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
Auto Haul Express LLC or AutoCarShip LLC
49/100 · Limited Confidence · Audited August 26, 2026
This audit gives Auto Haul Express LLC or AutoCarShip LLC a score of 49/100 — Limited Confidence. We do not currently recommend this broker based on the reviewed authority, identity, reputation, customer-experience, pricing, route, and brand evidence. The total combines 14/20 legitimacy, 14/25 reputation, 11/20 customer experience, 5/15 pricing, 5/10 route and service, and 6/10 brand evidence, with -6 in audit penalties applied. Genuinely mixed picture, not a clear scam: many named customers report good communication and on-time delivery. But a specific, credible complaint describes price roughly doubling after a deposit was paid, and multiple customers reference confusion over the company operating under several names. Per audit philosophy (penalize repeated pricing/trust issues aggressively), a Medium penalty (-6) is applied on top of an already-modest raw score. Young company (2 yrs) — worth re-auditing in 6-12 months as more review history accumulates rather than treating this as final.
