RideShipper for Android

RideShipper for Android is free, has no ads and no in-app payment, and needs Android 9 or later. The developer is World Media Group LLC. It does the same job as RideShipper for iPhone.

What the app does#

You get a price range before any personal details. Enter the pickup and delivery ZIP codes or cities, choose the vehicle, and set the first date the car is available. The app shows a range for open and for enclosed transport, the estimated days in transit, what the range is based on, and its date. It is the same estimate as on this website: see how price estimates are made. Routes with an ocean leg, such as Hawaii, need a company quote, so the app says so and does not print a road price. A range is an estimate, not a company's binding offer.

You can check a company before you choose it. Search company records, read customer reviews, and see whether a company is a broker or a carrier. Check a USDOT or MC number for authority status, insurance on file, and the date the record was checked. Inactive authority is flagged. A federal record is information to weigh. It does not promise service or cover for the car. See company data sources. You can report a review to RideShipper or hide it on your own phone.

Quotes come only when you ask. The quote request is a separate step after the range. It shares your name, email, phone number, route, and vehicle with auto transport companies that serve the route, so that they can contact you. The consent box is unchecked until you tick it, and its text is in the calling and text terms. A household-movers request is optional and separate. You can also email yourself the estimate without requesting quotes.

The shipment file is your organizer. Update your own timeline, record the quotes and deposits companies give you, compare them with the range, and keep notes about the company you choose.

For pickup and delivery there is a dated preparation checklist with optional reminders, and guided condition photos. Take the same angles at pickup and at delivery, compare them, and export a PDF through Android's share sheet.

The garage saves your vehicles for the next shipment. Pick the year, make, and model from the lists, type the vehicle in, or scan the VIN with the camera. The VIN is read on the phone. Google's ML Kit, which does the reading, sends its own diagnostics to Google.

What the app does not do#

The app does not show a live map of the truck, book a shipment, take payment, or run a bid. RideShipper is not a carrier or a broker and does not take a deposit. Auto transport companies may pay RideShipper for an introduction when you request quotes, as how we make money explains.

Confirm the carrier, the final price, the deposit, the pickup window, and the cover with the company you choose.

Help and privacy#

Use Support in the app for help or for a privacy request. The privacy policy says what a quote request, an estimate email, a review, and a support message send, and to whom.
