DAKOTA AUTO CARRIER LLC
DAKOTA AUTO CARRIER LLC operates out of HERMOSA, SD and holds carrier authority. It owns the equipment and its own driver collects your vehicle. A single-truck operation. One driver, one trailer, and a schedule that is theirs alone — which usually means personal contact and a narrower set of dates. It is the only auto transport company registered in HERMOSA, so a local pickup here is usually arranged rather than dispatched from down the road.
From the company’s own FMCSA census filing, last updated September 2025.
DAKOTA AUTO CARRIER LLC has held operating authority since 2011, 15 years, long enough to have run through both the 2020 collapse in volumes and the rate spike that followed. It reports 1 power unit and 1 driver — a one-to-one roster, the ordinary shape of a small fleet. The fleet reported 40,000 miles in 2024, about 40,000 per truck — light or seasonal use.

Our data is a snapshot of the federal register, not a recommendation, and authority can lapse between refreshes.
