I shipped cars from FL to HI. Coastal Auto Shipping is professional always. Great communicators, and they were one of the lowest 2 of 8 price quotes. These guys are the best. Don’t waste your time worrying like I did. They can be trusted from beginning to end.

Jif

Many thanks to Gerson! I have used him twice in the past 6 months shipping vehicles from Indiana to the island of Kauai. He made the process very smooth, and anytime we have needed him, he is there immediately, nights and weekends even. If you are looking for the best prices in auto shipment and someone doing the job right, call Gerson! His customer service is spot on. Mahalo again Gerson!

Jess S.

Gerson was really helpful and offered the best price for shipping a car from Long Beach, CA to Honolulu, HI.  Kept us informed throughout the process. I usually don’t give reviews but felt it necessary to offset the loco who gave 1 star review and wrote the manifesto below about her uncle.
