Anyone know of a good company that can transport a lifted dually? I hear mixed things about uship so was looking for a reference. I did call Jeff but he doesn't do auto's anymore.

Thanks in advance

@RichieRich has a buddy. A couple of people have used him and made good comments about his services

The problem with a large one ton is that it is heavy and large. Most auto transport companies will charge you for two spots on the truck since it weighs the same as two cars if not more. Depending on how far you need to go it may make sense to drive it there and fly back.

I don't have the time for that drive or else I would.

I used UShip to ship my lifted one ton Dodge Ram from North Carolina to Arizona. Came in a dropdeck with half up on front and cost me $1500. I had no luck anywhere else. To tall and to heavy for normal auto carriers.

Sorry about that. He told me could not meet your time schedule.

Thank you for the lead, yea just bad timing is all but he sounded very professional on the phone.

Its about 6' 10" tall and tire to tire is 8' 7" wide.
