Insurance and Carrier Compliance
All carriers are licensed by FMCSA and DOT, bonded, and carry commercial cargo insurance.
What to Expect During Transit
After pickup, your vehicle moves through our carrier network with real-time tracking. You’ll receive periodic driver updates with delivery timing as the carrier nears your destination.
Why Auto Transport Beats Driving Yourself
For long-distance moves, auto transport typically saves money, time, and stress compared to driving the vehicle yourself. Specifically, you avoid fuel costs (often $300-$500 for cross-country), hotel stays during multi-day drives, food expenses on the road, wear and tear on your vehicle (5,000+ miles cross-country adds depreciation), and the time investment of multi-day driving. Furthermore, professional carriers handle the logistics while you fly to your destination and arrive rested. For relocations, snowbird trips, and major moves, auto transport is often the more cost-effective and convenient option.
Choosing Between Open and Enclosed Transport
Most vehicles ship via open carrier transport — the same trucks dealerships use to receive inventory. Specifically, open carriers haul 7-10 vehicles efficiently and offer the most affordable pricing. Enclosed transport adds 40-80% to the cost but provides full weather protection, dust and debris protection, and concealment. We recommend enclosed for luxury vehicles ($75,000+), classic cars, exotic vehicles, vehicles under warranty restrictions, and high-value collector vehicles. Standard daily drivers ship perfectly fine via open carrier.
