What is the difference between open and enclosed car transport?

Open transport is the most common method — the vehicle is loaded on an open trailer exposed to the elements. Enclosed transport uses a covered trailer and is preferred for classic, luxury, or high-value vehicles.

Can I load personal items in my car during transport?

One small box or suitcase in the trunk is generally allowed. Carriers are not legally permitted to transport household goods, but a single box is acceptable.

Excellent and professional service at a competitive price. The vehicle showed up on time and the drivers were courteous and quick. We had to make a few adjustments on the delivery location because of roads etc but this was no problem. Great experience and I felt they took care of my car for me. This was my deceased mothers car so it has sentimental value to me and they really cared about the car. Thank you... Date of experience: October 29, 2024

I've used Corsia Logistics twice now to send a Porsche and classic Mercedes. Both times the car was picked up on time, the driver was communicative and on my second shipment, arrived a day earlier than scheduled. They have a tracking system, so I know where my car is at all times. I will continue to use Corsia for all my long-haul car transportation needs. Date of experience: October 28, 2024

We paid extra for a guaranteed date for pickup and they were able to pick up that day. The car arrived a day earlier than scheduled. The gentleman who transported was friendly and communicative. 100% would use this company again. Date of experience: September 30, 2024

Corsia was amazing. Personable, respectful, and punctual. I went with them after passing up on some of the other major players. Glad I did! Just end to end great experience and customer service. Employees were well trained! Date of experience: September 23, 2024

Don’t hesitate to use them! Efficient, responsive, honest and affordable! I scheduled an enclosed carrier with them and received the car the same day it was picked up. Zero issues. Excellent service! Date of experience: September 17, 2024

I have used Corsia Logistics 4 times now with high end cars being transported from Northern Ca. to Southern Ca. and back. Each time the service has worked perfectly. Never an issue with timing, service or with my cars. I will continue to use this service in the future. Date of experience: June 10, 2024

If you are wondering how much it will cost to ship an automobile, our fast auto transport price calculator can help. The base price and auto shipping cost per mile is determined by the vehicle make and model and the distance. Whether you choose to ship a car with an open car carrier or enclosed, the price is always accurate and current.

How much do car transport companies charge?

This is usually the first questions customers research. First, review and understand how auto transport works. Most importantly, research what is a current cost to ship a car, and what is a reasonable current market price to ship a car across the country.

Check with our agents for discounts and current promotions. We are always ready to work with your budget, and offer flexible car shipping dates and options.

Research a few companies and compare their prices and services. Then you should decide what best fits your budget and preferences. When you search, make sure you check main aspects such as licensing with the USDOT and FMCSA, insurance, and customer reviews.

Car size & weight

The size of the vehicle matters. Smaller cars are cheaper to ship, while bigger, heavier vehicles are more expensive.

Car condition

Whether your car is running or not will affect your final rate. To ship a non-running vehicle we need a truck that can winch it onto the trailer.

Transport type

The type of carrier you choose will affect your rate as well. Open auto transport is the standard shipping method in the industry.

Shipping distance

The distance always affects the rate. The longer the distance the less it costs per mile, but that is never the decisive factor in the price.

Ship a Car in Different Seasons

Shipping a Car This Summer

Summer is the busiest season to ship a car. Car transport services are in high demand, whether you need an open car transport or an enclosed carrier. University sessions are ending, employees are relocating, and vehicle haulers get fully booked. Fortunately for customers who need to ship a car or two, greater competition in the auto transport brings down car transport prices.

Shipping a Vehicle in Fall

Milder weather and increased driver availability will result in a somewhat lower car shipping cost, when booking car transport this fall. While it may not provide the same car shipping discounts as late winter, fall season is still a smart time to call an auto transport company if you need to move a vehicle.

Shipping a Car in Winter

Car transport in winter season can take longer than in other seasons due to delays caused by snow and ice. Additionally, many drivers have less daylight, which sometimes affects deliveries. Things can get complicated as the days get shorter and the conditions for auto transporters become more difficult. When looking for a low-cost auto transport price and a reliable carrier you may want to consider certain months.

Shipping A Car in Spring

One of the best times to ship your car with a professional car transport service is early spring. The weather improves fast, the days get longer and more auto transport drivers are back on the road ready to work and ship cars across the country or the state. During that time, the industry often sees new drivers joining the industry.
