What We Haul

Transport Services

Mainly full and partial loads for dealerships and auto auctions — one truckload or a standing weekly lane. Every load is strapped by our own trained drivers and covered by full cargo insurance.

Dealer & Auction Loads

Full and partial loads between dealerships and auctions. Standing lanes welcome — ask about weekly runs.

Full & Partial Loads

Nine units or three. Our biggest rigs run full to dealers, and partial loads ride along lanes we're already running — so you don't wait to fill a truck.

Fleet & Rental Relocation

Rental agencies, fleet managers, and rideshare fleets — we reposition vehicles in volume, on your schedule.

Fully Insured & Bonded

Every vehicle rides under full cargo coverage with condition reports at pickup and delivery. No surprises.

Simple Process

How It Works

1

Request a Quote

Tell us the pickup, delivery, and how many units. We price it same-day — no brokers, no middlemen markup.

2

We Schedule Pickup

Dispatch matches your load to the right trailer — single flatbed up to a 9-car hauler — and confirms a pickup window that works for you.

3

Inspection & Load

Your driver documents vehicle condition, loads, and straps it down the right way.

4

Delivered & Signed Off

Track your load in transit and sign off at delivery with a matching condition report.

Company-Owned Equipment

Our Fleet Does the Talking

We're not a broker posting your car to a load board. Southern Transport has been an authorized interstate carrier since 2014 — every vehicle we move rides on our own equipment, driven by our own team out of Cleveland, Tennessee.

  • A full range of company-owned trailers — single-car flatbeds, 3-car haulers, up to 9-car rigs
  • 10+ company drivers, DOT-compliant and background checked
  • Active FMCSA authority: USDOT #2464520 · MC #960954
  • Soft straps and wheel nets — no chains through your frame
