we had pick up scheduled for four cars I gave them a $300 deposit They were unresponsive at the time of pick up eventually, they only picked up two out of the four cars And when the driver arrived, they demanded $600 more than the agreed amount the driver said that shine auto movers never gave them the deposit Basically shine auto pack at 300 and screwed me over by not picking up the cars in addition, I have to pay an extra $600

Even though I read some poor reviews about price changes, I thought I made the correct revisions to the contract to ensure this would not happen. It did. I was informed the original truck was delayed with a fuel pump issue, true or not, and the only available truck was now more expensive, by $300. After texts and calls, the number was lowered to $160 if pick up was same day. Then upon arrival, I was told I needed to pay an additional $500 for insurance and taxes to get the car delivered. That the original contract where I took out any additional fees was not valid with the new truck. So, after texts, screaming, hang ups and calls, an additional $250 was paid and the car was delivered. These guys are total scam artists and have it down to a science. AVOID...Truck driver was Russian and acted like he did not speak english but bet that was a scam as well. AVOID these assholes.

We take these kinds of accusations very seriously, but this review is not an accurate representation of how our company operates. We do not engage in scams, hidden fees, or fraudulent practices of any kind. All charges, including insurance or additional costs, are clearly explained before a shipment is confirmed. Price changes can occur only if there are last-minute changes in carrier availability or logistics, and customers are always notified before any adjustment is made. We also work only with licensed and insured carriers who follow all federal and state regulations. We encourage the reviewer to contact our office directly with their order details so we can review the facts. Our goal has always been transparency and customer satisfaction, and we stand by the integrity of our process.

They are liars & thieves. I am sure that this is fraudulent misrepresentations. They quote a small price, ask for a small deposit & when you call to confirm pickup date, they have raised the price four times the amount & refuse to refund your deposit. Run as fast as you can AWAY from this company.

We’re sorry to hear about your frustration, but this review contains incorrect information. Our company does not engage in fraudulent or deceptive practices. All pricing and deposit details are clearly explained to customers before confirming any order. Quotes are based on current market rates, and any changes are always communicated in advance — never after pickup scheduling. We take honesty and transparency very seriously and encourage the reviewer to contact our customer service team directly so we can investigate this matter and clarify any misunderstanding.

Don’t trust they need money, if you are moving your in a hurry deadline, please read terms and conditions the broker fee. Ask the broker fee they won’t tell you broker fee unless they take your car. Best to drive by yourself to the location. This is a bait and many would fall for it including me.

This company is scamming people. I have had the worst experience with them. The way they get you is by telling you to not contact anyone else because they will end up giving you the run around and say truck is broke down and try to get you on another truck that is carrying fewer vehicles and charge you more. That’s exactly what they did to me. The day of the pick up the driver was supposedly 57 miles out hauling 8-9 cars and had a maintenance issue with the truck. This was on Thursday of last week. They couldn’t get the part for 4 days so the dispatcher/broker suggested a 2 car haul or a 1 car enclosed. I told him no this is what I could pay. So then he calls back and schedules a 5 car hauler on Monday we had a set price signed agreement and with understanding there were no hidden fees. I have text messages and recorded calls. When the driver finally got there almost 10 hours later he came in an 8 car hauler. They never asked for my ID or title/ registration of car so I could very well have been stealing a car and having it transported. They didn’t provide insurance information nor was I allowed to have the drivers phone number. If you don’t have tracking/gps on your vehicle or disabling you won’t know where your car is because as advertised they don’t provide any of that. I tracked my vehicle the whole time. The driver drove 45 min and parked for about 10 hrs. The next day the dispatcher/brokers sent over a revised contracted adding 800 more dollars and wanted me to pay that before the driver would go any further. I had already had a deposit for the pick up that didn’t occur on Thursday. Thats not including the 1000 cashing delivery I was going to have to give the driver. The dispatcher kept saying they would take my car to a storage yard until I paid. So a 1000 haul turned it to almost 2000 haul. When I told him I had the message and recorded calls he kept saying we can drop to 1600 we can drop to 1500 and that’s the lowest. They literally harassed me to use my credit card to send more money. Even pretended to be the driver and say he was waiting on clearance paperwork to drive my car any further. When I told him he was basically hauling a stolen vehicle because it was in my dads name his attorney has already drawn up paperwork to go to whatever storage yard the vehicle is in and get the car without paying anything because he didn’t authorize the transport the broker got nervous us and said we won’t be dropping it off but the driver will change his route and keep the car until you pay. Long story short I paid additional 200 just because they were being greedy. All this transpired with the dispatcher calling my phone and my moms phone at 2am in the morning treating to change route. When I told him the driver would not be able to move my car because I disabled the engine and have been tracking it the whole time and they were 2 hours away he was furious. Driver made it here this morning and I told him these criminals are gonna get him in some trouble. He said they never gave him my number and he only gets less than half the cash on delivery he has to immediately send it in to them. He said they do everybody like that pick up vehicle and call the next day with new contract. They are scammers and I will be writing the same review for the next 30 days. You will have the same broker calling and texting from 3 different numbers. When I said let me speak to supervisor he is supervisor oh well. Then will pretend to be driver also texting and saying he is waiting on clearance paperwork. Beware this is the worst company to use when having anything shipped. They will wear you down by making excuses for truck issues and suggest something else and still have you held up and disparate. Don’t fall in on it look somewhere else and always ask to see a basic contract before you sign the contract they send. So you will have back UP if they try to change something like they did. I only signed the original contract for 680 then had to sign another contract 1180 after the lie of first truck braking down. The next day after my car was picked up the sent of a contract for 1880 revised. SCAMMERS

Dear J. Knight, We are truly sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction and we take your concerns very seriously. At Shine Auto Movers LLC, our goal is always to provide transparent, reliable, and professional vehicle transport services. We would like to clarify a few important points: All fees, including broker service charges and carrier delivery balances, are clearly outlined in the signed contract prior to pickup. No charges are ever added without customer authorization. In your case, you personally paid the $200 broker service fee after reviewing the paperwork and understanding that this fee was part of the agreed service terms. Vehicle transport can sometimes face unexpected logistical issues such as carrier breakdowns, reassignments, or route changes. While we understand how frustrating this can be, our dispatch team always works to secure alternative carriers as quickly as possible to avoid further delays. Regarding driver communication, for safety and insurance compliance, drivers typically coordinate through dispatch. However, customers are always encouraged to track their vehicle and can request status updates at any time. We understand that your experience felt stressful, and we sincerely apologize if our communication did not meet your expectations during the process. Please know that your vehicle was delivered safely and securely, and the fees charged were exactly as agreed in the contract. We value your feedback and will use it to continue improving our customer experience. If you would like to discuss this further, please reach out to us directly at [email protected]. Sincerely, John Bryce Customer Relations Shine Auto Movers LLC
