Enclosed Auto Transport & Car Shipping

Enclosed auto transport is a vehicle shipping option available through Windsor Auto Transport for customers who prefer their vehicle to be transported inside an enclosed trailer rather than on an open carrier.

Windsor Auto Transport helps customers request vehicle transport quotes and connect their shipment with transporters that match their needs and budget. Both enclosed and open carrier options are available through our quote process.

What Is Enclosed Auto Transport?

With enclosed auto transport, the vehicle is transported inside an enclosed carrier. The trailer provides additional separation from outside road and weather exposure during transportation compared with an open carrier.

When to Consider Enclosed Car Shipping

• Additional protection: the vehicle is transported inside an enclosed trailer during transit.
• Special vehicles: customers transporting classic, collector, luxury or other valued vehicles may wish to consider an enclosed carrier.
• Carrier choice: Windsor Auto Transport allows customers to request enclosed transport or compare it with an open carrier quote.
• Broker support: our team helps connect your shipment with a transporter based on your vehicle and shipping requirements.

How the Enclosed Auto Transport Process Works

1. Request Your Free Quote

Enter your pickup and destination information, vehicle year, make and model, vehicle condition and preferred carrier type into the Windsor Auto Transport quote form.

2. Select Enclosed Transport

Select Enclosed as your carrier type. If you are unsure which option is appropriate, you can request pricing for both open and enclosed transport.

3. Review and Book Your Transport

Review your vehicle and shipment information before proceeding with the booking request. The booking process collects the pickup, delivery and contact details required for the shipment.

4. Vehicle Transport

Your shipment can then proceed through the vehicle transport process with the carrier assigned to the transport.

Enclosed vs. Open Auto Transport

The main difference is the type of carrier used. Enclosed transport places the vehicle inside an enclosed trailer, while open auto transport carries the vehicle on an open carrier. The appropriate option depends on the vehicle and your individual shipping requirements.

Request an Enclosed Auto Transport Quote

Use our vehicle transport quote form to provide your origin, destination and vehicle details and select Enclosed as the carrier type. You can also request pricing for both carrier types before deciding.
