Non-Running Car Transport, Central Texas

Why most carriers say no

Almost every car hauler needs your vehicle to drive up onto the trailer under its own power. If it will not start, they cannot load it. A multi-car carrier will not come out of its way for one dead car at any price, and a broker cannot promise you a date because they do not own a truck.

That is the gap this business exists to fill.

A tow truck drags. A deck carries.

A flatbed tow truck winches your car up a steep ramp onto a steel bed at an angle. For a daily driver that is fine. For a car with the suspension out, no brakes, or paint you care about, it is not.

Ours goes up mega ramps at a shallow angle or comes up on the winch, sits flat on a 30ft gooseneck deck, and gets strapped by the wheels. Nothing drags. Nothing touches the bodywork.

What we move

• Cars that will not crank, will not start, or have a flat battery
• Seized engines and locked brakes
• Project cars and barn finds that have not moved in years
• Cars with the engine, gearbox or suspension out
• Auction and salvage buys
• Flood, fire and collision-damaged vehicles

If it is in one piece and it rolls, it goes — the winch does the rest. If it will not roll or will not steer, tell us before you book. That one needs a different plan.

What every job includes

• Your vehicle is the only vehicle on the deck. Nothing loaded above it, nothing leaking onto it, and no waiting three weeks while other cars are dropped off first.
• Time-stamped photographs at pickup and at delivery. So there is never an argument about a mark that was already there.
• Licensed and insured motor carrier. USDOT 4545179, MC-1804329. Certificate of insurance on request.
• You talk to the driver. Not a call center, and not a broker who sells your job on to whoever bids lowest. The person quoting you is the person who shows up.

What it costs

Every job starts at $350. Put your two zip codes into the pricing page and you get a real number in about ten seconds.
