"Communication was good! My car got shipped from New Jersey to Dallas Texas within 3 days so delivery was quick as well. Carrier was also friendly!"
"A pickup was scheduled just 2 days from when I called and delivered from Dallas to CA in just 2 days. Driver was great and also very good value. Have used RoadRunner on 2 occasions and both very good."

Open or Enclosed Transport for North Dakota to Texas?
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 recently relocated from Los Angeles, CA to Dallas, TX. I found RoadRunner from Google and received excellent services from the quote to the service of picking my car and transporting across country. The driver Milan, was very thorough in communicating and providing accurate updates of where my car was located. If I ever needed my car transported again I would use RoadRunner!!!
