Car shipping and auto transport to and from:
The two most common auto transport options for Iowa
OPEN car shipping
An open trailer is a safe and reliable option and the most common type of transport used for shipping a car by ground. With open transport, cars can easily be arranged and quickly loaded and unloaded, making this option efficient and cost-effective. Vehicles are not protected from weather and road conditions and may accumulate a bit of dirt during their journey, which is to be expected.
ENCLOSED car shipping
Enclosed transport is ideal for classic, exotic, or luxury cars, as well as motorcycles and powersports. It's also necessary for vehicles with low ground clearance, as they may need a hydraulic lift gate or ramp for loading onto the truck. Enclosed transport provides ultimate protection against weather and road hazards, ensuring added peace of mind when shipping your valuable asset.
