I arranged a transport a month in advance to ship my daughter's car from Hampton University to Houston, Texas the first of May 2025. No one showed up on the agreed day of departure. I had to call another company the day of departure, and that other company delivered. I lost confidence in Roadrunner, and you all have such a memorable name. You all did a great job shipping the car from Houston, Texas the Fall of 2024 to Hampton, Virginia.
Transporting a vehicle is always complicated because all of these companies are really brokering owner-operator transport companies. Road Runner is completely transparent about the process and was great in staying in contact with the driver to make sure my vehicle was picked up and delivered on schedule. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them in the future.
It took a full 2 weeks from the date the car was delivered to the local transport company for it to show up at the intended destination which seemed excessive. The thing that really bothered me however was the inability to know the status of the vehicle for that entire period. I was expecting to be able to get updates and/or follow it on a tracker but neither of these things were possible. When I spoke with customer service I was told that they couldn't help me. As I say, the car did arrive and that was fine. But since you ask, please consider investing in a tracking system that works and beefing up your customer service.
They picked up my car in Scottsdale and delivered it to Illinois in 3 days. No issues with delivery. Met the promised time frame.
They delivered ahead of schedule and were courteous I would be happy to refer your services in the future
My driver went above and beyond when delivering my car. They arrived a day before I did and dropped off my car no problem. Thank you so much!
I schedule a cross country transport from CA to FL. My car was picked up a day earlier than scheduled which was a little inconvenient because I had to scramble on getting rental a day earlier and had to get my car from the shop. But the transport was very quick and the communication was great, so I only took off 1 star.
My transporter arrived at the agreed upon time. Loaded my car securely!
Arrived after a long days drive. My car arrived on the same day we moved into our new state! All great!
The car was picked up a day later. We were told we would get updates of driver's location which didn't happen. Driver would not answer phone until I had someone speak Spanish tell him we wanted our vehicle. And most of all he told our interpreter that they don't travel on weekends. This was the straw that broke the camels back.
My vehicle arrived on time and in good shape. The driver was very professional. Overall a great experience.
Vehicle arrived in a timely manner and in good condition.
This is the 3 time your company do it the same, they switch the price of the service all the time, for any reasons like doesn't have someone pick up for the price on the quote or don't start the car, when the car is run and drive and when I pick up the car starts l, all the time charge me 300 dollars more I'm use this company for more than 10 years, I hope don't have this situation anymore because it's not correct don't respect the contract and charge more money đź’°
The vehicle was transported just as expected but the window for delivery was basically all day which is fine, the only problem was that i was told the driver would contact me and let me know when it was within an hour away so i would be ready for it, the driver called when he was only minutes away, had i been at work or even out running a quick errand because i thouht i would be alerted with enough time to get home both parties would have been inconvienenced and I would have had to pay a wait fee to the driver per delivery agreement. But i got the vehicle in one piece so i guess it all worked out.
The driver was on time & very courteous.
Thank you.
He picked my car up on 2/6 and I didn't get my car until 2/12 so I had no transportation. Something needs done maybe take a few hundred off the bill would be the right thing to do.
I arranged for a pickup in Denver. The company responded that same week with a pickup. The vehicle was delivered as promised on time.
Your professional job.
Thank you for your help.
I have a pickup for April 21 from
Englewood Florida to Setauket New York
It's was efficient and the company was very professional. The only con was the price variation from the original quote was 250 more than quoted
I placed my order to transport 2 cars out of state over a month in advance. They then called me 1 week before my pickup and told me that they found a company to move my cars, but now it is going to be $200 more than my original quote. I did not have any choice because now it is too late to go with another company. Then a few days later they call me and said that the original company to move my 2 cars their truck broke down. Now they have to use a different company, and it's going to be a different pick update. This will not work because my family was moving out of state, and we were all catching a flight the next day. I had to go back and forth with people on the phone, and they are incredibly hard to get on the phone. You are on hold for over an hour. They finally got someone to pick up my cars, the driver called me and said he would be at my house in 15 minutes, and this was a day before they were scheduled to be there. I had to tell him I was not ready; they were not scheduled to be there until tomorrow. He told me to be ready at 7AM then next day. We stayed up almost all night packing and getting the cars ready. The drive was 5 hours late. He then told me I can not have anything in my cars. This was not the original agreement. I was told I can have stuff in my car, as long as it's under 100 pounds, and the does not go above the window line. We just had plastic toys and stuffed animals that my child plays with. When the drive saw my car, he then said it's going to be an extra $200, per car because I have stuff in my car. I had no choice but to pay it, because we were flying out the next day and I had no other options.
Picked up the car, spoke with driver, took a walk around the car, tipped him $100, and left with the car.
Answer: Via the website it was pretty easy and they called once. But, when giving updates, they didn't call as promised and just emailed.
Answer: There are many shipping brokers and definitely do your research. I've shipped over 12 times and this has been the absolute worse experience I've ever had.
Answer: 8 days after I paid extra money than initially asked for
