Default Cobra enclosed transport company recomendations

I am currently in process of selling my car and have a few interested parties. I have heard many horror stories with respect to transport companies lately. I am asking if anyone had "recently" had a good experience with a company and could recommend a few for shipment of my car once sold. Thanks, Brian

Intercity Lines. Used them twice and they were great both times.

I used Reliable transport to get the car from LA to Portland. Picked up on-time (a Wed), and delivered the next Monday. Driver (Edgar) was very nice, called ahead to make sure I would be there, and took great care offloading and handing over the vehicle to me. Simple and painless process, and the price was in-line with other quotes. And, they use their own trucks.

I scheduled the transport out of their Arizona office as I am west-coast, so YMMV.

Intercity, used them last month from Odessa to Phoenix and they were excellent. The driver called in advance for the pickup and delivery, picked up on the 8th and delivered on the 10th, and he was there right on time. They took good care of the car and I would recommend them highly.

Intercity lines... Just delivered my car to San Diego from CT. No issues, always offer information -- like driver's phone if you have a question. Driver was super nice.

Solid company, glad I went with them. Made sure the receiver put the car in a garage.

Intercity Lines was great for me. There are also companies that only do west coast or east coast. Good to ask car guys locally if you move a couple states away

Great results with Reliable all three times that I used them. My last experience last year was from So Cal to NJ and I had the car in a week with phone calls after pick up and during transport and the night B4 delivery. I'd use them again. Their price was fair as well.

Intercity Lines, last Jan to deliver my GT 40 from Conn. Good price and great service.
I would use them again.
