Used for transporting high-value, luxury, exotic, vintage, or classic cars that require extra protection and care.
Enclosed carriers are designed with solid Enclosed Carrier walls and a roof, typically made from metal or fiberglass, that protect vehicles from weather conditions like rain, snow, and sun, as well as from road debris, dust, and insects. These carriers may be single-level or multi-level and often include features like:
Hydraulic lift gates for loading low-clearance vehicles
Soft tie-down systems to secure the vehicle without causing damage
Climate control in some high-end carriers
Limited vehicle capacity, usually transporting 1 to 6 vehicles at a time
Because of their design and attention to detail, enclosed carriers are preferred when shipping vehicles that need maximum security and minimal exposure.
When to Use an Enclosed Carrier
Using an enclosed carrier is ideal for:
Luxury cars, such as Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and Bentleys
Classic and antique vehicles, which may have high collectible value
Show cars that are transported to auto exhibitions or events
Custom or modified vehicles that require special handling
Motorcycles or small specialty vehicles
If the car owner is concerned about preserving the condition of their vehicle during transport, enclosed shipping is often the best option.
