Enclosed Auction Transport — White-Glove Shipping for Exotics, Classics, and Collectibles
Not every vehicle leaving an auction is just another wholesale unit. Sometimes it’s a freshly painted classic from Manheim Collector Car, a high-end exotic from Copart Elite, or a luxury fleet unit from ADESA. These cars deserve more than open transport—they deserve enclosed protection.
With enclosed carriers, your car rides shielded from weather, road debris, and prying eyes. The equipment is purpose-built: hard-side trailers, lift-gates for low clearance, soft straps/wheel nets, and air-ride suspension. When it comes to protecting collector-grade or showroom-ready cars, enclosed is the only way to go.
How Enclosed Auction Transport Works
Step 1 — Send details. Auction branch, Lot #, VIN, and gate release. Let us know if the vehicle is low clearance, freshly painted, or requires extra care.
Step 2 — Assign a premium carrier. We pair your car with an experienced enclosed operator. Single-car trailers, 2-car haulers, or multi-unit enclosed rigs are available depending on your budget and timeline.
Step 3 — Secure, photo-documented delivery. Driver checks in, loads via lift-gate or ramps, and uses soft straps (never chains). A photo condition report is completed at both pickup and delivery.

FAQs
Is enclosed really worth it?
Yes, if your vehicle is high-value, low-clearance, collectible, or freshly painted.
What’s the difference between soft-side and hard-side enclosed?
We recommend hard-side only—it provides full protection and lift-gate loading.
Do enclosed trailers use chains?
No. Enclosed carriers use soft straps or wheel nets to protect suspension and paint.
Can enclosed handle multiple cars?
Yes. Standard enclosed trailers can hold 4–6 cars; single/2-car enclosed rigs are available for maximum care.
When do I pay?
After a carrier is assigned and you confirm dispatch. No payment until dispatch.
