Enclosed car transport for cars that deserve extra care
A hard-sided or soft-sided trailer keeps rain, sun, salt and road debris off your vehicle from pickup to delivery.
How it works
What is enclosed car transport?
Enclosed trailers carry fewer cars, usually 2 to 6, and often use liftgates instead of steep ramps. Drivers who run enclosed routes are experienced with low-clearance, high-value and collector vehicles.
Why choose it
Why customers pick enclosed car transport
Liftgate loading
Hydraulic liftgates avoid steep ramps that can scrape low front ends.
Higher coverage
Enclosed carriers typically carry higher cargo insurance limits, up to $1M or more.

Questions
Common questions
How much more is enclosed?
Usually about 40% more than open transport on the same route, because each trailer carries fewer cars.
Is enclosed slower?
Pickup can take a day or two longer since there are fewer enclosed carriers. Transit time on the road is about the same.
Do you use soft straps?
Yes. Enclosed carriers use soft straps or wheel nets so nothing touches the wheels' finish.
