  • Discounts - Depending on the company, there may be discount programs that you qualify for when relocating a car in Farmington Hills. (To give you an idea, more than half of our customers qualify for a discount.) Some common discount categories are military personnel (active duty or retired), students, snowbirds, seniors, multi-car shippers, and online booking. Don’t be afraid to ask if it’s not mentioned!
  • Experience Counts - When choosing a company to move your car, experience counts for a lot. Not to say a company that’s a few years old couldn’t do a good job, but having a vast knowledge of industry standards and familiarity with auto shipping routes and other industry professionals matters a lot. Get an affordable price estimate from a company without evidence that they’ve previously shipped vehicles to or from the Area. You should probably look for one with a performance record in the region.
  • Bill of Lading—The key document in auto transport is the bill of lading, which specifies the type of cargo being sent, its owner, vehicle details, origin, destination, and condition. The "existing damages" section of the bill of lading is the most crucial part of the document, serving as your receipt in case of a complaint regarding damages or delivery delays.

Julie Carter
Picked up right on time
★★★★★

The dispatch team was great to work with for my Farmington car shipping reservation. They did their best to make everything work even though I needed the vehicle moved on short notice. The carrier always got back to me quickly, picked up the car when scheduled, and actually delivered it earlier than expected. 

Alicia Tatum
Car arrived without issues
★★★★★

The driver delivered our vehicle without any problems or scratches and kept us updated by text the whole time. The only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars is because we were later told it might cost more than the original quote due to driver availability. I held out, and they eventually found a driver willing to take the shipment at the quoted price. In the end, the car transport went smoothly.

Umid Larson
Always top level service
★★★★★

#1 car shipping service from A1 Auto Transport! We have been working with this company for a long time and everything they offer is always top level, from pricing and payment to communication. Sarah is wonderful and kind, and she does a great job every time. Thank you, Sarah, 5 stars for you. We hope to keep doing business together for a long time!!

Arthur Reynolds
Driver handled the car well
★★★★★

The driver was polite, seemed to know what he was doing, and treated our vehicle with care. The reason we did not give 5 stars was because the car was picked up a day early. We agreed to that since it was not supposed to be delivered early, but it arrived a day sooner than expected and we were not available to meet it. We had to ask a friend to accept the vehicle and get cash for the remaining balance. It would be nice if there were a way to handle payment without creating extra inconvenience for friends helping out.
