Auto Shipping Breakdown: Enclosed Carriers

Like open carriers, an enclosed carrier is a type of auto shipping truck that can transport your vehicle from anywhere, to anywhere in the U.S.

Unlike an open carrier, though, enclosed carriers are designed to haul vehicles that can't be exposed to the elements that open carriers expose their vehicles to.

Enclosed shipping is rather expensive, so it's generally recommended that you only ship vehicles that are really worth the extra money via an enclosed carrier - but they do offer a lot of added protection.

If you're shipping a car you drive every day to work, enclosed carriers are probably not for you. Read more about enclosed carriers by visiting our enclosed auto transport page.
