Default Transport from Florida to Colorado- who do you recommend?
I want to transport two cars from Tampa Bay, Florida to Colorado.
I prefer to ship them enclosed if the cost premium isn't prohibitive. Can you recommend some enclosed and open transporters?

Reliable Transport. Had mine shipped from Washington State to PA in an enclosed trailer.

Intercity Lines. Jay Leno uses them. I just did and was happy with them. Not sure how they compare price wise.

I would pass on DAS ( if they are still around)... they let something hang down and rub the paint off my roof one time.

Plycar Transportation - literally - white glove treatment and their enclosed trailers are spotless!
