There are 2 basic ways to carriers a vehicle. There are 2 basic ways to shipping a vehicle. The first way is by Open Carrier – This is the most common way to shippers a vehicle. These are the trucks you see on the highway with a load of cars on a trailer with open sides. Typically in the world of vehicle shipping, this is cheaper, but since the vehicles are exposed to the elements, they are at risk to certain types of damage. Debris such as rocks, tires, sand and salt (in the winter months) can do damage to any unprotected vehicles. The weather also needs to be considered, snow, sleet and especially hail. To hold these cars in place a chain is placed on the frame of the car and connected to the trailer. In almost all cases, your car will arrive in the same condition it was picked up in. To prove this point, many car dealerships still take a risk and use open shippers to deliver their new cars.
The second basic type of auto shipping is Enclosed car transport – Enclosed carriers is exactly what it sounds like; your vehicle is placed in a trailer that protects it from the elements. The best auto transport use what are called “soft ties” to connect your car to the trailer (rather than chaining it to the frame). Most enclosed auto transport companies offer first class “white glove” service; they may even put down floor mats to protect your carpets and interior. Be aware though, all this comes with a price, enclosed vehicle shipping can cost you anywhere from 75-100% more than open shippers.
