Enclosed Car Transport

Our enclosed car transport service exists for vehicles that cannot afford a scratch. These are the cars the Automoves covered fleet moves most, each one staying with a single driver from pickup to delivery.

When to Choose Enclosed Transport

Shipping an Exotic or Luxury Car

You own a luxury or exotic car that should never face road debris, weather, or attention on an open trailer. Our luxury car transport service moves it inside a fully covered carrier, the standard for luxury car transportation services and exotic car transport across Canada.

Shipping a Classic Car

You have a classic or collector vehicle heading to a show, a sale, or a new garage. Our classic car shipping service in Canada protects the original paint, chrome, and trim with fully covered car transport. Automoves records the condition throughout the shipping process.

Shipping a Low-Clearance Car or Supercar

You drive a supercar or a low clearance vehicle that cannot clear a standard ramp. Our enclosed carriers use liftgates and low-angle loading designed for low clearance car transport, so a front splitter or air suspension is never at risk.

High-Value Purchases and Sales

You are buying or selling a high-value vehicle and want it delivered in the exact condition it left. Our enclosed car shipping service provides that protection end to end, with white glove car transport from an owned-fleet carrier rather than a broker passing your car to a stranger.

Why Choose Automoves for
Enclosed Car Transport

Automoves owns its fleet, so the carrier, equipment, and driver are all ours, not a broker's subcontractor. Your vehicle stays with one driver, tracked through Automoves ONE, on carriers built for high-value, exotic, and classic cars.

Loaded on a Hydraulic Lift Gate

Our enclosed carriers load through a hydraulic lift gate rather than a steep ramp, raising the car level with the trailer floor. For a supercar or a low clearance vehicle, this is the difference between a clean load and a front splitter or air dam catching on the incline.

Secured With Soft Tie-Downs

Soft tie-down systems secure the vehicle without placing unnecessary stress on wheels, suspension, or body components. This allows the car to remain stable throughout transport while reducing the risk of marks or damage from traditional securing methods.

White-Glove Handling, Fewer Cars Per Load

Enclosed carriers typically move fewer vehicles at once, allowing more space around each car and more attention during loading and unloading. It is a transport method designed for vehicles where condition and handling matter as much as delivery time.

A Specialized Carrier and Driver

Your vehicle is handled by a driver and carrier equipped specifically for enclosed transport. Because Automoves operates its own fleet, the vehicle stays within one coordinated transport operation from pickup through delivery.

Costs & Timelines

Enclosed Transport Costs and Timelines

What affects your enclosed transport cost and timeline depends on a few operational variables.

Need help planning a shipment?
Speak with our team

Enclosed carrier availability

Enclosed car transport costs more than open because enclosed carriers are less available. The earlier you request enclosed auto shipping quotes, the more scheduling flexibility you get.

Vehicle value and coverage

Higher-value vehicles carry higher coverage on the move, which factors into the rate. Luxury car transport, exotic car transport, and supercar transport are priced to reflect the care they require. Classic car shipping Canada is priced the same way, since these vehicles are often irreplaceable.

Low-clearance and oversized handling

Low clearance car transport for exotics and supercars needs a hydraulic lift gate and careful loading. Oversized vehicles need specific trailer configurations. Both affect which enclosed trailer is assigned and what it costs.

Single-vehicle vs shared enclosed

White glove car transport, on a single-vehicle or limited-capacity trailer, costs more than sharing space on a covered car transport load. It buys priority handling and fewer vehicles beside yours.

Distance and route

High-traffic corridors between major cities have the best enclosed carrier availability, so positioning a trailer costs less there. Less common routes need more lead time. Longer routes cost more overall, but the rate per kilometre improves on longer hauls.

Season

Car show season, collector auction cycles, and winter storage moves are the peak windows for enclosed demand. Enclosed capacity tightens fastest during these periods, so book ahead.

Common Questions About Enclosed Car Transport

If your vehicle has significant financial or sentimental value, enclosed is the right choice. Open transport is safe for standard vehicles but leaves them exposed to weather and road debris.

For luxury, exotic, classic, or high-value vehicles, yes. The added cost of enclosed transport is a fraction of the cost of repairing even minor paint or body damage.

Luxury vehicles are loaded onto enclosed trailers using hydraulic lift gates to avoid ramp inclines. Soft tie-downs protect the body and wheels throughout transit.

Luxury cars, exotics, supercars, classic and collector vehicles, low-clearance cars, and any vehicle where appearance and condition are a priority.
