Auto transportation companies can use an enclosed or an open car carrier depending on your  requests. Open carriers are open on the top and sides and carry multiple cars. Open carrier auto transport is standard unless enclosed is requested.

Enclosed car carriers are trucks which are boxed in and enclosed from the elements . They are often used for antique cars, collectibles, high-end sport and luxury automobiles. They protect car from weather elements, road debris and any other damage that may be caused by an open carrier environment. They are also used for low riding cars, like many sports cars. Enclosed car carriers can cost an average of $400 - $600 more depending on shipping distances. To request an enclosed carrier just type enclosed in the quote comment box.
