Report
We shipped our cars from the East coast to Hawaii. The process went extremely well. Our cars arrived on time and in pristine condition. Aside from not having much heads-up as to when the cars would be picked up on the East coast, I have no complaints. That being said, Horizon is a broker and relies on the schedule of a third party trucking company to arrive at the point of origin when they expect.
We had about one days' notice, so we had to use up some gas before the cars were loaded on the truck. Overall, great experience. Ivette was extremely helpful! I would use the. Again. There's far too many horror stories out there and Horizon was a success!

Just had my car shipped from TX to NC by Horizon Auto Shipping. The process was easy, my car was delivered in perfect condition for a very reasonable cost and, best of all, the people were professional, pleasant and a joy to work with. I would recommend Mardy and Michael to ship your car with no reservations at all.
