SHANK BROS. AUTO TRANSPORT LLC
SHANK BROS. AUTO TRANSPORT LLC operates out of VESTAL, NY and holds carrier authority. It owns the equipment and its own driver collects your vehicle. A mid-sized fleet. This is the size that reliably runs fixed lanes week to week rather than chasing whatever load is nearest. It is the only auto transport company registered in VESTAL, 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 March 2026.
SHANK BROS. AUTO TRANSPORT LLC has held operating authority since 1993 — 33 years, which puts it among the oldest registrations in the trade and well past the point where most entrants have folded. It reports 16 power units but only 10 drivers, which usually means some of the fleet sits idle or is run by owner-operators contracted per load. The fleet reported 660,000 miles in 2025, about 41,250 per truck — light or seasonal use.
