This is by far the most common and cost effective way to transport a vehicle. An open carrier is similar to the trucks on the highway, and you will see a load of cars on a trailer with open sides. However, since the cars are exposed to natural elements, they risk certain types of damage such as debris from tires, sand rocks, and salt (during the winter). The season also needs to be considered as hail, snow, and sleet can also come into play at certain times of the year. In most cases your vehicle will arrive in the exact condition as when it was picked up. To put your mind at ease, many car dealerships use open transport to deliver their brand new vehicles. Also keep in mind our carriers are fully licensed, bonded, and insured.

Your vehicle will be transported door-to-door or to a designated location of your choice on a completely enclosed trailer. An enclosed car carrier provides the ultimate protection for any vehicle that should not be exposed to inclement weather extremes and potential road hazards. This option is typically used to transport luxury and classic automobiles or motorcycles and costs significantly more than an open transport.
