About Auto Express Inc.—Real Car Haulers. Real Experience. 25+ Years on the Road.
Over 40 Years of Vehicle Shipping Experience
Our Story—Built on the Road, Not in a Boardroom
Auto Express Inc. started in Long Island, NY—a market most drivers avoided. We fearlessly traversed the entire country, accustomed to every challenge we faced in those places. Our first 10-car carrier had no A/C, and we drove it cross-country during the hottest week of summer. We didn’t stop then, and we haven’t stopped since.
Today, Auto Express Inc. is headquartered in San Diego, CA, with 28+ locations nationwide. For the last 2 decades, driving and building relationships have made us the best solution in vehicle shipping—covering auto transport, exotic & classic car shipping, open & enclosed transport, heavy equipment, motorcycle shipping, marine transport, and more.
