Open vs Enclosed Auto Transport

Thinking if open auto transport is right for your vehicle?

There are many reasons why Open transport might be the smarter option for you:

Faster Service with open transport.Image title


More Options with open transport.It is very important for the client to be aware that open transport’s availability is a lot higher than enclosed carriers.


Open trailers are made to transport very versatile vehicles. If you have a modified SUV that is lifted or very big in general, it might take longer because enclosed trailers are very limited when it comes down to loading bigger vehicles.


Transporting your vehicle via open transport will help you save money, while shipping your vehicle in a safe and quick manner.Image title


ENCLOSED TRANSPORT:

Enclosed transport comes with an extra degree in surety and safety.  If you want your vehicle to hit nothing else but the air inside the trailer, this is the option for you.


Timing

Enclosed transport requires a little bit more time as enclosed carriers are more rare then open car carriers.  Shipping with an enclosed trailer is usually double the cost that of of an open transport.  Insurance coverages are higher with enclosed which is why we usually employ our enclosed fleet for high end vehicles such as Super Cars or very Vintage Vehicles which require extra care. 


Auto Transport Insurance

The insurance requirements which we have for our enclosed transporters are unmatched.  Enclosed transport ensures protection against weather, road debris and other road related things that can get on your vehicle when using open transport.  Enclosed transporters use advanced trailers which have either a soft/hard shield that encloses your vehicle completely.  Enclosed car trailers usually carry 3-6 vehicles for normal paced shipping.
