Pick this company if you want your car transported correctly and for the price they quoted for! Awesome driver and company, got my car picked up on schedule and dropped off on schedule, will definitely be using again for all my car transport needs !
There was clear and concise communication throughout the shipping process. I appreciated working with Haulify and Darius because the quote given did not change and the driver assignment was quick, on time and easy. I recommend this company above others. (I have shipped my car several times to other states using different services.) My experience has never been this seamless so I will be using Haulify again!
Great communication. I felt secure as they transported my car, I truly feel confident in them. I recommend using this company, the quoted price doesn’t change and they work with you within the outlined timeframe.
We had to have three cars hauled with a little bit of a short notice on scheduling but Darius got us sorted out for a fair cost, without any problems, and our cars showed up just how they left and when they said they would. I never shipped a car before and the process with Haulify and the skilled assistance of Darius made it pretty easy. I would definitely use Haulify again.
I highly recommend them! They're excellent, and I'll never work with any other company again. They fully deserve what they charge.
Awesome service and transparent. I appreciate the prompt response
Excellent communication!
True Professionals here, they gave me a price and a timeline and stuck to it...It's very rare these days with these type of services...I'd use Haulify again in a second and recommend them to anyone considering moving their vehicles.
Fast service
I am a repeat customer of Haulify and cannot recommend them highly enough!!! Both times I used Haulify to transport my vehicles cross country, and both times I was so impressed. Not only was the process timely (and both times my vehicle arrived precisely on time), but the communication throughout the process was impeccable. I will never use another company to transport my vehicles ever again, and I look forward to giving Haulify my business in the future when the need arises. Hands down the best out there!
Haulify was unreal from start to finish. I shipped a vehicle from San Diego to Chicago, and the entire process was smooth, transparent, and stress-free. Their communication was top-tier — constant updates, quick responses, and zero guesswork at any point. They did exactly what they said they would do, when they said they'd do it, which is rare in vehicle transport. Pickup and delivery were on time, the car arrived in perfect condition, and the execution overall was extremely professional. You can tell they actually care about doing things the right way, not just moving cars. If you're looking for a company that combines excellent communication, reliability, and flawless execution, Haulify is it.
I give haulify an A+. They were awesome to work with and everything went very smoothly. Very good communication. I'd recommend them in a heartbeat
Thank you so much Darius was s amazing with helping me process everything, replied to every call or text and. Kept me informed I have received my truck just yet but I will def be packing for part two. This guy is always at work never missed a call ❤️
Without question this is the best company I've ever worked with when it comes to relocating a vehicle. The customer service was immaculate making the drop off/pick up of my vehicle seamless. I have to travel a bit, from time to time, and utilizing my own vehicle makes the most sense so I will 100% be using their services again. Highly recommend.
Fast reliable service & on time. Thank you for the great service & customer service.

The cost to ship a car to or from South Dakota depends on the mileage, vehicle size and condition, transport type, timing, season, and exact pickup and delivery locations. Loads near Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Aberdeen, and Brookings or I-90, I-29, and US-14 may be easier to coordinate than remote locations in the Black Hills, central South Dakota, and rural communities. Use Haulify’s car shipping cost calculator for a route-specific estimate rather than a flat statewide price.
Transit time depends primarily on total mileage, the carrier’s route, scheduled stops, and pickup or delivery access. A nearby regional move may take only a few days after pickup, while cross-country car shipping can take a week or more. In South Dakota, winter storms, high winds, long rural distances, and limited carrier density may also affect timing. Haulify provides a pickup window and delivery estimate for the specific route.
Open car transport is the most common and economical option for standard cars, trucks, and SUVs. Enclosed auto transport adds protection from ordinary weather and road exposure and is often selected for classic, luxury, exotic, restored, or low-clearance vehicles. In South Dakota, winter storms, high winds, long rural distances, and limited carrier density may influence your preference, but the vehicle’s value and protection needs should guide the final choice.
Yes. Door-to-door auto transport can be coordinated throughout South Dakota, including the areas around Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Aberdeen, and Brookings. However, a full-size carrier needs a safe, legal, and accessible place to stop. If a street, driveway, bridge, or rural road cannot accommodate the truck, the driver may arrange a nearby meeting point along I-90, I-29, and US-14 or at a large paved commercial location.
Yes. Remote or mountain-area shipments may need a wider pickup window or a meeting point near I-90, I-29, or another truck-accessible route. Door-to-door car shipping serves the requested area as closely as safe road access and carrier routing allow.
Yes. Student car shipping can be arranged for South Dakota State University, the University of South Dakota, South Dakota Mines, and other schools. Book early because carrier options may be more limited outside Sioux Falls and the interstate corridors.
Yes. Haulify can ship a car to another state from South Dakota or coordinate delivery into South Dakota from anywhere in the supported nationwide network. Routes connecting Sioux Falls, Rapid City, Aberdeen, and Brookings with major markets are often easier to schedule, while rural origins or destinations may need a broader pickup window. For a long-distance move, provide the exact ZIP codes, vehicle condition, and preferred dates.
Booking one to two weeks ahead is a useful starting point for standard South Dakota auto transport, and earlier is better during summer moves, holidays, severe-weather seasons, or other high-demand periods. If your schedule is tight, expedited auto transport may prioritize carrier assignment and pickup. It can improve speed, but availability and safe travel conditions still depend on the route.
