What is the difference between Open and Enclosed transport?

Open transport is the most common car shipping method. Almost 97% of all vehicles delivered in USA are on this type of trailers. Keep in mind that the car is exposed to outside elements such as rain, sun, dust, etc. However, it is considered a safe and secure way of transporting your vehicle. Most new cars are delivered to dealers by open trailer. Enclosed transport is often desired for owners of collector cars and used for classic, luxury, vintage, custom and sports cars. The vehicle is not exposed to weather elements and flying objects and prevents possible rock chips.

How much does it cost to ship a car on a open carrier?

When determining your shipping rate, there are a few things we consider to provide you with an accurate price quote. The mileage between the origin and destination is the biggest factor that contributes to your total rate. In addition to the distance of your relocation, another factor is the type and condition of the vehicle being shipped. The final factor is the date of desired transportation.

Is my vehicle insured during transport on an open carrier?

All shipments include basic liability coverage. Comprehensive insurance options are available for an elevated level of shipment coverage during transit. You will be able to select a level of coverage during the booking process.

WOW! What a journey. I scheduled to ship my car from NYC the weekend I went down for a few holiday dinners. We had planned for pick up Friday, but the drivers truck broke, and he was delayed. I left my keys with a relative since the pick up was at their house, and I went to my first celebration in CT. The driver wasn't able to come till the next day, when we realized my relative had flown down to FL with my keys in her car.... George was beyond patient with me, between scheduling the driver, finding my a new driver once my keys got back, and communicating very clearly and honestly throughout the whole process. I paid exactly what I was quoted for, the car arrived a day after it was picked up in IL. Would highly recommend! If I ever need this service again I will be coming back to Unlimited Auto Trans. 11/10

Very impressed by George's honesty. He took the time to explain the whole process. I've shipped cars before and the other companies changed the rate one day before pick up.

Vladislav A.

I rarely write reviews, but I feel like this time I had to. Absolutely the best customer service there is, I was notified on the progress of the delivery at multiple stages. The drivers that dropped off my vehicle were very professional, very careful and very easy to work with. There wasn’t even a speck of dust on my new car, they literally took care of it like it was their own. The price point is great for the way everything was handled, and I just can’t recommend them enough. If I was you, I would not trust anybody else with delivering my car. Hands down best service I have received in a really long time.

Simona G.

Unlimited handled my vehicle like true professionals. They were very clear on the pick up and preparation on my end. They showed up and loaded my baby with care. Nothing was overlooked. Very detailed in securing the load. When my vehicle arrived, it was on time and with no stress. I will use Unlimited again and highly recommend
