SM AUTO TRANSPORT LLC
SM AUTO TRANSPORT LLC operates out of LORTON, VA 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. 2 other licensed auto transport companies are registered in LORTON.
From the company’s own FMCSA census filing, last updated June 2026.
SM AUTO TRANSPORT LLC has held operating authority since 2023. That is 3 years in a trade where a large share of new entrants do not reach five. It reports 1 power unit against 4 drivers, so the equipment runs more than one shift — a sign of a fleet kept busy rather than parked. The fleet reported 10,000 miles in 2025, about 10,000 per truck — light or seasonal use.
