OPEN car shipping

Open car shipping is by far the most popular choice for Peoria car shipping. Open trailers make loading and unloading simple, meaning carriers can efficiently transport multiple vehicles at once, offering a most cost-efficient option. For most customers shipping a vehicle to or from Peoria, open carrier transport is the go-to choice. Just remember that since the trailer is exposed, your vehicle may pick up some road dust or dirt along the way.

ENCLOSED car shipping

Enclosed trailers provide a more protected way to ship vehicles to Peoria, and is a preferred option for those shipping high-value vehicles like classic cars, exotic vehicles, or performance cars. These also offer a safer way to load and unload vehicles with low-ground clearance thanks to hydraulic lifts. During the winter when salt covers Peoria roads, car owners will especially appreciate the added protection from road debris.
