DAS was awesome until they moved their hub out of buffalo. Look into their door-door service

Trusty Transport FTW.  
[http://www.trustytransport.com/](http://www.trustytransport.com/)

I ebay’d a car, had it shipped from Yonkers to here this summer.  
Door-to-door, Flatbedded, 2 day service, ~$120 + tip (optional of course).  
Small company, fast as hell cust. service.

I talked to DAS about it, but I they do not handle same state orders, so I cannot go further then saying “they were nice on the phone” 🙂

$120?  
You would think the fuel would cost that much.  
That is a good deal.  
I may need this service too.

exactly. I dunno how, but that’s about what I paid. iirc his emails were along the lines of “1 guy dispatching a small fleet of trucks keep overhead down”.

Whatever… it was cheap, timely, and :tup: attitude. I’ll see if I can find the shipping docs at home tonight. Guy’s name was robbie, but that’s about all i remember atm.

1. its not on the road
