OPEN car shipping

Open auto transport is a popular shipping method due to its safety, reliability, and the wide availability of carriers. It’s an efficient and affordable way to ship vehicles to or from Hartford, as cars are easily loaded, unloaded, and organized on open trailers. However, since these trailers are uncovered, vehicles may accumulate some road dust and dirt during transit.

ENCLOSED car shipping

Enclosed shipping is the ideal choice for valuable, rare, or high-end vehicles, offering enhanced security and peace of mind. This method shields your vehicle from road debris and harsh weather. Enclosed trailers often utilize hydraulic ramps and lift gates, which are crucial for safely loading and unloading vehicles with minimal ground clearance.
