About Mercury Auto Transport
Founded in 2007, Mercury Auto Transport has grown into one of the most trusted and experienced names in the auto shipping industry. With thousands of successful transports nationwide, we understand what matters most: honesty, reliability, and a seamless process from start to finish.
We are committed to delivering top-quality, no-pressure service. Personalized service is at the heart of what we do. We take the time to educate our customers, explain how the industry works, and provide real, transparent tips so you feel confident in every decision.
History
Mercury Auto Transport was founded in 2007 by a team who had worked inside the auto shipping industry and saw firsthand how often customers were misled or left disappointed. We knew the industry could do better. We built a company focused on honesty, transparency, and real customer care.
Founder
Mercury has been independently owned and led by founder Matt Sandomir since 2007. No private equity, no outsourced call center. The same team that built our carrier screening process is the team that answers the phone.
Values
Our values guide every decision we make and shape the culture of our team. Integrity, transparency, generosity, and kindness have always been the foundation of how we operate. These principles have helped us grow into one of America’s most trusted auto transport companies.
Mission
Our mission is to elevate how the auto shipping industry operates. We do this by offering fair market pricing, verifying every carrier, and managing logistics with honesty and accountability. For us, transparency is the standard.
Roadmap
In our early years our focus was simply on creating a better, more reliable auto shipping experience for customers. Today, customers are matched with carriers vetted through Mercury Shield, ensuring a higher standard of communication, reliability, and overall service quality.
How We’re Different
We operate through Mercury Shield, our internal carrier-screening and shipment-oversight process. Every carrier is sourced through Central Dispatch and other national dispatch tools, then verified for active authority, insurance, and track record before your vehicle is assigned.
Flexible Pickup Options
Choose the pickup window that fits your timeline and budget. Your agent confirms the details before your vehicle is dispatched.
One Payment, One Contract
You pay by card or secure bank transfer directly to Mercury — never to unknown drivers or cash apps.
Private, Secure Matching
Mercury sources carriers through Central Dispatch and other national dispatch tools, then screens every response through Mercury Shield before any carrier is assigned to your shipment.
Real People, Real Oversight
Our team monitors every step from dispatch to delivery with full accountability.
America’s Auto Shipping Experts
At Mercury, we work only with fully vetted, reputable carriers. Every driver is checked for ratings, references, insurance, and compliance before they are ever considered for your shipment. You get peace of mind knowing your vehicle is placed in the hands of a trusted professional.
Stress-Free Shipping, Every Step of the Way
Our job is to connect you with the most reliable driver at a fair market price. We manage all the research, verification, and negotiations. You simply review and approve each step, ensuring a smooth, predictable, and hassle-free experience.
Real Quotes, Never Lowball Estimates
Many companies attract customers with lowball estimates, leaving vehicles priced too low to be picked up. We prevent that by providing accurate, market-driven pricing from the start. No games, no bait-and-switch.
We Handle Everything, You Just Approve
Our team does the heavy lifting: verifying carriers, monitoring the market, negotiating rates, and coordinating timing. Nothing moves without your confirmation, so there are never surprises — only a smooth, secure transport from pickup to delivery.
