"Great experience in having a vehicle I bought in Idaho transported to Arizona. The only negative would be that the subcontractor didn’t use Roadrunner’s text update system, but the driver did keep me updated when he was close to our pick-up location. I would recommend."
"Amazing value for the money. I’ve used RoadRunner twice now—first to move my vehicle from Tennessee to Chicago, and most recently to transport it to San Diego. Even with severe weather, including a snowstorm and freezing rain, delivery was only delayed by one day."
"I had to have 2 vehicles picked up at a business in Tennessee and shipped to my shop in Philly. Very reasonable rates. Smooth transaction. Scheduled transport online. Received update messages (email/text) during entire transport. No problems."
"Worked with Eric to transport a new vehicle from Tennessee to Texas. Rates were competitive. The promise to pick up and deliver dates were on time as promised. No complaints."
Open or Enclosed Transport for Idaho to Tennessee?
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.

Before the carrier arrives

Schedule in advance
Book 7–14 days ahead for the best rates, and 2–3 weeks during peak season, when carrier space is tightest.
Prep and empty the vehicle
Wash the car, leave about a quarter tank of fuel, and remove personal items. Anything left inside is not protected against loss or damage in transit.
Inspect at pickup and delivery
Walk around the vehicle with the driver at both ends, photograph its condition, and note anything new on the Bill of Lading before signing.

Highly recommend Road Runner over other carriers. Shipped a truck from TN to ND. Very easy process... enter a few pieces of info on the website and get a quote, then get scheduled. Pick up and drop off were prompt and on time. Driver was very professional, with a nice semi and trailer. Didn't have other brokers calling, texting and emailing, just worked strictly with RR. Will use them for future auto transports.
