How to use this comparison
Choose based on your shipment—not a headline score alone
The score is a useful starting point, but price certainty, vehicle type, pickup urgency, and the quality of the assigned carrier matter too. We compare audited signals instead of selling rank positions, then link to the underlying broker reports so you can verify the evidence before you request quotes.

Broker-by-broker analysis
What the audited evidence says
A Across USA Auto Transport
12/100 · Do Not Recommend · Audited August 29, 2026
This audit gives A Across USA Auto Transport a score of 12/100 — Do Not Recommend. We do not currently recommend this broker based on the reviewed authority, identity, reputation, customer-experience, pricing, route, and brand evidence.

Not a documented-harm case like A1 Auto Movers, but disqualifying on its own terms: currently 'Not Authorized' by FMCSA (cannot legally broker right now), nonfunctional website, no working email, and essentially no review footprint anywhere to verify service quality. 35 years of registered history doesn't offset a currently non-operational-looking presence. Recommend re-checking FMCSA status directly before any further consideration.
