Enclosed delivery

We bring the car to your driveway

Behind closed doors, insured the whole way, to any address in the lower 48. Most of our buyers never stand next to the car before it arrives. You get the number before you commit, not after.

The difference

Why we do not put classics on an open trailer

What we use
1993 Ford Mustang LX — illustrative photo
Enclosed trailer
  • No road debris, no salt, no hail, no rain on fresh paint
  • Nobody sees what is inside. The truck is not an advertisement
  • Soft straps over the wheels, not chains over the suspension
  • Higher insurance limits, because the cargo is worth more
What most quotes mean
2000 Chevrolet Camaro SS — illustrative photo
Open trailer
  • Cheaper by a few hundred dollars, and that is the whole argument
  • Your car rides in weather, gravel and whatever the truck ahead drops
  • Fine for a daily driver, wrong for paint you cannot re-order

What if I live somewhere a big truck cannot reach?

Tell us about access restrictions before booking. Confirm a suitable meeting point with the carrier and include any additional arrangements or charges in the written quote.
