Open Transport
Best value and fastest scheduling for most vehicles.
Open carriers are the workhorses of the industry. Eight to ten vehicles are safely secured on a multi‑level trailer and transported together, which keeps costs low and dates frequent. This option is ideal for daily drivers, SUVs, and trucks in standard condition.
Why choose open transport?
- Economical: Shared trailer space lowers overall cost.
- Faster dispatch: More trucks on more lanes for quicker pickups.
- Fully insured: Every carrier we assign meets FMCSA requirements.
Good to know: Your vehicle will travel exposed to weather and road dust, similar to everyday driving. We recommend a quick rinse at delivery.
Best for: Most modern sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, and relocations where timeline and price matter most.
Enclosed Transport
Extra protection for luxury, classic, low‑clearance, or exotic vehicles.
Enclosed carriers shield your vehicle from weather, dust, and road debris inside a hard‑sided or soft‑sided trailer. Drivers handling enclosed loads specialize in high‑value units and use extended ramps or liftgates for low‑clearance cars.
- Maximum protection: Covered trailer, soft straps or wheel nets, and careful loading.
- Experienced handling: White‑glove drivers accustomed to special instructions.
- Clean interiors: Trailers are kept tidy to protect paint and finishes.
Best for: Luxury cars, supercars, restored classics, show vehicles, and any shipment where protection is the priority.
Motorcycle Shipping
Dedicated equipment and soft straps for a secure ride.
We coordinate motorcycle shipments with carriers that provide wheel chocks, soft ties, and palletized or crate‑free options depending on your route. Your bike is stabilized at multiple points to prevent lean, bounce, or contact with other freight.
- Specialized gear: Soft straps, chocks, and bar protectors to avoid scuffs.
- Flexible loading: Residential pickup available when access permits.
- Real‑time updates: You’ll receive pickup ETA, in‑transit updates, and delivery coordination.
Best for: Cruisers, sport bikes, touring bikes, and trikes.
Classic & Exotic Car Transport
White‑glove handling, liftgate options, and careful route planning.
High‑value and collectible vehicles deserve extra care. We assign enclosed carriers with liftgate capability or extended low‑angle ramps and require detailed inspection at both ends. Drivers are briefed on starting procedures, battery cutoffs, air suspension, and any special ground‑clearance notes.
- Condition reports: Thorough bill of lading with photos at pickup and delivery.
- Custom instructions: Start‑up sequence, cover usage, and battery/immobilizer notes followed by the driver.
- Limited‑touch policy: We minimize handling from origin to destination.
Best for: Restored classics, museum pieces, rare exotics, and custom builds.
Nationwide Routes

We cover all major corridors and many rural lanes through our vetted carrier network. Typical cross‑country transits take 5–7 days once picked up, while regional trips are often 1–3 days. Weather, traffic, and compliance stops can affect ETAs—we’ll keep you informed the whole way.
Popular lanes: New York ↔ Los Angeles, Miami ↔ Dallas, Chicago ↔ Houston, San Francisco ↔ Orlando.
Door‑to‑door: Residential streets permitting; otherwise we arrange a nearby safe meeting point.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my vehicle insured in transit?
Yes. Every carrier we assign is FMCSA‑compliant and carries active cargo insurance. Coverage details appear on your dispatch sheet and bill of lading.
Open vs. enclosed—which should I pick?
Open offers the best value and fastest dates for most daily drivers. Choose enclosed for luxury, classic, exotic, or low‑clearance cars that need extra protection.
Do I need to be present?
An adult owner or authorized representative must be available at pickup and delivery to inspect the vehicle and sign paperwork.
When do I pay?
Quotes are free. A small dispatch fee may apply once you approve the schedule, with the balance due at delivery as listed in your confirmation.
