Highway and rest of others,
Always go to Appalachian Trail Conference (http://www.appalachiantrail.org/) for fact-finding such as shuttle question you made. Accord to ATC:
The ATC Information Center keeps a listing of known shuttle service providers along the length of the entire Trail. Through this listing you can access almost any part of the Trail from the closest airport, bus station, or rail terminal, and get a ride back again. It also works for parties who wish to avoid bringing two cars. Of course, there are alot of Georgia Shuttle Operators, that are specifically goes up to Springer Mountain. Go to Shuttle Services and Parking ATC webpage (http://www.appalachiantrail.org/hike/plan/cars.html) . What SGT mention of Hacksaw (
[email protected]) , yes, this person also list in A.T. Shuttle and Public Transportation Providers, in PDF (http://www.appalachiantrail.org/hike/pdfs/shuttle_083002.pdf) . This PDF document updated by the Conference in 8/30/02 in 299 KB, which I printed out, listed beautifully done. If you'd prefer a hard copy of the list, let ATC know and they will send it out via first class mail:

Not only automoble-based information that ATC only provided, but on air travel (http://www.appalachiantrail.org/hike/plan/air.html), bus and train terminals (http://www.appalachiantrail.org/hike/plan/trans.html) too. Good luck Highway. :D PS: Native Floridian here, glad be of any help.
