Asset car-hauler capacity you can tender to.
If you place vehicles for a living, what you want from a small carrier is simple: clean authority, real insurance, a truck that shows up, and someone who answers the phone at four in the afternoon. We haul vehicles on our own open car haulers with our own drivers, and we never re-broker them. Here is everything you need to put us in your system today.
Illustrative photography — not Prime Trans equipment.What does a broker or 3PL need to onboard a car hauler?
A broker or 3PL typically needs a signed carrier packet, a W-9, a certificate of insurance naming it as certificate holder with the per-vehicle cargo limit shown, proof of active FMCSA motor-carrier authority, and payment details. Most of it can be sent the same day the relationship starts.
Everything, in one email.

Be specific and we will be reliable.
- Southeast vehicle capacityDaily across the Southeast, from a single unit on a low pro to a full high-mount load.
- Scheduled long lanesCarolinas to Dallas and Carolinas to Houston three to four times a week; Carolinas to Minneapolis twice a week. Tender the return legs too. Anywhere else in the lower 48 on request.
- Auction pickupsWe hold accounts with Manheim, America's Auto Auction, Copart, IAA and ADESA (Carvana), and take OPENLANE marketplace units, so releases and pickup check-ins go through without a phone tree. See Auction transport.
- Subhaul for haulaway carriersOverflow and outlying deliveries for carriers holding dealer, remarketing or OEM work. We have no OEM contract of our own and we are actively pursuing this work. See OEM & haulaway.
- Exporter deliveriesAuction units delivered to exporters' loading warehouses and consolidation yards, never into a port terminal. See Export vehicles.
- Dedicated lanesAward us a lane and we will staff it. That is the business we want most. See Dedicated lanes.
Saves us both a phone call.
- We do not re-broker vehicles. A vehicle tendered to MC 1575910 rides on our truck with our driver. No exceptions.
- We do not haul freight. No van, reefer or flatbed on our own authority. Please do not tender it to us as a carrier.
- We do not accept loads we cannot cover. If the trucks are committed, the answer in the first sentence is no.
- We do not take damaged-battery EVs. A compromised high-voltage battery is a hazardous-materials move.
- We do not renegotiate at the gate. The rate confirmation is the rate.
- We do not go quiet. A problem is reported when it happens, not discovered at delivery.
Honest scope: we are 8 trucks. We will never be your surge capacity for sixty units on a Friday. We can be the car hauler you stop worrying about on a lane you tender every week, and that is a better relationship for both of us.
Straight answers
Do you haul the vehicles yourselves?
Yes. Every vehicle tendered to MC 1575910 rides on one of our own car haulers with one of our own drivers, and it is never re-brokered. Our separate broker authority, which is still pending, is for freight and enclosed moves only.
Are you set up in RMIS?
Our registration status across the major carrier-onboarding programmes is listed in plain language on the compliance page, including which ones are still pending. We would rather show you a pending line than claim a registration we do not hold.
What are your payment terms?
Net 15 for approved accounts. The W-9 and remit-to details are in the carrier packet, which can be in your inbox the same day.
Can you provide tracking?
Check calls at pickup, midpoint and delivery if your customer needs them, and we will work with a tracking platform if you name it at tender rather than after dispatch.
What is your claims process?
Report within twenty-four hours, acknowledged within forty-eight, handled under Carmack liability with the eBOL photographs from both ends as the record. The full process is written out on the compliance page.
