The best transport option depends on the vehicle, your budget and the level of protection you prefer. Open and enclosed auto transport can both provide nationwide vehicle shipping, but each option is designed for a different type of shipment.
Open transport is the most common way to move cars, trucks and SUVs throughout the country. Vehicles are shipped on an open carrier similar to those commonly seen transporting new vehicles.
Enclosed transport places the vehicle inside a covered carrier, providing additional protection from weather and normal road debris during shipment. It is commonly selected for valuable or specialty vehicles.

I needed my truck shipped from Texas to Florida and American Auto Express made the whole process incredibly easy.

I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
After dealing with another transport company that kept changing the price and giving me the runaround, American Auto Express was a completely different experience.

Auto Transport FAQ
Shipping a vehicle can feel unfamiliar if you have never done it before. We have answered some of the most common questions about auto transport, pickup, delivery, pricing and vehicle preparation so you know what to expect before your shipment begins.
Transit time depends mainly on the distance between pickup and delivery, the route, weather, traffic and carrier scheduling. Shorter regional shipments may take only a few days, while coast-to-coast vehicle shipping can take longer. Your transport specialist can provide a more specific estimate based on your route.
Open auto transport is the most common method used to ship everyday cars, trucks and SUVs. Vehicles are transported on an open multi-car carrier. Enclosed auto transport provides additional protection from road debris and weather exposure and is often chosen for classic, exotic, luxury or specialty vehicles.
Auto transport pricing depends on several factors including mileage, vehicle size, transport type, pickup and delivery locations, vehicle condition, timing and current carrier availability. Longer routes typically cost more overall, although the cost per mile may decrease on longer shipments.
Booking ahead generally gives you more flexibility with pickup timing and carrier availability. Many customers begin arranging transport one to two weeks before their preferred pickup window. Expedited transport may also be available when a vehicle needs to move sooner.
Personal-item policies can vary by carrier. In general, customers should keep personal belongings to a minimum and avoid leaving valuable or prohibited items inside the vehicle. Always confirm the specific carrier requirements before pickup.
Before pickup, remove personal belongings and loose accessories, make sure the vehicle has enough fuel for loading and unloading, check for leaks or mechanical concerns and document the vehicle's existing condition. The carrier will typically complete an inspection at pickup.
Inoperable vehicles can often be transported, but the carrier must know the vehicle's condition in advance. Vehicles that cannot start, steer, brake or roll may require additional equipment such as a winch, which can affect carrier availability and pricing.
Auto transport is generally arranged as door-to-door service whenever the pickup and delivery locations are safe and accessible for a large transport truck. If a street is too narrow, restricted or difficult to access, you and the driver may agree on a nearby safe meeting location.
