Open Car Transport

Open auto transport involves shipping your vehicle on an open-air trailer without walls or a roof. Your car is securely fastened with straps and transported from the pickup location to the delivery point. This is the most commonly used method due to its wide availability and lower cost compared to enclosed transport. It's an efficient option for most standard vehicles. However, because the vehicle is exposed to the elements and road debris, it may arrive with dust or minor surface dirt.

Enclosed Car Transport

Enclosed auto transport is a premium vehicle shipping service that provides maximum protection during transit. Your car is transported inside a fully enclosed trailer, shielding it from weather, road debris, and other external elements. This method is ideal for luxury, exotic, classic, or collector vehicles that require extra care. Enclosed trailers often feature soft straps and hydraulic lift gates, making them perfect for cars with low ground clearance. While this option offers superior protection, it comes at a higher cost than open transport and may have limited availability due to fewer enclosed carriers in the market.

5 Things to Consider When Transporting a Car to or from Rhode Island

  • If you’re new to Rhode Island, check statewide maps to navigate traffic flows, bike paths, parks, and other important areas.
  • Rhode Island has specific processes for license plates and vehicle registration for active-duty military personnel and veterans.
  • Be aware of tolls, such as the Newport Pell Bridge. Remove your E-ZPass or other toll transponders before shipping to avoid extra fees.

  • Rhode Island law mandates minimum car insurance coverage. Confirm with your provider that your policy meets the state’s requirements before transporting your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my car insured while transporting it to or from Rhode Island?

Yes, your vehicle is covered by the carrier’s cargo insurance. Additionally, Aegis Auto Transport provides contingent cargo insurance that protects you for up to $250,000 if the carrier’s policy does not fully cover a valid claim.

Opting for open auto transport instead of enclosed can save money. You can also reduce costs by keeping your pickup date flexible, meeting your truck driver near main routes, and avoiding peak seasonal demand. There are additional tips available to help you ship more affordably.

Aegis Auto Transport allows one piece of luggage in the trunk free of charge. This can be a box, suitcase, or bag, weighing no more than 100 lbs.

Book as soon as you know your pickup and delivery dates and locations. Scheduling 2–3 weeks in advance helps ensure your desired timeframe is met. Expedited pickup options are available for an additional cost.

Yes. Aegis Auto Transport’s door-to-door service can pick up your car anywhere in the U.S. and deliver it to your home address in Rhode Island. If local streets cannot accommodate the carrier, the driver will arrange a safe nearby meeting location.

Clean your car so any existing damage is visible. Remove personal items and valuables, disable security systems, and remove toll devices. Leave about a quarter tank of gas to ensure enough fuel for loading and unloading.
