Race Car Transport Guide

How much does it cost to ship a race car?
The cost to ship a race car mainly depends on the size of the vehicle and the type of transport. Such automobiles are often highly modified, which could means they are bigger and heavier. They are also often transported in a single car carrier, or in an enclosed carrier. Booking a single car carrier raises the price additionally. Enclosed vehicle shipping is more expensive due to three main reasons – protection, insurance and availability.
- Enclosed carriers offer complete protection from road and weather elements.
- Such carriers usually provide insurance coverage up to one or two million dollars.
- By availability we mean the total number of such trucks available in the US.
What type of auto transport service should I choose?
The services divide into two categories – choosing based on the type of carrier and then on the time frame. Both open and enclosed trailers work for any race automobile. Before deciding what is best, review the advantages of either service. Shipping time is always an estimate and thus a more delicate matter to be discussed.
Corsia customers have to first choose between the type of carrier, and the time-frame of delivery.
- By carrier type you need to choose from open or enclosed.
- By time-frame you need to choose standard or expedited service.

After that comes the vehicle pick-up time and the vehicle delivery moment. An important part you need to pay attention to is the vehicle condition report, or also called Bill of Lading. This is a document our carriers complete at pickup and at delivery. At delivery this report will be used to help determine that the vehicle is received in the same condition it was picked-up.
