What does open auto shipping mean?

Our number one most commonly booked service is our open car shipping. Open car shipping is when a vehicle is shipped on a trailer being pulled by a truck. The trailer has no side walls, leaving your car completely exposed and out in the open, just as the name suggests. With this said, you may start to worry, but have no fear your car is still safe here! All this means is that your car is exposed to the outside natural forces, so it would feel rain, wind, etc.

Essentially, in order to put things in perspective, your car is shipped being exposed to the outside world in the same way it would be if you were to drive your car, but instead it is being driven for once! This shipping style is our number one choice as it includes a low price guarantee. We want auto shipping to be accessible to all, so we offer the best prices on the market!

What does enclosed auto shipping mean?

Enclosed auto shipping is essentially the opposite of open air. It includes a truck and trailer, but this time the trailer does have side walls. So, instead of being shipped and exposed to the outside world, your car is shipped in a room on wheels! This makes the shipping style a little bit more protective, as your car avoids the risk of weather damage. For this reason, enclosed auto shipping is usually selected to ship luxury vehicles, such as collectibles and sports cars.
