Suggestions for a car transporter from Canada to USA?

Does anyone have any recommendations for a transport company that can ship a car from Van to Cali?

I've called a million companies in the States, but seem most dont ship from Canada to USA. I've found two that do, but after doing some research I've found out one had REALLY bad reviews. The other had good reviews but didn't seem to be very knowledgable.

I called Hansen's which is local but they want like double what U.S. companies charge.

A lot of places will not ship direct to USA due to the importation process.

You can try uShip to find a private importer/transporter. Good luck.

I know most won't. I'm just looking for a company to deal with everything.

Supposedly, Canadian company drops off at border with paperwork, then US company takes over from there. I've only been able to find 3 companies that'll do it.

One being the super shady 1 out of 5 star rating, one not knowing much about it, and the canadian one want's double what the US companies want.

Just hoping someone would know a company that's knowledgable but doesn't charge an arm and a leg.

I'd just drive it to washington just accross the border and have them pick it up there. Just like plane tickets so much cheaper if u deal with the border part yourself.
