Who We Are

Unlike brokers who post your shipment to a load board and wait to see who takes it, we work with a curated, vetted group of carriers. That means we know who's handling your vehicle. 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.

The vehicle types change. The level of service doesn't.
We don't broker your vehicle to unknown carriers. We know every driver in our Ford City, CA network personally and they know what our standards are.RapidAutoTransport Operations Team

Customer Reviews
I've shipped cars before with two other companies and the experience was always a mess late pickups, no updates, drivers who didn't speak to me until delivery. With RapidAutoTransport in Ford City, CA, the driver called me the evening before pickup to confirm. He arrived on time, walked the car with me, and even took his own photos. I tracked the vehicle the entire way. Arrived with zero issues. This is what the industry should look like.
My Maserati made it from New York to Ford City, CA without a scratch and I was nervous about the entire thing. The enclosed carrier was spotless, the driver was meticulous, and the delivery was literally 20 minutes ahead of schedule. I've already recommended them to two other owners in my car club in Ford City, CA.
Military family, PCS move, Ford City, CA 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 Ford City, CA 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.
Retired, moved to Ford City, CA, needed my Lexus shipped from up north. The entire process quote, booking, pickup, tracking, delivery was the smoothest experience I've had with any service company in recent memory. Five stars isn't enough.
