OPEN car shipping
Open trailer transport is the most common type of transport used for North Carolina car shipping near you due to its safety and reliability. Open transport is an efficient and cost-effective option, as it allows vehicles to be easily arranged and quickly loaded and unloaded. Keep in mind that vehicles transported this way are not protected from weather and road conditions and commonly accumulate a bit of dirt during the journey.
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
Owners of classic, exotic or luxury cars as well as motorcycles and powersports typically prefer enclosed transport. Vehicles with low ground clearance may also require enclosed shipping, as the driver may need a hydraulic lift gate or ramp to load them onto the truck. Enclosed transport protects your vehicle from inclement weather and road hazards so you can have peace of mind that your vehicle is being transported safely.
Learn more about enclosed car shipping.
Pros
- Vehicles are more protected from the elements and vandalism
- Often equipped with ramps to load vehicles with lower ground clearance
- Accommodates multiple vehicle types, including motorcycles
Cons
- Less affordable than shipping a vehicle on an open trailer
- Lower availability can make scheduling pickup and dropoff more difficult
- Enclosed carriers move fewer cars at once, which may drive up the cost

Top 6 things to consider when transporting a car to or from North Carolina
- North Carolina has one of the nation’s largest highway systems—making up nearly 80,000 miles of roadway that reaches all corners of the state.
- If you’re moving to North Carolina permanently, you must get a state driver’s license and register your vehicle(s) with the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles within 60 days of establishing a residence.
- Your vehicle must also pass an annual safety and emissions inspection before it can be registered in North Carolina. Failure to do this within 90 days will result in registration being blocked until the inspection is complete.
- If you plan to ship your car to North Carolina, do your research to ensure you understand the state’s driving and ownership laws. This includes understanding North Carolina traffic rules and any unique regulations that may differ from your previous state.
- Certain cities and towns in North Carolina are on or near the coastline, making them more susceptible to flooding. When driving in even in only a few inches of water, the vehicle can be swept away. A good rule of thumb: If you can’t see the markings on the road, don’t drive on it.
- Leaving the state? Remember to remove your North Carolina Quick Pass to avoid incurring fees while your vehicle is being transported.

North Carolina car shipping FAQs
Can I have my vehicle delivered directly to my home in North Carolina?
With Montway’s door-to-door service, you can have your car picked up anywhere in the U.S. and dropped off at your home address in North Carolina. Keep in mind that local streets may need to accommodate a car carrier trailer that can be up to 80 feet in length and weigh 80 tons. Your driver will work with you to find a safe meeting place near your home if your location isn’t legally or physically accessible.
Is my car insured while transporting it to or from North Carolina?
Yes, your vehicle will be covered by the carrier’s cargo insurance. Additionally, Montway has its own contingent cargo insurance which protects you for up to $250,000 should the trucker’s policy fail to fully cover a valid claim.
How far in advance should I book my North Carolina auto shipment?
You should book your car transport as soon as you know pickup and delivery dates and locations. The further in advance you can schedule shipping, the more likely your vehicle will be delivered within your desired timeframe. We suggest booking between two and three weeks prior to the pickup date. Expedited pickup options are also available at an additional cost.
What’s the cheapest way to ship a car to or from North Carolina?
A simple way to save money is by opting for open auto transport rather than enclosed. You can also save money by keeping your pickup date flexible, meeting your truck driver near a main route and avoiding seasonal demand. Discover more interesting cheap car shipping tips to help keep money in your pocket.
How should I prepare my car for shipment?
We suggest the car is clean so that any existing damage is fully visible. Remove any personal items, especially anything of value. Also remove automatic toll devices and disable any kind of security system which could give the trucker trouble when loading or unloading the vehicle. Finally, leave a quarter tank of gas in the vehicle to be sure there is enough for loading and unloading.
Does someone need to be present for pickup and drop-off?
Yes, a person must be present at both pickup and delivery to sign inspection reports, hand the keys over to the driver and release and accept the vehicle. If you are unable to be there, you must find a person over the age of 18 that you trust to oversee the process.
