Types of Enclosed Carriers You Should Know

Multi-car Enclosed Carrier

This carrier has been built to transport multiple cars at once. Sometimes, cars can be arranged at upper and lower level. These trailers are also meant for transportation of vehicles that are expensive. The cars will be protected from any danger while being moved.

Why Enclosed Transportation Services Are More Costly

Enclosed transport services are more expensive as compared to open transport services. Some reasons for this will be highlighted below.

  • The enclosed transport carriers available are very few as compared to open transport carriers. In other words, they are in very short supply as compared to demand. Most auto shipping companies only have open transport carriers. 
  • Using enclosed transport means that you have been given a delivery date. It is not like open transport when there will be delays. When you choose the former, your car will be given better attention to ensure it is delivered timely. 
  • Enclosed carriers are more expensive to purchase for companies. Due to this, they tend to charge higher shipping fees after such trailers have been purchased. 
  • The maximum number of cars that most enclosed carriers can haul at once is 4. Open carriers on the other hand can carry up to 10 at once. You will notice that even after paying very high fees, auto shipping companies don’t make much when rendering enclosed transport services. 
  • Finally, there is the seasonal factor. Shipping your car with an enclosed carrier during winter could prove to be very expensive. This happens when the carrier is expected to pass through roads that are not easily accessible during such season. 

There is no doubt that your car is safe with open vehicle transport. However, enclosed transport offers much more. It is a great option when the vehicle to be transported is expensive.

Method of transportation

Before choosing a method of transporting your car, it is important you consider two factors. These could be its value and size. If your car is larger than normal cars, it means your carrier will be carrying few cars. This means you will end up paying more.
