Trying to move across country and need to tow our Porsche, but the moving trucks (uhaul, pensky... etc.).. does not offer towing for our car.|||The Porsche Boxster has "tie down points" specifically designed for "transporting" not towing. NEVER tow a Boxster. These tie down points are for "T-hooks or R-hooks". Get ahold of the Porsche Dealer or the Manager of a AAA towing company to SHOW YOU where these tie down points are and ask where you can acquire the necessary equipment to attach your car to a trailer. Or.....pay an Auto Transport Company to do it for you. These are the two safest ways.|||Don't tow it!! Have a transportation company move it on a car carrier or pay someone to drive it cross country for you..that's alot of miles to put on it however!!|||Go to U Haul and rent a two wheel tow doly, if it is auto, put it on the dolly backward and pull it behind your rental moving truck.
There are private haulers out there that transport them on flatbed trailers. or contact some of the transporte Co. listed in the phone book.
For private haulers, put an ad in the paper,or look under "personal" for one|||There are companies that will move your vehicle for you. The only problem I forsee is that if your Boxter is your only vehicle you may be without a car for a few days as the moving company's schedule may be different from your move schedule.

You will have to find a place like loading dock to put it in truck though. Definately SCREW down boards to trucks wooden floors infront and behind each tire. About three 2x4's on top of each other and then strap down if you can. I've used uhauls before to haul a car myself. There are also trailers you can put entire car on but are not closed in that you can rent, that can then be towed behind a rented truck.
Just be aware insurance you get with a rented truck wont cover hauling a car which is what they ***** about. But your own insurance on the car would only cover boxer if you have full coverage.|||go to u-haul and rent a car trailer not a dolly , your car is completely off the road and it can be towed behind your moving truck.
