from Idaho to Missouri
I checked out several companies before choosing SGT. They were able to answer my questions so I hired them to pickup and deliver a car — Idaho to Missouri. It worked flawlessly. Great communication, reasonable price.

Steve Guthrie
from Washington State to Telford TN
Had a car shipped from Washington State to Telford TN. The experience was great!! No issues at all. No surprises in cost. The quote they gave me was exact! West Coast Transport shipped the vehicle and the driver was extremely professional and the car arrived just like it left the West coast! I would highly recommend SGT!!!
Andrew Haacke
from Texas to West Virginia
Got my car shipped from Texas to West Virginia. Provided live tracking of where the shipment was until the last day. The last day the gps wasn’t showing where the driver was, but I called dispatch and they told me an ETA. The car arrived in perfect condition.

Joe Dunn
from Texas to Utah
The service was great! I was able to schedule it all online. Pickup was easy and my jeep made it to Utah in less than two days. I am very happy with their service and will use them again ro being it back to Texas!!
Tanisha Parker
from California to Maryland
I was very hesitant about using any company to ship my car. I never had to do this and was not knowledgeable about the process. I had a quote from five different companies. Some higher and some lower. However, I decided to go with SGT Auto Transport based on their customer service. The process was easy and efficient. They explained the process would take about 4-6 days. I was shocked my car was shipped from California to Maryland in literally 4 days. And the driver was so polite. No extra/unexplained charges. No worries. If I ever need to ship a car again, the only company I am going with is SGT Auto Transport. Thank you

Customer Satisfaction in Car Shipping Services

Customer Satisfaction in Car Shipping Services

We’re committed to customer satisfaction and exceptional service, and that’s a core value that informs everything that we do.  It would be great if every last delivery exceeded customer expectations and went 100% according to plan, but unfortunately with that kind of shipping volume (and the number of variables that are inherent in this kind of industry), there are times when things could have gone better. 

Auto Transport Reviews and Online Feedback

Auto Transport Reviews and Online Feedback

We understand that and we shoulder the entire blame. It’s important to know, though, that reviews and Reddit posts don’t tell the whole story. Let’s take a closer look at Reddit responses and the climate of reviews online. 

Why Some Negative Reviews Appear Online?

Why Car Shipping Reviews Skew Negative

It’s just human nature that people want to speak out when they’re dissatisfied. Especially when it involves going to the trouble of going online and taking the time to write out a review, people are more likely to go that route after a bad experience than they would be if everything went according to plan and everyone was happy with the outcome.

Fake Auto Transport Reviews on Reddit

There are other reasons why people might leave a snarky review, though. It could be competitors who are trying to run a company’s reputation down and game the system by leaving fabricated negative reviews. It could be people who are just having a bad day, or it could even be bots. In too many cases, social media and Reddit have become overwhelmingly negative places wh

Car Transport Issues for Moves & Relocations

Often those negative reviews or comments that you encounter are stemming from isolated experiences like snowbird-season migration, college student auto transport or military auto transport. In the case of relocations, anyone who’s ever moved (even if it’s to an apartment across town) knows that moving is an enormous hassle with a seemingly endless number of loose ends

Negative Reddit Reviews in Auto Transport

It’s also worth pointing out here that just about every auto transport company, from the smallest to the biggest ones, is going to have some negative reviews surface on Reddit and other online outlets. It doesn’t mean everything about them is terrible, but as we mentioned, customers are often more likely to air out a bad experience than to praise a good one.

SGT Auto Transport and Customer Satisfaction

Whatever the case, the negative reviews that surface are far outweighed by the number of satisfied customers who’d be happy to come back to SGT and do business with us again - but just don’t write reviews about their experiences. One thing you can count on, though: every review about a less-than-satisfactory experience is taken seriously by our support staff and we’ll

Our Commitment: No Bait-and-Switch, Only Transparent Pricing

Car Shipping Reddit Reviews

Sometimes there are accusations of “bait and switch” practices, where the company raises rates after the initial quote. We tend to think this stems from a misunderstanding of how auto transport brokerage works; companies like SGT Auto Transport aren’t carriers, we’re brokers that connect customers with independent truckers who are available to handle their shipping needs, and then we help develop routes for those trucks by assigning other pickups and deliveries between point A and point B.

Car Transport Explained

We never ask for a deposit up front and we never charge a customer’s account until the order has been assigned to a truck driver. What does happen from time to time, though, is that our pricing system (informed by AI and algorithms) changes the rate for a given delivery before the order has been assigned to a truck driver, and people can get confused by that and feel there’s a disconnect there. Pricing is fluid and dynamic, and that’s partly why we consider a quote valid for a 7 calendar day period, after which the customer would have to use our Quote Calculator and get a fresher quote that reflects current rate structures.

Car Transport with No Hidden Fees

What we can guarantee you, though, is that all rate quotes from SGT Auto Transport are inclusive and locked-in. We will never ask for fees or charges on the back end that weren’t clearly stated up front, and we also offer a Price Match Guarantee: we’ll match the price of any reputable competitor if you can find that quote within 24 hours of booking your order with us. When we investigate that price and verify it we’ll gladly adjust your price quote to match it, making sure that you’re getting the best pricing possible.

Real Customer Testimonials

Let’s take a look at what customers have to say about their experiences with SGT Auto Transport, in their own words:

I requested to have my car shipped back and forth from Georgia to Minnesota. Easy booking and 24/7 customer service available via phone or chat. Good value and quick turnaround. I will continue to use them. (Yelp)

I had an excellent experience with SGT Auto Transport shipping 2 cars in an enclosed trailer from California to Florida. Our cars were picked up within 72 hours of our scheduled date and arrived 9 days later. We were able to reach the driver via text once the cars were picked up so we could contact him ahead of delivery. Overall, I found the service and value to be excellent and our cars arrived in good shape. (Yelp)

"We were very happy with SGT transport. We shipped our daughter's car from California to Illinois. They picked up the car within a guaranteed two day window at an extra charge and delivered 3 days later in Chicago. The person I talked to and the driver were both very professional and they kept me updated throughout the transport period." (Yelp)

"I discovered SGT Transport through some online research when I was preparing to have my car shipped for a vacation. The entire process of setting up the transport was straightforward and easy. The representative handled all my queries efficiently. I appreciated the option to message them before making arrangements over the phone, which helped streamline the setup process."

"The billing was like they indicated in the initial quote, and I didn't end up paying more than expected even after accounting for some personal belongings inside the car—and I found this fair considering the purpose and distance involved. Given all concerns were handled well and the service was trustworthy, I'd gladly use SGT's services again and recommend it to others needing vehicle transportation."  (Consumer Affairs)

"Where to start... Not in a million years would I have imagined having a vehicle transported from out of state (Texas to Arizona) going so smooth & seamless, be so affordable, or that everyone I interacted with at SGT would be so accommodating, prompt, straightforward & personable. After 21 years & 190,000 miles, the car I bought new with 5 miles on it & had been with me through every high, low & in-between moment of my adulthood, took me on our final ride together last month. Three weeks later, I found a beauty & knew she was the one. However, she was 2 states away.

…I will recommend them 100 times over! Thank you SGT for going above & beyond!!!"(Consumer Affairs)

Some of our valued customers' feedback

We were very happy with SGT transport. We shipped our daughter's car from California to Illinois. They picked up the car within a guaranteed two day window at an extra charge and delivered 3 days later in Chicago. The person I talked to and the driver were both very professional and they kept me updated throughout the transport period.
Everything went perfect. I will use this company again if needed. the price was wonderful and the time it took to transport the car was amazing.
Very responsive to any requests. Had some trouble with actual delivery date, mainly due to the remote nature of our final drop-off location. Would use them in a heart beat.
This was our first time shipping a vehicle and we were torn between several companies. I am SO happy that we chose SGT. They were phenomenal from the first call and our vehicle was delivered on time, in perfect condition for the exact amount that we agreed upon. We are about to ship a second Vehicle with them since this transaction was so smooth! Shipped car from Texas to California!
Look no further! Great service they picked my car up and dropped off seamlessly at a lower rate than most. So well worth booking with these guys.
Dean was really helpful, professional and patient with all of my questions regarding transport of my daughters car. We needed to pause shipment and he was able to make the process very easy to resume the transport. Would recommend this company.

Frequently Asked Questions About SGT Auto Transport

Is SGT Auto Transport legit?

Is SGT Auto Transport give bait-and-switch price?

No, our pricing is guaranteed and transparent with no tacked-on fees or surprises, ever. 

Why do some bad reviews exist on Reddit?

Some bogus reviews pop up from competitors, others from bots, others from disgruntled customers who have complaints to air out, but they’re far outweighed by the positive experiences. 

How does SGT handle customer complaints?

We follow up with customers who have had issues and we do everything we can to remedy them and make sure everyone is satisfied with the outcome. In some cases, refunds or credits are issued and in extreme circumstances, we’ll stop doing business with a carrier who hasn’t met our expectations for service and performance. That’s why we have a compliance department to work with carriers and make sure they meet our standards.

How can I be sure my car will arrive safely?

You and the driver will each perform an inspection of your vehicle before and after transport, for an accurate document of its condition in the Bill of Lading (photos are recommended). You also have the peace of mind of knowing that your vehicle is covered by a carrier insurance policy. If you really have concerns about the car’s condition, enclosed transport is available to keep it away from prying eyes and safe from the elements.
