Progress Auto Relocation Inc. is a broker on Central Dispatch who is brokering cars to carriers taking a broker fee from the truck driver and the customers.  

Example:  Total Rate charged from California to North East = $1500.00
Progressive Auto Relocation Inc. took a deposit via credit card from customer $250.00
Progressive  A.R. Inc. also request that the owner operator/transporter pay forward a broker fee of $250.00 when vehicle gets delivered to the customer who set up the contract with the broker.

The owner operator gets paid $1000.00 to deliver the vehicle; although it's a good rate considering fuel prices - the customer is a victim of paying  $500.00 TOO MUCH.  

(the customer doesn't know about this unless the customer asks the driver to see the dispatch sheet and all the terms and conditions of the contract) 

The broker should only be making $50-$75.00 to make arrangements to broker out a vehicle to a carrier.  The customer doesn't talk to the broker only to set up the contract and if there are any problems that may arise during transit.  But other than the set up - a  5 min conversation doesn't cost $500.00.

This is FRAUD!  DO NOT USE  Progressive Auto Relocation Inc. - Miami, FL

Look at your contracts and DO NOT PAY with a credit card as a deposit.

Never again will I use a BROKER to move my vehicle(s) - I will call an owner operator directly.

Also BE-AWARE that brokers include titles such as " Auto Transport " to trick you into thinking they are actually transporting your vehicles when actually they brokered it out to another carrier.  IF you have to put a DEPOSIT via credit card - your paying a broker.  Don't be fooled.

Good Luck!
