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 Wheeling, Illinois 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 Wheeling, Illinois. 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.
Active duty service member and I've done four PCS moves. This was the first time I used RapidAutoTransport for vehicle shipping to Wheeling, Illinois and it will be the standard from now on. Straightforward, fast, priced fairly, and actually on time.
Six months in as a fleet client in Wheeling, Illinois and I've not had a single late delivery or billing surprise. For a dealer, that's worth more than the per-vehicle rate alone.
Bought a Tesla Model 3 in California and needed it shipped to Wheeling, Illinois. Called three companies two gave me prices that changed on the day of booking, one never called back. RapidAutoTransport locked the rate in, sent a driver who understood EV handling protocols, and the car was in Wheeling, Illinois five days later with a full battery charge. First class from first call to last signature.
