Why Allied
How We Work
Car shipping is an industry full of bait-and-switch quotes, carriers with lapsed insurance, and brokers who disappear after you pay. We've seen all of it. That's not a sales line — it's what this business looks like from the inside.
When you ship through Allied, we pull the carrier's FMCSA registration, verify their insurance certificate, and check their safety score before we ever assign them to your vehicle. A carrier with a clean DOT number and current coverage gets the load. One that doesn't, doesn't.
Our quotes are flat-rate. The price we give you is the price the driver gets paid. We don't inflate the spread, skim off the top, or quietly reduce your carrier's rate to pad our margin — which is exactly what a lot of brokers do. If our quote is higher than the one you got from the other guy, there's usually a reason.
Carrier Vetting
Our network is built on carriers with active FMCSA authority, a clean safety rating, and verified cargo insurance. We remove carriers when their record changes.
Insurance Verification
The carriers in our network carry cargo coverage, and we verify the certificate is current before your car is on the truck. Insurance lapses happen — we catch them.
Flat-Rate Pricing
The price we quote is the price you pay. No market adjustments after you commit. No fuel surcharges added at pickup. No bait-and-switch.
One Advisor
You get a dedicated Transport Advisor — a real shipping specialist with a direct line — from quote through delivery. Not a ticket queue. Not a call center.
A Real Person, Start to Finish
A Transport Advisor who actually picks up the phone.
From your first quote to the moment your car is delivered, you work with one named Transport Advisor — not a rotating call center, not a ticket queue. They know your shipment, your vehicle, and your timeline. Reachable by phone and text, seven days a week.
Your advisor's direct line — not a 1-800 maze.
What We Ship
Every vehicle. Every route.
Open Transport
The most common method. Your vehicle rides on an open multi-car carrier — safe, reliable, and available on almost every domestic route.
Get a quote →
Enclosed Transport
For vehicles that warrant extra protection. Classic cars, exotics, high-value trucks. A fully enclosed trailer, door-to-door, white-glove handling.

Cross-Country Routes
Coast-to-coast, Northeast to Southeast, Midwest to Southwest — we run the high-volume lanes daily with established carrier relationships.
View all routes →
Hawaii Shipping
Ocean freight to and from Hawaii. Horizon Shipping Hawaii handles inter-island routing, military PCS moves, and mainland-to-island logistics.
Hawaii routes →
Dealer & Fleet Accounts
Multiple units per month need dedicated account management, volume pricing, and consolidated billing. Built for dealers, fleets, and corporate relocation.

Seasonal Migration
Snowbird routes (Florida ↔ Northeast, Arizona ↔ Midwest) run on tight seasonal windows. We move hundreds of vehicles on these corridors every spring and fall.
Snowbird routes →
Enclosed & White-Glove
For the cars you'd never put on an open trailer.
Classics, exotics, low-mileage collectibles, six-figure builds. Enclosed transport means your vehicle never sees road debris, weather, or a stranger's hands — soft straps only, climate-controlled options, and carriers who specialize in high-value cars.
- Fully enclosed, single- or two-car carriers
- Soft-strap tie-down — no wheel or frame contact
- Photo condition report at pickup and delivery
- Carriers vetted for high-value, low-clearance vehicles
Our Process
A network of vetted, licensed and insured carriers
Car shipping fraud is real. A company posts a low quote, collects a deposit, and either ghosts you or hits you with a "market adjustment" when your car is at the terminal and you have no leverage. It happens every day.
We've seen the specific tactics. The quote that's 40% below market. The "guaranteed pickup" with no carrier assigned. The expired insurance certificate. Here's the standard a carrier has to meet to be in our network:

★★★★★
"I've shipped three cars now and the one time I didn't use Allied, I got burned by a bait-and-switch. They came in $80 higher than the other quote and it was worth every dollar."
David R.Atlanta → Seattle
★★★★★
"My Porsche shipped enclosed from New Jersey to Florida. No issues, showed up on time, carrier was professional. Will use again in the spring."
Karen T.Princeton → Naples · Enclosed
★★★★★
"I manage fleet transfers for a mid-size dealership. Allied handles 8–12 units a month for us and hasn't missed a pickup date in two years."
