My F83 and I are moving!

///M4Convert · 03-11-2019, 08:16 PM

Good evening all, I just moved from Maryland to Atlanta. Any recommendations on shipping my M4 to Atlanta? I've never shipped a car before. I'm being quoted $660+.

Thanks in advance!

$660 sounds about right. I shipped an e46 m3 from south Florida to California for $700.

Welp... the place I used ended up being extremely unreasonable. They told me it would be an additional 450... so I'm currently still looking for someone. I'm completely ignorant to this whole situation. You hire a broker? Then the broker finds a driver? So frustrating. Why can't I call someone and say... hey pick my car up. Thanks.

you can use uship to find a broker, or you can pony up and set it up with a private company such as Reliable etc.

I have had success using Montway. But as with going thru any broker, it can be hit or miss unfortunately. Pay a little extra for topload.

I assume you ruled out just driving it or asking a friend to drive it and fly them home?

I honestly didn't want to put the 700+ miles on it.

I did find a broker, 700 for everything. They pick it next Friday, and I'll have it next Saturday. If anyone is kinda close to Atlanta let me know! Would love to cruise!
