Sawmills 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.

Saveing Strategy

STRAIGHTFORWARD ESTIMATES — NO SURPRISE CHARGES

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.

No Up-Front Payment

NO UPFRONT PAYMENT UNTIL YOU CHOOSE A CARRIER

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 Sawmills 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.

We do the work first. You decide second.

Free Cancelation

CANCELLATION FLEXIBILITY

You can cancel your Sawmills 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.

20 Years of Experience

20+ YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

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.

5-Star Reviews

FMCSA-COMPLIANT CARRIERS ONLY

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 Sawmills vehicle gets handled by a vetted professional, not an unscreened driver pulled from an open marketplace.

Transit times begin after pickup and are estimates rather than guaranteed delivery windows. Weather, mountain driving conditions, traffic, road construction, and carrier scheduling may affect delivery times.

No. There is no upfront payment until you choose a carrier. Your AmeriFreight Auto Transport agent first locates a qualified carrier, presents the complete transportation offer for your review, and your shipment is only dispatched after you approve the carrier. Payment is only required after you choose the carrier that best fits your Sawmills shipment.

The optional AFTA Plan provides additional gap protection for qualifying Sawmills vehicle shipments and is not insurance. If selected, qualifying delivery-related concerns must be reported within 48 hours after delivery. Your AmeriFreight Auto Transport agent will explain the plan's eligibility requirements, benefits, limitations, and exclusions during your estimate.

The U.S. Department of Transportation generally does not permit household goods inside vehicles during auto transport. If a carrier allows personal belongings, advance approval is required and additional charges may apply. Personal items are not covered by the carrier's cargo protection or the optional AFTA Plan. Vehicles shipped to Hawaii cannot contain personal belongings.
