What is Open Auto Transport?

Open Auto Transport, also known as Open Car Shipping, is the most popular method used by auto transport companies worldwide. In simple terms, it refers to transporting vehicles on an open trailer car transport truck, usually a multi-car hauler. This type of transport is used by car shipping companies and dealerships alike to transport vehicles from one location to another.

Frequently Asked Questions About Open Auto Transport

Is open auto transport a safe shipping method?

Yes, open auto transport is a safe and widely used shipping method. Vehicles are securely fastened to the carrier using industry-standard tie-downs and transport straps to prevent movement. While your vehicle will be exposed to the elements, damage during transport is extremely rare.

What is the main difference between open and enclosed transport?

The primary difference is that open transport exposes vehicles to weather and road debris, while enclosed transport provides full protection within a covered trailer. Enclosed transport is ideal for high-value, classic, or luxury vehicles, while open transport is a cost-effective option for most standard vehicle shipments.

What are the common types of open car carriers?

There are two main types of open auto transport carriers:

  • Two-level multi-car carriers (most common) – These trailers carry up to 10 vehicles at once and are commonly seen transporting cars between dealerships and across the country.

  • Single-level carriers – These carriers transport fewer vehicles and are typically used for shorter distances or expedited shipping.

Is my car or vehicle insured when shipping open transport?

Yes. At Shelby Auto Transport, all vehicles shipped via open auto transport are covered by carrier insurance. We work with professional auto transporters who carry the required coverage to protect your vehicle while in transit.

Is weather a concern with open car transport?

Because vehicles are shipped on an open trailer, they are exposed to rain, snow, dust, and road debris. However, this is no different from driving your car on a highway. If you are concerned about weather exposure, a simple wash upon delivery will restore your car’s cleanliness.

Is open car transportation the cheapest way to ship?

Yes, open auto transport is the most affordable car shipping method. Because open trailers carry multiple vehicles at once, shipping costs are shared among customers, making it the best choice for budget-conscious vehicle transport.

Our Reviews

First time, nerve racking, but was always there to answer any questions that we may have. If there’s no answer when calling, they called back immediately, even without leaving a voice mail. Driver was great and delivered on schedule. Would use again. Thank you.

ShelbyAuto Transport saved me. I made an appointment with another company first who ended up being a no-show. I called Shelby Auto Transport the next day before i panicked and not only were they kind and responsive- but they showed up later that same day. And to top it off- my car showed up at my new location one day early. This was my first time using a service like this. I highly recommend Shelby Auto Transport. By the way- even the driver was cool. If i could give them more than 5 stars- i would. Thank you.

Tammy Robinson

This was my first time using a car moving service and I was very pleased with the whole process working with Shelby Transport. My main point of contact was Ray who was very responsive to messages and was very polite and clear. There were no games played. On the scheduled day, they picked up my car promptly and delivered it promptly as well on the delivery date with no issues. I would definitely recommend this company to my family and friends if they ever needed an auto transport service.
