Home FAQ Open Transport

Are there any height restrictions for open car carrier shipping?

Yes. Drivers are required to load no higher than 13' 6". For this reason overly large vehicles will need to be shipped on a low-boy trailer or in the last position of a wedge style trailer. You will need to make your shipping company aware of your vehicles height if it has been altered from factory specifications.

Will my car get dirty during transport?

Depending on weather conditions, your vehicle may stay clean or get very dirty during transport. Most likely you will wish to wash your vehicle after delivery.

How many cars will an open car carrier hold?

Open car carriers usually range in capacity from two to ten cars. If you are planning on filling a trailer you should consult with your shipping company to accurately determine how many vehicles will fit on a single load. Ten-car carriers may only hold eight or nine vehicles if they are fairly large units.

Why should I ship my car on an open car carrier versus an enclosed carrier?

Shipping your car on an open car carrier is much more cost effective than shipping on an enclosed carrier. There are also many more open car carriers than enclosed carriers so your vehicle will most likely be picked up more quickly if you ship on an open carrier.
