Frequently asked questions
Will this list change over time?
Yes. Public ratings move as companies collect new reviews, and Haulwide will add its own verified reviews and Scores. Past periods will stay available as archives once they close.
How are these companies ordered?
Ordered by each company's Trustpilot rating, adjusted for how many reviews it has and how recent they are, so a high rating from a handful of reviews — or from a big but dormant review history — doesn't outrank a similar rating a company is actively earning. Companies without a usable rating follow, A to Z. Haulwide doesn't host reviews yet, and no company can pay for a higher position.
Company ranking methodology
How often is this list updated?
Review figures are checked by hand and dated on the page. Once Haulwide collects its own verified reviews, companies will be ranked by Haulwide Score and refreshed every quarter.
How can I check that a car shipping company is legitimate?
Look up its USDOT or MC number in the FMCSA database to confirm active authority and insurance, read recent reviews, and be wary of anyone asking for a large deposit before a carrier is assigned.
