Well with all that's going on, you're better off taking a cheap one way flight there and driving it back to Houston. That's assuming it is running...

Have you tried Uship.com? I'd had them set up shipping for 2 bikes - no complaints.

Any modern shipping method for vehicles will run you $700 at the least. If you are trying to be economical about it, drive it back personally. If you don't mind dropping some coin, but you are worried about security of the vehicle, give rccarlson22 a shout and maybe he can work a deal with you... He owns his own hotshot company.

I can get freight to Phoenix then bring your car back?

Sorry for the late reply as I don't come around much any more, but I got tired of dicking around with the shipping companies quoting $800 and then coming back saying $1000. I just drove out there and tow dollied it back.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you to get out there and back home? Not factoring in your physical time.

Almost everyone faces the car shipping problem. Well, this is not exactly a problem, but it is important to find a reliable car shipping company. Besides, you don't want to break your bank in order to ship the car, so you still need to find an affordable car shipping service.
I am not sure if Shippa works all around the USA, but as I understood, they do. So, I'd recommend hiring the Shippa car shipping company.
If you check vehicle shipping quotes, you will notice that Shippa is among the most affordable service providers, but at the same time, they are among the most trusted companies in this industry.

Just saw this. I think total was about $300-400.

There are a few different ways to ship your car from Phoenix to Houston. One option would be to drive it yourself. This is probably the most economical option, but it takes your time and effort. If you're not up for driving the car yourself, you could look into hiring a car shipping company. As a great experience with jdm imports, this is the safest method. This is a bit more expensive than driving the car, but it's much less hassle. A few different car shipping companies operate in the Phoenix area, so you should be able to find one that fits your budget.
