Why does ATS charge a $2,000 minimum?
Because we’re not a broker. We’re the carrier.
Your vehicle rides on our truck, driven by our driver, insured by our policy. The $2,000 minimum reflects the true cost of a guaranteed, premium, owner-operated transport service with no middlemen.
The broker way
$2,500–$4,000
- Charges you $2,500–$4,000
- Keeps a $400–$800 commission
- Pays a carrier $1,400–$2,200 to do all the work
- You never deal with the actual driver
The ATS way
$2,000 all-in
- Direct carrier price — no commission
- One company owns the truck, driver & insurance
- You talk to the people moving your car
- Live, privacy-delayed tracking
We cut the broker out entirely — which means you get direct carrier service at a fair price, and we get fairly compensated for the work we actually do.
As we grow, rates will become more competitive. But our commitment to guaranteed, owner-operated service will never change.
