Your car is placed inside a covered trailer when you use enclosed car transport. protected from the elements, dust, and road debris. With specialized equipment for cautious loading and fastening. The majority of enclosed trailers can accommodate one to six cars, giving room for wide tires, low lips, and custom bodywork. It's the go-to option for luxury builds, exotics, classic cars, recently restored cars, and vehicles with extremely low ground clearance.

Step 2
We dispatch an enclosed specialist
An insured, licensed enclosed carrier is assigned by Wimple to run your lane. For the safe loading of low-clearance, luxury, vintage, or custom vehicles, your driver arranges access and shows up with the appropriate equipment, such as liftgates or extended ramps and soft straps or wheel nets. The driver provides ETA updates while in transit and fills out a Bill of Lading (BOL) at pickup with photo documentation.
Step 3
Receive your vehicle. That's it!
After carefully unloading, your driver goes over the condition with you and completes the BOL. Before signing, make a note of any problems. Vehicles frequently arrive presentation-ready because the trailer protects against weather and road debris. Pay the remaining amount, retain your documents and pictures, and take pleasure in a seamless, nationwide delivery experience.
