"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."
"It was very easy to communicate with The driver. And sent me updates prior to pick up and prior to delivery. The driver was very professional driver"
"Seamless automated experience. I never spoke with a live body to get a quote and schedule pickup but the timely electronic communication confirming that my driver was assigned, the call I received 2 hrs prior to pickup from the driver, being able to track my shipment along with driver updates and…"
"Had a Corvette C8 brought from a dealership in mid Kentucky all the way up to NW Ohio with no issues. Took 2 days from when I contacted them until I was in the drivers seat. Enclosed trailer at just above half of what I was quoted by dealership. Totally worth it."
Open or Enclosed Transport for Kentucky to Mississippi?
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.

I shipped my baby (Bronco) from MS to CA. I dropped her off immaculately clean. When I received her yesterday she had some dust but other than that - beautiful. Things or delays happen when shipping, know that, but the company and drivers did an excellent job communicating with me and kept me up to date. This is the 4th time shipping vehicles with Road Runner. I’ll use them again! Thx
