What Our Customers Say
Auto Transport in Edinburg, TX
Edinburg is the county seat of Hidalgo County and sits right next to McAllen in the heart of the Rio Grande Valley. Interstate 69C and US-281 connect the Valley to San Antonio, so carriers serve Edinburg and McAllen regularly. We pick up and deliver at your home, campus, dealership or RV park.
Our Valley customers include University of Texas Rio Grande Valley students, families relocating to or from the area, and many “Winter Texans”: retirees from the Midwest and Canada who spend the winter in the Valley and ship a car down in the fall and back home in the spring.
