"They are very easy to work with and answered all my questions prior to the pickup. It is also easy to get a hold of an actual person if you have questions or need to update order information. And they have very good communication about pickup and delivery times."
"Very smooth and timely pickup and delivery. Easy to communicate with dispatch and operators when needed. Will recommend and use RoadRunner Auto Transport again in the future!"
"Kyle was open and honest in answering my questions! Pickup was possible and happened within hours of booking, wow! The driver communicated very well and promptly, as well as went above and beyond by his own suggestion and willingness! Delivery was ahead of schedule and again effortless."
"RoadRunner Auto Transport did an excellent job delivering my Tesla. The vehicle arrived exactly when they said it would, and their communication throughout the process was clear and consistent. I was kept updated from pickup to delivery, which gave me peace of mind."
Open or Enclosed Transport for Connecticut to Montana?
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.

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. We called Road Runner and our agent found a reliable , reasonably priced transporter to bring our car from South Carolina to Connecticut on that same day! They really saved us from what would have been a very stressful and aggravating situation.
