"We shipped my daughter’s car from Oregon to upstate New York. The price was very reasonable, delivery time was quicker than expected and the communication was very good. Road runner and the driver provided updates all along the way. Would use them again."
"My car arrived, exactly as promised, in great shape. Sure happy I did not have to drive it from Oakland harbor to Oregon. The driver had great communications and delivered it personally to my driveway. Thank you."
"We were extremely happy with the entire process. From the first call to the pickup and delivery. We had a friend meet the driver as we were heading back home to AZ from Oregon. They ended up picking up the car two days early. We were home to receive the car."
"Very professional, contract and info went smoothly and fast. Dispatcher kept me informed every dtep of the journey. Delivery was within 30 minutes of quoted time from South Dakota to my home in Virginia, that's damn good in my book, price of the shipping was very fair."
Open or Enclosed Transport for South Dakota to Oregon?
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.
