Open vs. Enclosed Car Shipping: Overview

Open car shipping is typically more affordable and commonly used for standard vehicles, but it exposes your car to the elements and potential damage. On the other hand, enclosed car shipping offers increased protection from weather and road debris, making it pricier but often worth it for luxury or exotic vehicles. It ultimately comes down to balancing cost and the value of your vehicle when deciding between the two options.

What Is Open Car Shipping?

While open auto shipping may leave vehicles more vulnerable to weather and road debris, it remains a popular and cost-effective choice due to its ability to transport multiple cars at once, making it an efficient option for truckers and customers alike. Despite the potential for issues to arise, many individuals and businesses opt for open car transportation for its affordability and reliability, particularly dealerships transporting new cars.

What Is Enclosed Car Shipping?

Enclosed car transport offers added protection and is commonly used for high-value vehicles like sports cars and classics. However, due to the higher costs associated with this method and the lower demand for transporting expensive vehicles, enclosed auto transport is less common than other options. Carriers can transport fewer vehicles at a time with this method, contributing to its higher pricing compared to open transport.

Open vs. Enclosed Car Shipping Costs

As mentioned above, enclosed auto shipping costs more than open car shipping for the same distance. The limited availability of enclosed carriers results in increased prices.

The Difference Between a Towing Company and an Auto Transport Company

What is a Towing Company?

Towing companies are commonly used for short-distance and emergency situations where a vehicle needs to be relocated promptly and or moved from tight spaces.

In addition to towing services, many towing companies offer roadside assistance such as jump-starts, tire changes, fuel delivery, and lockout services. These services are designed to help drivers who are stranded on the side of the road due to a mechanical issue or other unforeseen circumstances. By providing a range of services beyond just towing, towing companies aim to help drivers in a variety of situations and provide convenient solutions to common roadside problems as a result they are limited by distance, usually less than 100 miles. 

What is an Auto Transport Company?

An auto transport company, on the other hand, specializes in long-distance transport of vehicles, typically using carriers or flatbeds to move cars safely and efficiently. They focus on transporting vehicles for purposes such as moving across the country, relocating for work, or buying/selling a car from out of state. Unlike towing companies, auto transport companies take the necessary precautions to protect vehicles during transport, as their priority is ensuring the safe delivery of the vehicle to its destination. While towing companies offer immediate assistance in emergencies, auto transport companies provide a more specialized and reliable service for long-distance transportation needs.
