Customer Success Story: Deboss Garage and Freightquote

When it comes to moving something as valuable (and bulky) as an engine, you can’t leave shipping to chance. That’s exactly why Deboss Garage, one of YouTube’s most trusted names in the automotive DIY world, turned to Freightquote by C.H. Robinson.

If you’ve ever watched their channel, you know Deboss Garage does it all, from American Muscle builds to classic car restorations to diesel swaps. With over 800,000 subscribers on YouTube, weekly videos, and hands-on tutorials from the ever-resourceful “Filthy Rich,” they’ve built a reputation as the #1 engine swap specialists online. When it came time to move an engine across Canada, they wanted a shipping solution that was just as reliable and no-nonsense as their own approach to auto work.

That’s where Freightquote came in.

A step-by-step look at shipping

Deboss Garage documented the shipping process for their project in a short tutorial video. It covers everything from helpful packaging tips, a rundown on how to use Freightquote’s online quote tool, to the benefits you can get when you join Freightquote Rewards.

Packaging made simple

Shipping an engine isn’t just about strapping it to a pallet. Deboss Garage leaned on Freightquote’s packaging guidelines to make sure the engine was totally secure and ready for transit.

From choosing the right pallet to strapping down the engine and protecting vulnerable components, Freightquote’s packaging guidelines helped Rich and the team at Deboss avoid common mistakes and ensure the shipment was compliant with carrier requirements.

Easy-to-use quote tool

Once the engine was ready, Deboss Garage turned to Freightquote’s quote tool. By entering shipment details, they could instantly see and compare carrier options, add insurance, and generate the Bill of Lading (BOL).

The process was quick, transparent, and stress-free; perfect for creators and businesses who want to spend more time on their projects, not logistics.

Deboss Garage also signed up for Freightquote Rewards, a free loyalty program that gives shippers access to exclusive savings and perks on their LTL and full truckload shipments. For DIYers, small businesses, and creators who ship often, the savings add up fast.
