After 25+ years in auto transport and months of building, I’m proud to say: the all-new American Auto Shipping website and AI Marketplace are officially live. This isn’t a facelift. This is a complete ground-up rebuild of how vehicle shipping works — and I want to walk you through every bit of it.
Look, I’ve been in this industry since 1999. I’ve watched the auto transport business go from phone books and fax machines to lead-gen sites that promised transparency but really just sold your phone number to five different brokers. That model was broken then, and it’s broken now. We built something different.
The centerpiece of everything new is our AI-powered Marketplace. Here’s how it works: you list your shipment — whether it’s a car, a motorcycle, a boat, heavy equipment, household goods, or general freight — and our AI engine scans thousands of carrier routes in real time. It finds carriers who already have open spots on their trucks heading your direction. Those carriers bid on your load directly. No middlemen. No inflated broker markups. We’re talking savings of up to 75% compared to what traditional shippers charge, because we’re filling empty space that already exists on trucks that are already rolling.
For carriers, the marketplace is free to use. You browse loads, set up auto-bidding rules so the AI bids on matching loads for you 24/7, get proximity alerts when loads post near your current location, and get paid within 48 hours of delivery — not the 30 to 60 days the old broker model made you wait. We charge a flat 5% marketplace fee only when you complete a delivery. That’s it. No subscription. No lead fees. No games.
The new website itself is a complete rebuild too. We moved off WordPress and onto a modern platform that’s faster, cleaner, and built for the way people actually search for auto transport today. Every state has its own page. Every major city has its own page. We’ve got detailed guides for every transport type — open, enclosed, door-to-door, expedited, military, cross-country, you name it. We’ve got vehicle-specific pages for everything from sedans to exotic cars to heavy equipment. And every single one of those pages actually loads in under a second, which is more than I can say for most auto transport websites out there.
We also built out real tools for businesses. If you’re a dealership, a fleet manager, a rental car company, or an auction house, we’ve got dedicated account managers, volume-based pricing, API integration, real-time fleet tracking, recurring scheduling, analytics dashboards, and net-30 payment terms. This is enterprise-grade logistics infrastructure that used to cost six figures to build in-house. Now it’s on our platform, ready to go.
The concierge services are still here — because some things shouldn’t change. Every customer still gets a personal concierge from quote to delivery. We still offer a complimentary car wash before and after delivery. And if your delivery goes past 14 days, we’ll cover a rental car. That’s not marketing fluff, that’s a guarantee we’ve honored since day one.
What I’m most proud of, honestly, is the transparency. In this industry, there’s always been a game of quoting low to get the booking, then calling you back with a higher price. We don’t do that. Our AI generates binding quotes based on real-time market conditions — actual carrier availability, actual route demand, actual pricing data. What you see is what you pay. Period.
We’ve shipped over 182,000 vehicles. We’ve generated over 786,000 quotes. We’ve maintained a BBB A+ rating and earned recognition from CNN Underscored as ‘Best for Customer Support,’ Forbes Top 5, and US News. Those aren’t bought placements — those are earned. And with this new platform, we’re just getting started.
So whether you’re shipping your first car across the country, moving heavy equipment to a job site, or running a 500-vehicle fleet — go check out the new site. List a shipment on the marketplace. See what the carriers bid. I think you’ll be surprised at how different this feels from every other auto shipping experience you’ve had. Welcome to the new American Auto Shipping. We built this for you.
