OPEN car shipping

Open transport is by far the most popular and most cost-effective choice for most car owners. Open trailers are more accessible, easier to load and unload, and typically have faster transport times thanks to their wide availability. Since these carriers are open to the elements, your vehicle may accumulate some road dust during transit to or from Sterling Heights.

ENCLOSED car shipping

For car owners with vehicles that have high sentimental or high value, enclosed car shipping may be the better choice for you. Enclosed carriers offer added protection, both from the elements during transit, as well as during loading and unloading with specialized hydraulics and liftgates. If your vehicle is a classic, luxury, or exotic vehicle, an enclosed carrier is our recommendation.
