Open car transport is one of the most commonly used vehicle shipping methods in the United States. It involves transporting automobiles on specialized open-air trailers designed to carry multiple vehicles.
This transportation method is frequently chosen by individual vehicle owners, dealerships, families, and customers purchasing automobiles from distant locations.
Open auto transport involves securing vehicles onto a purpose-built carrier trailer.
Depending on the equipment, the trailer may carry several automobiles on one or two levels.
Before loading, the driver typically inspects the vehicle and documents its existing condition. The vehicle is then positioned and secured using equipment appropriate for the trailer and vehicle.
Once the shipment reaches its destination, the vehicle is unloaded and inspected again.
Because multiple vehicles share transportation capacity, open shipping is generally more economical than enclosed shipping.
Budget-Friendly Transportation
Open shipping generally offers a lower price than enclosed transportation. For standard passenger vehicles, it is often an effective way to balance transportation costs and convenience.
Common Carrier Availability
Open auto carriers operate on many established transportation routes. This may offer greater scheduling flexibility than some specialized shipping options.
Suitable for Different Vehicles
Many sedans, SUVs, crossovers, and pickup trucks can be transported using open trailers, subject to vehicle dimensions and carrier requirements.
Less Long-Distance Driving
Shipping your vehicle avoids adding the mileage associated with driving it to a distant destination.
Practical for Relocations
If you’re moving to a different city or state, arranging vehicle transportation separately can help simplify your relocation plans.

Step 3: Prepare Your Car
Remove unnecessary personal belongings, document the vehicle’s condition, and follow preparation instructions.
Step 4: Coordinate Pickup

Step 5: Receive Your Vehicle
Inspect the automobile at delivery and compare its condition with the original pickup report.
Open auto shipping prices depend on several factors.
Distance is important, but the total mileage is not the only consideration. Route popularity, vehicle dimensions, seasonal demand, carrier availability, and pickup accessibility can all influence pricing.
Larger vehicles may occupy additional trailer space, while non-running vehicles may require specialized loading arrangements.
Flexible pickup dates may provide additional scheduling options.
For an accurate estimate, request a quote using your actual vehicle and route details.
Open transport exposes vehicles to normal outdoor conditions during shipping, including rain, dust, and possible road debris.
Enclosed transportation uses a covered trailer to provide additional shielding from these conditions.
Open transport is generally more affordable and commonly selected for everyday vehicles.
Enclosed transportation may be preferable for classic automobiles, luxury cars, exotic vehicles, and certain custom-built vehicles.
Both options require appropriate loading, securement, and handling procedures.
A little preparation can help prevent avoidable complications.
Clean your vehicle before pickup so its condition can be inspected easily.
Take photographs of the exterior, including existing scratches or dents.
Remove valuables, loose accessories, and prohibited items.
Check for fluid leaks and disclose mechanical problems.
Confirm that the vehicle can start, steer, roll, and brake normally. If it cannot, notify the transportation provider before booking.
Follow the carrier’s instructions regarding fuel level, alarms, and keys.
