Trucking Companies

I'm in the last stage; BMW site even updated to show "Finishing Touches".

I've seen the name Waggoners, and I've contacted them. They don't currently have my VIN in their system.

For anyone interested, here is their number:
Waggoners Trucking 800 999 9097


What are the other/various trucking companies used to move cars from Port to Dealership?

Thanks.

I confirmed mine is with Waggoners Trucking - going from Brunswick to Austin. It has been released to them but, as of this morning, was not yet on a truck. I spoke with a very nice woman at the company and she looked up other recent, similar trips. She indicated it could be 2-3 days from release to getting on a truck; then, 2-3 days travel to dealership.

Guess I won't be playing this weekend....

Update: turns out my car got on a truck this morning. But, it's not with Waggoners (I called them and they said it was transferred to another carrier).

Anyone know which other trucking companies carry BMWs from East to West?

Thanks.

Do you know how long your car was in Brunswick? Mine rolls off the California Highway there today/tonight and I'm trying to guess when it will be in Memphis.

My ship, Athens Highway, arrived in Brunswick last Wednesday 8/8. It was "released to carrier" (trucking) on Monday 8/13. Got on a truck and began moving today, Wednesday 8/15 at 10:05am.

So, mine was one week between arrival in port and on the road to dealer. CA "expects to see car probably on Friday". And he said if they get it early enough Friday, then Saturday delivery won't be a problem.

Good luck with yours.

My vehicle was on California Highway as well, which arrived into Brunswick yesterday. I'm hopeful that maybe I'll have my vehicle at my Lakeland/Tampa Fields dealer by the end of next week? The waiting is killing me!!!!
