Great service would love to work with again.
Crystal Evans was very helpful.
Crystal Evans was very helpful.
Smart Auto Move was professional and efficient in delivering my vehicle. From scheduling the pick up to the on-time delivery, I was satisfied with the overall service. Thank you Smart Auto Move for making my auto transport seamless.
Smart Auto Move was a positive experience! The payment never changed and the delivery style (inside/outside) didn't vary either which was a relief. I shipped two cars and they were picked up 3 and 4 days early which isn't a huge deal but I did have to move some plans around. Both drivers were so kind, careful, and communicative. I would fully recommend them and use them again!
Great communication through the transaction, car picked up and delivered as requested.
Thank you.

My car travelled TN to CA. Driver was professional and very communicative about pick up and drop off logistics. Main office gave a high level of service in booking and follow up. I enthusiastically recommend Smart Auto Move.
