New to Car Hauling?

A carrier the automakers rely on, on lanes that repeat
Accelerated has hauled finished vehicles for major automakers since 1999, when Tom Montgomery founded the company with a single truck. Today it runs a fleet of more than 550 trucks across 46-plus plants, ports, and railheads. That scale means steady, dedicated freight for you, not feast or famine.
If your carrier shut down, you did not lose your skill
You still have the years of car-haul experience most carriers cannot find, and that puts you at the front of our line.
You already know how to load and secure a load of new vehicles. That means you fast-track here. No starting over. We run the same kind of work you are used to: OEM plant, port, and rail lanes for major automakers. The lanes are steady, and we move fast on experienced applicants.
