This company was on time and very informative about price and when the vehicle was to be delivered so I’m very impressed with this company and how they conduct business.

OPEN car shipping
This is the most common shipping type due to its safety, reliability, and number of available trailers. Open transport is also cost-effective and efficient when you need Charlotte car shipping near you, because your vehicle can be easily loaded, unloaded and arranged. Keep in mind that because these trailers are uncovered, the cars on them may arrive with some dust and dirt.
Learn more about open car shipping.
Pros
- More affordable than shipping in an enclosed trailer
- Higher availability, making it easier to book your preferred date
- More fuel efficient than enclosed transportation
Cons
- Vehicles are exposed to the elements during transit
- Trailers often cannot accommodate vehicles with low ground clearance
- Less security and protection from vandalism
ENCLOSED car shipping
Enclosed transport is preferred for shipping classic, exotic, or luxury vehicles. It may also be required for vehicles with low ground clearance that need a hydraulic ramp or gate for loading and unloading—a feature exclusive to enclosed transport trailers. With enclosed shipping, vehicles are protected from road hazards and inclement weather, offering you additional peace of mind.
