Auto Hauler Exchange (AHX), the nation’s first true marketplace connecting vehicle shippers directly with carriers, has been recognized as one of Metropolitan Detroit’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For® in 2025.

Founded in 2021, Auto Hauler Exchange is transforming the vehicle logistics industry by eliminating the traditional broker model and replacing it with a transparent, tech-driven platform. In just a few years, AHX has raised $5 million in Series A funding, built a rapidly expanding team, and attracted top-tier shippers and carriers from across the country.

Being named a Best and Brightest Company to Work For® underscores our commitment to fostering a culture that matches its pace of growth—fast, collaborative, and deeply innovative. At AHX, employees are empowered to take ownership, move quickly, and make an impact in an industry long overdue for disruption.

“This recognition is especially meaningful for us because it validates what we’ve been building internally,” said Royce Neubauer, Founder and CEO of Auto Hauler Exchange. “As a startup, we move at a rapid pace and tackle challenges every day. But at the heart of that work is a team that believes in our mission and pushes the industry forward. Creating an environment where our employees can thrive is one of the most important parts of our success.”

The award comes as AHX continues its aggressive growth trajectory, adding new features for shippers and carriers, expanding into consumer vehicle shipping, and scaling its Detroit-based team.

While recognition like this is an honor, Auto Hauler Exchange sees it as just the beginning. “We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished in a short time,” added Neubauer. “But the real excitement is in what comes next.”
