Open-Air / Open Car Transport Services
Open-air transport – Vehicles are loaded onto a multi-car carrier. There will be up to ten cars on this type of trailer before it heads to its destination. The carrier may pick up and deliver the vehicle along the way. This is the type of truck that you see new car dealers receiving their cars on. A single car Rollback or Flatbed truck can transport a single vehicle; this option is usually too costly for door-to-door
transport services.
Open-air vehicle shipping services are more popular and cost-effective than other car shipping options. However, if you are concerned about your car being open and exposed to the elements, enclosed transport is available.
Before you decide how to transport your vehicle call client services to understand all the available options.
Enclosed Car Transport Service
Enclosed Transport carriers – Shield the vehicle from the elements; this option offers the best possible protection at a higher cost than open-air transport. There are two vehicle shipping services available when you choose Enclosed Transport; soft-sided and hard-sided.
Soft-Sided Enclosed Transport – A car shipping trailer covered in canvas or vinyl, offering limited protection from the elements. This type of trailer is more protected than open-air. Soft-sided transport trailers can prevent most damage from small rocks, wind, and rain.
Hard-Sided Enclosed Transport – The best car transport options available. Hard-sided enclosed transport trailers provide the best possible protection from the elements. It also provides the best possible security. It keeps the looky-loos from seeing your vehicle in transport, which means they cannot touch it.
There are advantages and disadvantages to shipping either way. Before you decide how to transport your vehicle, please discuss all available options with WolfePack Transport client services to understand the pros and cons.

Snowmobile transport is different from car shipping, but it is similar to other all-terrain transport. Snowmobiles are high-performance vehicles designed to travel across snowy terrain. Snowmobiles are designed as off-road vehicles used when traveling off-road in snowy and cold weather months when other vehicles find it difficult to drive across snow and ice; of course, there may be other reasons to own a snowmobile.

Non Ops (Not Drivable) / Salvage
Non-Ops Shipping is much different from the shipping process for an operable vehicle. It takes a great deal of labor and the use of special tools and equipment not generally used to transport a vehicle in good condition. Non-Operational vehicle shipping services will raise the cost of the transport by at least $100. Luckily, you will still find the help of professionals extraordinarily beneficial and cost-effective. Vehicles need to be able to roll, brake and steer.
If you need to transport your vehicle, but it has a dead battery, it is best to replace it before the carrier/driver arrives at the pickup location. An average car battery is approximately $100, and non-op fees are $100, so it is cheaper to replace the battery (Video - How to Change a Car Battery).
Salvaged car shipping is more detailed than shipping a functional and unharmed car. It takes the use of different equipment such as a forklift. A forklift is used to get the vehicle on and off the trailer as it can not be driven or winched on and off the trailer. Unfortunately, not all auto transport companies can provide services for salvaged cars. WolfePack can help.
How To Prepare Your For Transport
Before utilizing vehicle shipping services, preparing your vehicle before the carrier/driver arrives is essential. It is always safe to get your vehicle repaired the same day you place your order for shipping or one week before the first available pickup date. Preparing ahead of time will take away some stress when it comes time to transport your vehicle. Helpful Advice, make the car shipping process easy.
Door to Door Transport Services
Door to Door Transport is the most common form of Vehicle Shipping Services available. The carrier/driver will get as close to the pickup address as physically possible. When getting ready to transport your vehicle check the route the carrier/driver will take and make sure a tractor (big rig) and 55’ trailer can easily get to the desired pickup or delivery location, and there are no low line trees or power lines. A little planning goes a long way in reducing stress when utilizing a car shipping company.
Terminal to Terminal Transport Services
When setting up WolfePack Vehicle Shipping Services, a terminal may need to be utilized. A terminal is only recommended when the client has no other means to have a contact person at the vehicle picked up or delivered location. Terminal locations charge a daily rate to park your vehicle, and the cost can go up quickly, so if you are not available to be at the pickup or delivery location, look for a friend or family member that can assist. When moving to a new city and checking with your new employer, property manager of your new home, or the realtor you worked with to get your new home, they are an excellent resource when you have to transport your vehicle.
What to Know When Shipping Your Vehicle
You need to be aware of several areas when you decide on car shipping. Vehicle Shipping Services 101.
Roll On Roll Off Services (RoRo)

The History of Vehicle Shipping
Vehicle Shipping Services has a long history. Although not much has changed over the years, it is still the open frontier. Learn how car shipping all began.
What Determines Price for Shipping
- Distance: Vehicle shipping services are determined by the distance you are shipping. If you are shipping your vehicle from coast to coast, the price point will be higher than shipping only a few states over. It is less expensive to ship your vehicle to a more popular destination on a well-traveled route. If shipping to an obscure location, prepare to pay a higher price, and pickup and delivery may take more time. This will require a detour from the carrier's usual route.
- Make/Model/Type: The type of vehicle can determine the price you pay. Different styles of vehicles require different types of transport equipment. The size of your vehicle also determines the price you will pay, as it will take up more or less space on the carrier.
- Closed vs. Open Carrier: If you have a classic or High-End Vehicle, you may consider shipping it in a closed container. Enclosed car shipping is more expensive and not the preferred shipping method for high-end or classic vehicles. If your vehicle is expensive, it may be worth the investment. Keep in mind that insurance would cover any issues that may arise. Please checkout open vs. enclosed shipping when you are ready to transport your vehicle.
