I bought a car in Virginia and had it shipped to Kansas. I used National Auto Transport and would NEVER use them again. While the vehicle finally got here it was two weeks later than contracted for. They tell you they will pick it up on xx date and that they have reserved a spot on a specific truck, when in reality they sub the delivery out to any number of independent drivers at any time they are available. Point is don't believe anything they say, because if their lips are moving......it's because they are telling a lie. I sent the money( cashiers Check) to the owner by good old US mail. The cost was $750 although I'm sure it will be less for a shorter trip. The moving company needs a contract signed by the shipper, a pick up location and name and phone number of the location he is picking up at and delivering to. Ohio to Minnesota, pretty close, I would consider meeting half way or drive there and rent a one way flat bed hauler and pick it up if you've a vehicle to pull it, or be prepared for delays and frustrations. Oh yes , if they are using a car hauler, be sure your car is on the top row if it's a convertible. You don't want stuff leaked on the top. Good luck.

Neither one of us have done this before and just looking for how other people have done this. He�s thinking of having a delivery company pick the car up from my place. 1) I�m in Ohio, he�s in Minnesota. Ohio titles have to have the seller�s signature notarized. Do I just get my title notarized and mail it? 2) What�s the best way to exchange funds? I�ve sold my cars locally by asking for cash or a bank cashier�s check. 3) What is needed by the delivery company at the point of pickup, in terms of paperwork, title, insurance, etc? 4) Anything else both of us should be aware of? Thanks! -Dave _______________________________________________ Chevelle-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://chevelles.net/mailman/listinfo/chevelle-list_chevelles.net
