Frequently Asked Specialized Transport Questions
Q. What is the difference between open transport and enclosed transport?
A. When transporting a car, truck or van, usually open transport trailers are used. You will more then likely see these types of trucks dropping of vehicles at your local car dealerships. These trailers can hold 6-10 cars at a time and are the most popular and inexpensive way to move your vehicle. As the name suggests, your vehicle will be exposed to the weather and will be viewable by others. When you request a quote from a transport company they will usually give you a price based on this type of shipping.
Enclosed auto transporting uses a transport trailer that is completely enclosed, protecting your vehicles from the elements. If you own an expensive exotic, classic antique, or a rare convertible you may wish to choose this type of transport. If you wish to transport your vehicle this way you will need a transporter that specializes in this type of shipping.
