Great company; easy to work with

Mateo and his company were great. My car made it to the destination on time and they were easy to work with. It was a great price for the miles that I needed the car transported from and they made sure that I was satisfied. He communicated with me well throughout the entire process. I will use them again in the future.

Moving my 1969 Chevy Chevelle

My experience was no less than wonderful. I worked with Paige Evans and she was very helpful. Their cost was very reasonable and Paige would keep me informed the whole process though. I ran into a situation withe the original dates and she without hesitation found me another driver who delivered the car early and it was perfect. This is my second car to move, first with Sonic, I will definitely use them again!

Great experience

I used Sonic Transportation to carry my car from Colorado to California, I was very satisfied with the perfect condition of the car and fast delivery. I wasn’t very flexible with the time to deliver, but they adjusted themselves and made everything in the exact time I wanted. Very attentive to details, great customer service, and very helpful overall. Highly recommend this company.

Sonic Auto Transport Review

I had my wife and I's car shipped from Orlando, Florida to Columbus, Ohio. It was a stress free and a fast experience with this company. All the questions I had were answered and I left each conversation feeling confident in my decision with using Sonic Auto as my car transport. Miles was my customer service agent and he did a excellent job in explaining the overall process. I give him and this company a 5 out of 5, as well as the truck driver.

Long-distance move from Monroe, IA to Carbondale, IL

Use Sonic and ask for Diego

Once I tried to get a quote I was overwhelmed with companies calling and emailing. Most were way too high on price and would then bad mouth other companies. Sonic popped up with a great price so I tried them. I was helped by Diego. He was awesome and helped me every step of the way. He didn't bad mouth anyone and got me the cheapest price of everyone. My car got here in the time frame I was told and the driver was great. I would recommend using Sonic and dealing with Diego to anyone looking to transport a car.

Long-distance move from Washington to Florida

Difficult Move!

Difficult Move!

Clinton Blair was my representative at Sonic and he did an amazing job through a series of difficult situations related to my car. I shipped my car from Washington to Florida and the day before it was to be picked up, the driver assigned to my transport called and said his insurance had been cancelled. Clinton immediately got a hold of me and said he was working on my case as his main focus. He was able to find another driver and my car was picked up late that night. During the 4,000 mile transit move, the driver had two major breakdowns and then in GA, he was involved in a major accident that did significant damage to his vehicle. During this whole process, Clinton kept in touch with me, even when the driver wasn't. My car finally arrived 8 days after it was scheduled to arrive, and it was not damaged. Again Clinton checked in with me and made sure my car was okay. He was the bright spot in a very difficult car move and I recommend Clinton highly.
