OPEN car shipping
With its reputation for safety and reliability, open transport is the most widely used vehicle shipping method. Open transport is also cost-effective and efficient when you need Virginia Beach car shipping near you, because your vehicle can be easily loaded, unloaded, and rearranged. While in transit, vehicles will be exposed to road debris and elements, so your vehicle will arrive with a bit of dust and dirt.
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
With enclosed shipping, vehicles are protected from road hazards and inclement weather, offering additional peace of mind. This is the preferred shipping method for classic, exotic or luxury vehicles, as well as vehicles with low ground clearance since they will likely need a hydraulic ramp or gate for loading and unloading. If you’re an owner of a high-value vehicle, consider enclosed car shipping.
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
