How it works
Service & contract model
Listed type: Vehicle-shipping broker
Model: RoadRunner is a vehicle-shipping broker brand. FMCSA identifies AM Freight Operations Inc as the legal entity and RoadRunner Auto Transport as its DBA, and the provider says carriers in its network move the vehicles. Confirm the contracting party and assigned carrier in the shipment documents.
Who performs the work:

The provider says an adult must release and accept the vehicle and sign pickup and delivery inspection reports. A nearby safe meeting point may be necessary when restrictions or road conditions prevent access to the requested address.
Planning fit
Availability & scope
United States — advertised nationwide, including all 50 states, subject to route and carrier availability
RoadRunner advertises service in all 50 states. Confirm the exact origin, destination, vehicle and available carrier before booking; the sources reviewed do not establish the logistics or port requirements for each Alaska or Hawaii route, or availability for international shipments. Door-to-door service may require a nearby meeting point if the truck cannot safely or legally reach the address.
Confirm the actual locations, dates and requested service; a broad label does not guarantee availability.

Things to consider
A third-party carrier transports the vehicle; the assigned carrier and its shipment-specific terms must be confirmed.
Safe and legal truck access can require a nearby pickup or delivery meeting point, and enclosed-carrier availability is more limited.
The provider advertises cancellation before pickup but the reviewed pages do not specify any associated fees or refund conditions.
Published statements about when payment is due are not fully consistent; coverage limits and detailed claim procedures were not verified.

Terms & practical checks
The calculator advertises cancellation anytime before pickup, but the reviewed sources do not state whether a cancellation fee applies, what is refundable or what happens after pickup. They also give differing descriptions of when payment is due: the homepage refers to a deposit or prepayment and payment no earlier than the scheduled-pickup day, while the calculator advertises no upfront deposit and separately says payment is due at delivery only. Confirm the binding quote, payment schedule, cancellation and refund rules in the current written order. For damage, the homepage says the bill of lading is needed for an insurance claim; claim deadlines, the claim recipient and dispute terms were not verified.
Ask who contracts for the service and who actually performs the work. Confirm the inventory, dates, route, access and services in writing.
Compare estimate type, included charges, deposits, change fees and cancellation terms. Ask how loss or damage claims are handled.
If storage is involved, confirm its location, access, duration, charges, redelivery and protection terms.
Protection & claims
RoadRunner says shipments include basic liability coverage during transit, and that additional comprehensive coverage options are available during booking. These are provider descriptions, not independently verified insurance or a guarantee that a claim will be paid. Limits, deductibles, exclusions, policyholder and the assigned carrier's insurance were not verified. The provider says personal belongings in the vehicle are not covered if damaged or missing; request the applicable policies and claim instructions before booking.
If your move includes an interstate household-goods carrier, ask about its valuation options. Carrier valuation describes the carrier’s liability for loss or damage; it is not insurance. Separate insurance is a different product with its own terms and exclusions.
