OPEN car shipping
Open transport is a practical option for most people transporting vehicles to or from New Bedford. Your vehicle ships uncovered on a standard hauler, saving money compared to enclosed alternatives, while still delivering reliable service. The exposure brings predictable dust, salt air, dirt, and moisture accumulation during transit. None of this greatly affects your vehicle and can be removed with a basic car wash.

ENCLOSED car shipping
For collector vehicles, vintage automobiles, restored classics, or pricey luxury models, enclosed transport is best. Full enclosure protects against salt air, ocean moisture, and weather elements. Hydraulic systems load vehicles with low ground clearance safely, eliminating the risk for undercarriage scraping. This option runs at an increased cost, but when shipping a high-value vehicle, you don’t want to risk it.
