Australia wide car transport Express were good to deal with. The car was collected on time and away it went. Alas between leaving me and reaching Ceva Car Logistics in Melbourne the door catch was broken and the handbrake too. This resulted in a 700$ repair before the car could continue its journey. I was then quoted over 4000$ by Ceva car… Read more ·  2

Logistics to transfer the vehicle as non drive able. It seemed to me that Ceva take no care with the vehicles and after damaging them charge for the experience. Fortunately the mechanic I engaged was able to repair the damage done. I'm not aware of the link between Australia Wide TExpress and Ceva .

I am extremely disappointed with the level of service and lack of accountability from this company. While they were quick to "stalk" me for payment with constant calls and emails, their service evaporated the moment the funds were cleared. The issues I encountered: Complete Lack of Tracking: After my vehicle was collected on Feb 23rd, the… Read more

company provided conflicting information about its location. At one point, staff admitted they didn't even have access to the vehicle's movements.

Missed Deadlines: My car was estimated for delivery between March 6th–11th. I was only notified of a delay on the 9th, with no detailed explanation provided despite my requests.

Unprofessional Staff: When I spoke with a representative (Danielle) to express my frustration over my property I paid for ($ ** 000) and the service, she literally laughed and told me I hadn't paid that money to her company. To treat a client’s property with such dismissive levity is staggering.

Their website claims to "line up all the ducks" for on-time delivery, but in reality, they leave customers in the dark. If you value your time, your money, or your vehicle, look elsewhere.

I still had no response from my formal complaint to them and still don't have my car

Good good experience – I recently had an excellent experience with a car transport service that I would like to share. I arranged for my vehicle to be transported from Perth to Sydney before the Christmas holidays. The service was prompt, with my car being delivered ahead of the estimated timeline. Additionally, the vehicle arrived in the same condition in which I sent… Read more ·  1

The staff at the company were very friendly and responsive to all my inquiries, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend this company based on this experience. In contrast, when I previously moved from Sydney to Perth, I used a different company and encountered significant issues, which left me quite anxious. Overall, my recent experience was exceptionally positive, and I’m grateful for their service.

Ford muscle cars after being hidden away in a shed in the NT for over 13 years. CEVA, the company contracted by Australia Wide Car Transport Express to transport my treasured vehicle to WA treated my car like they owned it and even put it on their trailer hidden behind their signage and with the upper deck ramp lowered down behind it not only concealing the car but making it impossible to steal it as well. Incredible service all round! I cannot thank you all enough for everything you done for me with getting my much loved GT safely to my home in WA. I give your company and CEVA the highest recommendation possible for your invaluable personal service. Thank you so very much. I also have another XYGT that is still in the NT that is next to come to WA as well. You will be doing that for me as well once it is ready to come down here. Thank you once more.

 Follow-up  · The booking process was flawless, not a single issue at all. Customer service support was awesome with follow up on every aspect associated with the move. My future plans are to have Australia Wide Car Transport Express to relocate another XYGT to Perth from the NT for me as soon as it is in drivable condition, it was locked away from thieving… Read more

progress of our delivery. The timeframe was truly a credit to the company and driver. We were given an estimated week approx by dates. Yet our vehicle arrived for our daughter in the same week. Only about 2-3 business days from the start of transit to completion. My husband and HIGHLY recommend your service. You’ve taken all the stress out of its delivery for us.

Many, many grateful, satisfied & happy thanks to you & the driver! Continue with the great service and importantly we wish safe travelling to the drivers.

Terrible! If you need your car delivered, try another company! This one does not book your car delivery for the estimated dates you selected at the time of booking. They will put it on a longer delivery date without telling you, only after you drop your car off. Go direct to PRIX CAR instead (who is the 3rd party they use to deliver their cars for… Read more

the accurate service times). I booked through Car Transport Express the 2-5 day estimated delivery of my car and immediately after I dropped off my car I got an email stating they had put the car on an estimated 10 day arrival with Prix Car. And I was left with no choice but to go along with that and wait (and pay for extra accomodation). When questioned they resorted to their fine print stating 'delays can occur at any time' ... failing to acknowledge this wasn't a delay that occurred during transit, it was a failed service from the start they were never aiming for 2-5 days, the service I booked! Refusal to acknowledge, terrible customer service no apology. Just an other big company doing whatever it wants, not delivering what they promise, and attempting to make the fine-print relevant to this case and excuse the failed service!

I am writing to formally express my disappointment regarding the recent $180 charge. It appears this charge resulted from a lack of knowledge or expertise on your team’s part. After receiving inaccurate or inadequate assistance, I was then pressured to cancel my enquiry due to a significant and unexplained increase in price. I find it… Read more

unacceptable to be charged for an issue that clearly stems from internal shortcomings. As a customer, I expect professionalism, transparency, and accountability—none of which were demonstrated in this experience.

This situation has left me extremely dissatisfied. I do not accept the charge, and I am very disappointed with how this was handled. Based on my experience, I would not recommend your services, and I question the authenticity of many of the positive reviews published online.

Ended badly – Started off great. Easy to deal with, good price and easy to contact BUT my car arrived with a chip and a cracked window and of course they refused to fix it saying that was not neglect on the truck drivers part. If you decide to chance it and use this company please keep in mind there is nothing to protect customers for such incidents, which is… Read more

very frustrating as I don’t see this as an expense I should have had to pay. I bought a car in great condition and it didn’t arrive that way. Also the tracking link wasn’t sent out to me until after my car arrived at my front door.

If I had to give a negative and it’s only a small negative one of the call personnel got sick of me checking on the progress of the car lol.

I needed to get my Wolfsburg Scirocco to WA fom NSW. It's pristine and it had to come in a covered transport to minimise the risk of damage. I did look at another transporter but found the reviews deeply concerning. My car arrived just as it left. Huge relief and I'm totally satisfied. Couldn't find a better solution and recommend Car Transport Express. Show details ·  1

We needed our car to be transported from Melbourne to Darwin as we were going on a partial off road tour from Adelaide to Darwin and did not want to go off road ourselves. We dropped car at Laverton in Melbourne and after staying there for 5 days it was in Darwin 5 days later, well in time for us to collect on arrival. An AirTag was in the car so we could see how it was moved. No damage,excellent service both ends ,all as promised . Well done Show details ·  1

AVOID CAR TRANSPORT EXPRESS – Dishonest, Unaccountable, and Protected by Unfair Fine Print My Civic Type R was extensively damaged in transit by CTE. They blamed the weather and my coilovers, refusing all liability. My car had 148mm clearance on Tein Flex coilovers—within legal and typical factory specs (e.g., Golf GTI: 130–145mm). Their hidden… Read more

clause exempts them from damage liability for any car under 150mm clearance—not disclosed at booking, not mentioned during phone calls, and only found deep in their T&Cs.

This is a deliberate trap. Once damage occurs, they weaponise this clause to deny responsibility—leaving you to cover costs and deal with insurance excess and premium hikes. CEVA moved my cars six times—never a scratch. One trip with CTE and I’m out $1,650 with no support.

Worse still, their customer service is disgraceful:

[Name Removed] will mock you, imply you're dishonest for complaining, and gaslight you into silence.

[Name Removed] will say she can’t help and refer you to [Name Removed] —then [Name Removed] says it’s [Name Removed]’s issue. It’s a blame loop designed to exhaust you.

They hide their names in email replies, refuse to provide anything in writing, and dehumanise you over the phone.

The bank won’t help, the insurer won’t help, and CTE knows it—this is their entire model.

They are dishonest, soulless, and should not be in business. I will be lodging complaints with ACCC and AFCA over their unfair practices and deceptive conduct. Something as crucial as the 150mm clause should be disclosed before taking your money—not buried in fine print.

Pay more, go elsewhere. You’ve been warned.
