My uncle in Tulsa moved cars for 20 years and what he said about picking a hauler changed how I look at quotes | Auto Transport Comparisons

I called him up after getting three bids to move my truck from Tulsa to Denver, and the prices were all over the place, $980, $1,240, and one guy who said $750 if I could be ready the next morning. My uncle laughed and said the cheap one was fishing for a deposit, not quoting a real job. He told me to ask two questions before anything else: is the driver a carrier or a broker, and what happens if the pickup window slides by three days. The $980 place gave me straight answers on both, the $750 guy got weird and stopped returning my texts. So that is my first real win in picking a hauler without getting burned, and it cost me nothing but a phone call. What questions do you all ask before you hand over a deposit?
