Who We Are
When residents and businesses in Tuscaloosa, AL need a vehicle moved across the state or across the country, RapidAutoTransport is the call they make.

We know their safety record, their communication habits, and their equipment. That's not something you can say about a broker and it's exactly what you deserve when you're trusting someone with your car.

Customer Reviews
As someone who's moved cross-country twice and shipped vehicles both times, I can say without hesitation that RapidAutoTransport is in a different category. Shipped my Jeep from Tuscaloosa, AL to Oregon every step was communicated, the price didn't change, the car arrived in exactly the same condition it left. I referred two friends to them before my vehicle even reached Portland.
I purchased a 1971 Plymouth Barracuda from a private seller in another state and needed it shipped enclosed to Tuscaloosa, AL. My previous experience with enclosed transport had been fine but impersonal no one told me anything unless I asked. RapidAutoTransport was different. The driver sent me photos at loading. He called when he was two hours out. He walked me around the car at delivery. The paint was perfect. The car was exactly as photographed. I don't even have another option to consider next time.
Military family, PCS move, Tuscaloosa, AL was our new duty station. I needed my wife's car shipped while we drove the truck with the kids. RapidAutoTransport picked it up, gave me tracking access, and it was parked in front of our new place the day after we arrived. I cannot say enough good things.
I run a small used car operation in Tuscaloosa, AL and ship 8 to 12 vehicles a month from auctions around the country. RapidAutoTransport handles all of it now. The rate is fair, the vehicles consistently arrive undamaged, and their dispatcher actually texts me updates without me having to ask. That responsiveness has saved me hours every month.
Bought a Tesla Model 3 in California and needed it shipped to Tuscaloosa, AL. Called three companies two gave me prices that changed on the day of booking, one never called back.

First class from first call to last signature.
