"Consistent communication. The move from pick up to delivery was one day. The price was reasonable and there were no surprises. My transaction was handled with professionalism. I would recommend and I would definitely use their services again."
"Unbelievable experience. I called last minute to have my car transported from Minnesota to Texas. My car was picked up the next day on a Wednesday it was delivered in Texas around 8:00 p.m. Thursday. Now that's outrageous fantastic customer service"
"I have had two vehicles moved from Mesa AZ to Minneapolis mn. That have been super great with notifications and when the vehicle would arrive. My Audi and the three Wheeler motorcycle were delivered on time to my home in same condition. Good work Roadrunner!"
"Road Runner was able to help us when another company that we had previously arranged with told us they couldn’t pick up our car just hours before they were supposed to arrive."
Open or Enclosed Transport for Connecticut to Minnesota?
Open car transport is the standard choice for most shipments and the most economical way to ship a daily driver, SUV, or truck. Your car rides with 8–10 others on a multi-vehicle trailer, driven on via built-in ramps and secured to the deck for the trip — the same way dealers move new inventory. See open auto transport for details.
Enclosed car shipping earns its premium of roughly 50% when the vehicle itself calls for it: luxury, classic, and exotic cars, a vehicle fresh off the dealer lot with no road miles, or anything you would not want exposed to weather and road debris. If you're weighing the two, our guide to the difference between enclosed and open auto transport covers it in detail.
Expedited shipping is also available when the calendar is not negotiable: guaranteed pickup windows and direct driver routes that get your vehicle there faster. It is the option time-sensitive moves lean on, from military relocations to students starting a new semester.
