Professional and Stress-Free Transport
Tiger Transport was recommended to me while shopping for an Auto transport company. Their quote was competitive but their process and personal communication was professional. I chose Tiger, although they weren't the lowest price. Chris handled the details of my transport from Las Vegas to Sarasota FL, seamlessly. Chris kept in constant communication with me to keep me aware of the pick up, transport and delivery schedules. read more...A year ago

Same Day Pickup, Next Day Delivery
We have never needed to transport an automobile before. This company and their website are so straight forward and easy to navigate! They picked up our vehicle the same day and it was delivered to a neighboring state the next day! Leo was our contact person. He went above and beyond!

WHAT IS ENCLOSED CAR SHIPPING?
Enclosed auto transport is a premium vehicle shipping method designed for cars that require maximum protection during transit. Your vehicle is transported inside a fully covered trailer, isolated from weather conditions, road debris, and external exposure while remaining securely fastened throughout the journey.
Compared to open carrier car shipping, enclosed transport is most often chosen for luxury, exotic, classic, or collectible vehicles, as well as cars being transported for special events. This service still supports door to door car shipping, providing careful pickup and delivery with enhanced security.
HOW LONG DOES ENCLOSED SHIPPING TAKE?
Enclosed vehicle transport timelines depend on distance, carrier routing, and the availability of specialized covered trailers. Because enclosed carriers move fewer vehicles per trip and operate on more selective routes, delivery usually takes slightly longer than open car shipping but provides added protection throughout the journey.
Standard Transit Times
• Short-distance enclosed moves: 2–5 business days • Long-distance enclosed transport: 7–12 business days
- Enclosed carriers focus on planned, high-quality routes rather than high-volume corridors. Metro-to-metro deliveries are typically faster, while rural or off-route locations may require additional coordination for door-to-door car shipping.
Actual Route Timeline
• Regional routes (under 600 miles): Texas to Louisiana usually completes in 2–3 days
• Mid-range routes (600–1,400 miles): Illinois to Florida averages 4–6 days
• Long-distance routes (1,800+ miles): California to New York typically requires 8–10 days
Enclosed Transport Considerations
Because enclosed auto transport uses specialized equipment and smaller fleets, pickup windows may be narrower. Transit times can increase by 2–4 days compared to open carriers, especially during peak seasons or when transporting luxury, classic, or specialty vehicles that require extra handling.
Factors That May Affect Delivery
- • Weather and road conditions
- • Traffic or route changes
- • Driver scheduling and rest periods
- • Pickup or delivery in remote areas
Tips to Ensure a Smooth Process
- • Book early to reserve your spot
- • Be flexible with pickup and drop-off dates
- • Stay in contact with your transport coordinator for updates

Open vs Enclosed Car Shipping
Tiger Auto Transport
At Tiger Auto Transport, we offer both open and enclosed car shipping to match your vehicle, budget, and timeline.
-
Open Car Shipping Open car shipping is the most common and cost-effective option for everyday vehicles. It is widely used for Door To Door Car Shipping, State To State Car Shipping, and long-distance moves such as Coast To Coast Car Shipping. Because open carriers transport multiple vehicles at once, this method offers faster availability and lower pricing.
-
Enclosed Car Shipping For high-value vehicles, Enclosed Car Shipping provides maximum protection. Cars are transported inside a covered trailer, making this option ideal for Classic Car Shipping, Luxury & Exotic Car Shipping, and vehicles traveling to Auto Shows Shipping. Enclosed transport helps protect against weather, road debris, and external exposure.
-
Which One Is Right for You? Choosing the right shipping method depends on the type of vehicle, distance, and level of protection needed. Regardless of the option you select, Tiger Auto Transport works exclusively with licensed and insured carriers to ensure safe and reliable delivery.
