Quick answer
Recommendation pending a complete audit
We are not naming an overall pick yet because Allweather Transport is still being audited. The available table is useful for checking what has been verified so far, but it is not enough to make a like-for-like recommendation.
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.

What the audited evidence says
A1 Auto Movers
5/100 · Do Not Recommend · Audited August 29, 2026
This audit gives A1 Auto Movers a score of 5/100 — Do Not Recommend. We do not currently recommend this broker based on the reviewed authority, identity, reputation, customer-experience, pricing, route, and brand evidence. The total combines 9/20 legitimacy, 4/25 reputation, 0/20 customer experience, 1/15 pricing, 2/10 route and service, and 1/10 brand evidence, with -20 in audit penalties applied. Clearest case in this batch: FMCSA authority is 'Not Authorized', and — more seriously — BBB, TransportReviews, and RealTransportReviews independently corroborate a repeated deposit-scam pattern (take a holding deposit, cancel the assigned driver, refuse to refund). A third-party reviewer also explicitly calls out likely fake five-star reviews on this company's Yelp page. This is not a thin-evidence case like A Ok Auto Transport — it's a documented-harm case, scored and penalized accordingly.

Get the terms in writing
Ask each broker for the total price, deposit and cancellation terms, pickup window, carrier information when assigned, cargo coverage, and how price changes are handled. A strong audit profile does not replace reading the agreement for your specific shipment.
