Enclosed vs. Open: Which Is Right for You?
Enclosed Transport – Ideal for luxury, exotics, classics, and newly detailed vehicles. Protection from weather/road debris, lift-gate loading, soft-strap handling.
Open Transport – Most economical and widely available. Great for daily drivers and second cars, with the same insured, vetted carriers.
What Affects Your Snowbird Rate
- Distance, route demand, and seasonality
- Enclosed vs. open carrier selection
- Vehicle size/ground clearance
- Exact pick-up/delivery flexibility (narrower windows can increase cost)
- Remote or restricted access locations
We’ll quote transparently and hold pricing within a reasonable dispatch window, then reconfirm before assignment.
Three Steps to Ship Your Car
- Request a Quote – Share origin/destination, vehicle details, and date range.
- Schedule & Confirm – Pick your carrier type (enclosed/open) and preferred window.
- Track & Receive – We send updates and coordinate delivery with your community guidelines.
Pre-Transport Checklist (Save This)
- Wash & photo the vehicle (interior/exterior) for condition documentation.
- Remove toll tags & personal items; leave ~¼ tank of fuel.
- Fold mirrors; provide one working key set.
- Share gate codes/HOA instructions; confirm any time-of-day restrictions.
- If low clearance or aftermarket kit, tell us—lift-gate enclosed can be required.
FAQs for Snowbirds
How far in advance should I book?
During peak season, 2–4 weeks ahead is ideal—especially for enclosed transport.
Do I need to be present?
You or an authorized adult should be available for hand-off and inspection at pick-up and delivery.
Can I ship personal items inside the car?
For safety and compliance, we recommend empty interiors. If small items must travel, advise us first—policies and limits apply.
What if my plans change?
We’ll work with your new dates and update dispatch accordingly. Flexibility helps keep costs down.
Is my vehicle insured in transit?
Yes—our carriers carry active cargo insurance. We document condition at origin and destination.
