CEVA is always a bit more expensive, but with that you get reliability and assurance that your car is in safe hands. We had our car picked up on a Friday in Brisbane and had it Wednesday morning. Probably would have had it earlier, but Monday was a holiday. Show details ·  1

Kept me waiting for days for a quote only to refuse to ship as the car was 130mm clearance, their sites gives minimum at 120mm. Sad that they are so successful that the little person no longer matters. Another Greysonline story in the making. Show details

Appalling customer service. I spent a week trying to book a vehicle transfer from syd to Melb with CEVA. I spent a week dealing with Phillipino call centres who were unable to help. The depots in australia say they can't help and to call customer service.... back to the phillipines. If ypu need anything more than what can be booked online (which… Read more

is all the call centres have access to) or the online bookings are not working, you will get no where. Try another company

Delivery was 1 day later than promised. Makes it a bit unsatisfactory that I paid extra for the express service. But the process was seamless and my car was delivered in good condition. Show details ·  1

Communication – I had the pleasure of dealing with the Awesome Jackie from Ceva Melbourne to organise transport for my rally car from Mackay to Brisbane. After speaking with my mechanic he suggested I have it transported from Brisbane to home on the Southern Downs . I then spoke to a guy who said he could not help me, I had to book online. I communicated with a… Read more ·  1

girl from their chat room who also said she couldn't help me, I then sent a text to the wonderful Jackie who in 3 minutes had my booked for the next leg of its journey. My question is "Does this global company know the stress and frustration their incompetant staff cause? Do they realise what a gem they have in their wonderful Jackie from their Melbourne office? A HUGE THANKYOU JACKIE YOU DESERVE A RAISE.

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. Ceva Transport picked up my $300,000 C8 3LT Corvette from Gardner Special Vehicles Perth to deliver it to Adelaide Both sills were damaged on my brand new car I discovered washing it in weeks after. A Retired Ceva Driver I by chance met explained how this damage occurred either loading or securing as he'd seen it… Read more

previously. As I had no pictures of this in their Car Depot Adelaide it isn't covered Nor did they, only photos of each corner of the car. So sills are never photographed yet would be a common site for scraping whilst loading. I was then accused of making a false claim as Ceva found photos of my Corvette online conducting my New Super-Car Experience Business stating no damage is visible in it SERIOUSLY???

The Clown who picked it up is seen being a fool placing it on the Truck hanging out the window for a photo whilst possiblly causing this damage I believe.

CEVA dropped my triumph motorcycle and damaged it at their Perth depot in December 2024. Here we are in August 2025 and the payment to the repairer has not been despite CEVA acknowledging responsibility. They keep saying that the payment has been approved but not processed. I contacted them today and told them this was not good enough. They… Read more

Very Disappointed – Very disappointed in the delivery of my brand new Jaguar F Pace left Jaguar Gold Coast in new condition turned up in Cairns absolutely filthy. I had also paid door to door drop off so Ceba could pickup my trade in Jaguar to be sent back to the Gold… Read more

Coast. I received a phone to tell me I had to pick up the new vehical and drop my other Jaguar 20 minutes away. The thing was I had unregistered my other car so had no plates on it. So I had to organise Jaguar to send me a certificate to drive the vehaical 20 mins ago. I will say the service was fast 2 days from Gold Coast to Cairns. Cost was $1600 for that price I didn't expect it to arrive in that condition.

 Follow-up  · Still to this day two years later I have never heard back from the company. I will definitely make sure not to use them again or the dealership Gold Coast Jaguar.

Damaged side mirror (like totally knocked off, had to replace it) during transport and no responsibility taken, despite us having clear photos that show our car not been damaged on pick up. Poor customer service and communication since then, trying… Read more

to obtain reasons why it wasn't claimable. Basically we've been told we've reviewed your claim and refuse it based on our inspection. But no proof of inspection showing anything wrong with the car prior to transport. Would not use again, nor recommend to anyone.

 Follow-up  · The follow up was just a cover up, all parties deflected blame and therefore noone was at fault and nothing happened. Still out of pocket for the new side mirror.

told that it was scheduled to be picked up the on the 4th day after 2pm keeping that they close at 3pm and apparently it has too be washed inspected and then they ring you when you can come in and collect it.

This is the second time I've used CEVA and I've been very happy both times. The staff try very hard to work with you to ensure hassle free on time delivery. I highly recommend CEVA for your vehicle transportation. Show details ·  1

The delivery of my car was scheduled much later, but after talking to CEVA, they did everything they could to ensure it arrived on time and in good condition. Customer service took great care of my situation and did everything they could to satisfy me. Very good, and I am delighted. Show details ·  1

Poor communication, organisation, logistics and price. Late delivery; which to organise with CEVA was like pulling teeth. The tow truck driver at delivery didn't have the hand brake on, whilst the car was on the back of the truck as he didn't know how to use it. His jumper pack was dead, and all he cared about was getting the car off the truck… Read more

ASAP and dumping it in my court not parked properly.

The whole process from start to finish was woeful, and the cost ballooned from the moment the seller dropped the vehicle off, as I guess I was stuck with Ceva from then onwards.

Car was picked up 6 weeks ago and still not delivered. This is using their supposed preium service. First claimed that they lost the key, however communication throughout the process has been terrible. I transport cars frequently and have used CEVA in the past, but based on this experience, never again. Show details

Shameful. Like other reviews, disgraceful company with ZERO business ethics. Can’t even operate to their own business values or guidelines. My car arrived 16 days after they said. I made numerous calls requesting information as to the delay and whereabouts of my car. Like other reviews, customer service were great at diverting my calls and REFUSED… Read more

to connect me with anyone from the Operations Team. They eventually ghosted me and didn’t reply to emails. It sat for 7 days at the Victorian rail yard before it magically moved the day after I complained. Then it sat for another week at the port in Geelong before I rang the port directly. I was told and emailed that my car was being made a priority and yet it was 16 days late. There should be some way all these complaints can be investigated and this company held accountable. People have paid good money upfront and entered into a business agreement with CEVA and in return have been left with no answers, angered and frustrated.

This company is a joke. You cannot ever get through to their Operations Team, only to customer service agents who aren't native English speakers. They don't pick the car up on the date arranged. They don't call you as arranged. They don't honour the pickup details as arranged. I wouldn't recomment using them unless you have the patience of a saint. Show details

I WILL NOT USE THIS COMPANY AGAIN AND I WISH I READ REVIEWS FIRST. They took a week to pick up my car at Grays VIC and went straight past me (when I live 1 minute off M1) to Brisbane to sit for over a week for no… Read more

reason and still hasn’t been delivered. The excuse is to check the car over. WTH! BULLS#!T took them 3 days from VIC to QLD but it’s been 3 weeks with no car yet. Anybody would want to unload before picking up more vehicles. Doesn’t make sense at all. DO NOT USE THEM!

Communication was a bit poor, so it took longer than we expected for the delivery. The vehicle arrived in mint condition and the driver was absolutely fantastic. He called at twice to let us know his eta. He gave us plenty of time to inspect the vehicle and was very courteous. Show details

Poor, poor, poor, I paid for premium service with insurance and I received poor service with a damaged vehicle with no insurance cover. they admitted to damaging the car, they admitted to doing wrong and they done nothing.

threw me my keys and nothing, I had a damaged car with out of pocket costs and no remedy, all the while paying premium service and in the end not being allowed to claim the insurance that I paid extra for? Total scam and disaster, my only option is to sue. Beware!! they are crooks!!!!

Very, very dissapointed with this company and i will definately not recommend anyone wanting to transport their vehicle interstate or elsewhere! Our vehicle left Melbourne on 14 April and we were told that delivery would be on 5 May. No person contacted us regarding ETA or delay in the delivery the vehicle. We booked car hire from 3 May to 6 May,… Read more

anticipating that the vehicle will be delivered as scheduled, low and behold it was not. I had to call the day before and enquire for myself ETA. then only were we told that the car will only be delivered on 8 May, this incured us extra costs to hire a car for another 2 days. Eventually we did get a call, telling us that our car will be delivered on 8 May between 07.30 and 09.00, intial call. Then we received a call by a person who told us that the car will be ready for pickup in Baldivis and if we are residing in Rockinham this would be easier for delivery, we agreed. When my car arrived, the driver, opened the car door manually and had to jump start the car to get it off the transport vehicle.My husband querred this and the driver became really angry and rude. This is a new car and my husband and i could not believe that a new car had a dead battery only after 2 weeks and a bit if transit time and i had my Quasqui for 6 yrs and only then was my battery changed! We had to get RAC to evaluate and they had to replace the battery with a new battery. We just relocated to Perth from Melbourne and we know that this very unacceptable especially that you are paid to do your job and we entrust you with our vehicles. It is my opinion that you seriously improve on your customer care. Very dissaponting CEVA!

I shipped the car from Perth to Adelaide with CEVA using their enclosed transport. Car from dealer was truck then rail from Perth to Kilburn SA and finally trucked to the CEVA depot at Wingfield SA.

staff were great to deal with and chat. I would also like to call out the offshore call centre that changed the pickup dates from the car yard and then changed it back both times at my request. They answered my calls made the necessary changes and contacted me back to confirm they had gone through. Thanks to the CEVA Team as reading these reviews you can get very nervous but my first hand experience was great.
