Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

My name is Eric Ray, the CEO, and Founder of Easy Auto Ship LLC, a nationwide vehicle shipping brokerage located in Youngstown, Ohio. About 80% of our business is shipping POV (privately owned vehicles) for the end consumer, and the rest is for dealerships and relocation companies.

Our job is to find out the requirements and details of why and when someone needs to ship a vehicle and then locate a qualified carrier to do that job. For these services, we charge a broker fee of generally around 200 dollars. Most of the time, the carrier is paid COD (cash on delivery) by the customer when the vehicle is delivered and the inspection report is signed off on by both parties.

We average around $250,000 a month in brokerage fees with a net profit of $100,000 a month. We are ranked as the Best Overall Car Shipping Company of 2020 on Move.org, as well as Movebuddha.com, with over Sorry, you need to login and/or become a member to view the rest of this content.
