What is enclosed car shipping?

Enclosed car transport is the perfect way to ship a luxury car, classic car, or simply one that you have invested in and value highly. It’s an entire trailer built specifically around protecting vehicles, adding protection on all four sides to prevent damage.

 

Our enclosed car hauler can fit multiple vehicles. This acts as an added layer of protection for your cars by allowing you to fill a single trailer yourself. Weather, accidental damage, and scratches are all mitigated by using this type of shipping.


PROS:

Personal trailers prevent others from interacting with your vehicle.


Shared trailers have a max limit of vehicles, lowering the risk of damage.


Entirely closed space prevents damage from weather, road, and more.


Highly trained drivers add another layer of protection.


CONS:

Shipping may take longer due to more secure driving and slower offloading.


More expensive auto transport option than open car shipping.


Increase in fuel costs due to trailer weight.

When should I use enclosed car transport?

Shipping a standard vehicle

If you value your vehicle whether it’s a car you’ve owned for years, one with which you have a particular connection, or one that’s a gift, then closed auto hauling is a great solution. Because of its design, your vehicle is enclosed for the entirety of its trip.

While the usual consumer base for enclosed vehicle transfers is a higher-end crowd with car collections or luxury vehicles, the service is prepared to handle any vehicle. If you value your vehicle, no matter the make or model, closed transport is your best option.


Shipping a luxury vehicle

If you own luxury vehicles, classic cars, and similar automobiles that are highly valuable or you’ve invested a lot of time into, then you should consider enclosed auto transport. This method of shipping offers the highest level of protection for your vehicles and diminishes all areas of mistakes or risk.

Luxury and expensive vehicles are handled with much greater care when using an enclosed car hauler. The drivers and caretakers are trained in this specific line of work, fully understanding the value of what they’re shipping.


Shipping a classic vehicles

Vehicle collectors benefit greatly from enclosed car shipping. With trailers that typically hold 5 vehicles, you can claim one entirely for yourself. This helps minimize interactions with other car owners as well as access to the trailer.

Your vehicles will remain closed inside for the entirety of the trip since access to the enclosed trailer will only be needed for loading, unloading, and the initial inspection. Collectors shipping multiple vehicles at the same time can see a monetary benefit, since using the entire trailer alone spreads the cost.


Frequently Asked Questions

When preparing your vehicle for enclosed shipping, make sure nothing remains inside. That includes the glovebox, trunk, seatbacks, and anywhere that you might have placed any items. This is especially true for household items, as auto shippers are prohibited from transporting vehicles with them.

If you are attempting to ship an oversized vehicle, one that is heavily modified, one of extreme value, or one that has been totaled, then specialized equipment might be necessary to ship. Not all vehicle shipping companies have this specialized equipment. Therefore, you should state very clearly to us what you are planning to ship so we can utilize the carrier that best fits your needs.

Yes, you can. Use our quote system to select the type of shipment as well as your vehicle’s condition to receive the best price for your needs.

The quoted price will include all costs if the information you’ve provided is accurate. Please make sure you state the correct vehicle condition during the quote process to avoid any surprise fees.
