DOWNS AUTO TRANSPORT INC
DOWNS AUTO TRANSPORT INC operates out of MTN HOUSE, CA 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 MTN HOUSE, 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 May 2026.
DOWNS AUTO TRANSPORT INC has held operating authority since 2022. That is 4 years in a trade where a large share of new entrants do not reach five. It reports 1 power unit and 1 driver — a one-to-one roster, the ordinary shape of a small fleet. The fleet reported 81,136 miles in 2025, about 81,136 per truck — steady regional running.
