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 Gretna, Virginia, 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.
I purchased a 1971 Plymouth Barracuda from a private seller in another state and needed it shipped enclosed to Gretna, Virginia. 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, Gretna, Virginia 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.
Six months in as a fleet client in Gretna, Virginia 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 Gretna, Virginia. Called three companies two gave me prices that changed on the day of booking, one never called back.
