Hello Roy, I wanted to extend my sincere thanks for safely transporting my car from VA to Las Vegas.

It's clear that your team takes great pride in their work, and I truly appreciate the care you put into handling my vehicle during the journey. If I or anyone I know needs reliable auto transport in the future, I'll be sure to recommend your company without hesitation. Thank you once again for an outstanding experience!Posted on Robert IvanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I transported both my cars from NY to Florida. This was my very first experience searching for a safe reliable car transport. The customer experience alone was a true Blessing. They spoke with me everyday & made me feel reassured. They walked me every step of the way from beginning to end making the experience a dream come true. Onyx also gave me a discount for transporting my second car. I will always truly recommend them to all my family & friends. Thank you Onyx..! Robert IvanPosted on ginamb001Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lela (scheduler) was great overall and her communication was perfect, and the price they quoted was very fair. One thing to note is that they tend to secure a driver closer to your actual dates, so having a flexible window for pickup and drop-off is important. It’s not their fault, though, this is just the nature of the industry, where they often wait for a driver to be assigned to the route, which can make scheduling a bit unpredictable. That said, they were punctual and showed up exactly when they said they would for both the pickup and drop-off of the car. The driver was nice and professional. No complaints here!! Thank you!Posted on Ben DoronilaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Picked up from NJ and dropped off in California in less than a week. Best company, best agent, and our driver Roy is very professional! Roy had us worry-free the whole time as well as by giving us constant updates.Posted on Dan XavierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lela provided excellent service with the transportation of our two cars. One was shipped from Maryland to California, and the other from Maryland to Utah. In both instances, Lela offered great service at a reasonable price, and the cars were delivered on time without any issues.

Vehicle Condition
Inoperable vehicles may require special equipment such as winches, which can impact pricing.

Open Auto Transport
You might be surprised to learn how much long-distance auto shipment might cost. On longer trips, the per-mile charge frequently drops, saving you money even when the overall cost rises with distance. Short trips (like 250 miles) can cost around $1.83 per mile, so that 250-mile trip might be about $457.50. As you go further, the price per mile goes down. For example, a 1,000-mile trip might cost about $0.85 per mile, totaling around $850. If you’re moving even further, say 2,000 miles, the per-mile cost drops to around $0.57, making the total about $1,100. And for really long hauls, over 2,500 miles, the per-mile cost could be as low as $0.46, meaning a 2,900-mile trip could be about $1,276. So, while longer trips cost more overall, you actually pay less per mile.
