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 South Carolina

  • If you’re shipping a newly purchased car into South Carolina, remember it must be registered within 45 days of the sale date.
  • Moving permanently? You’ll need to obtain a South Carolina driver’s license and transfer your vehicle’s title and registration.
  • South Carolina law requires liability and uninsured motorist coverage to operate a vehicle legally. Check with your provider to make sure you’re covered.
  • Interstate 185, also known as the Southern Connector, is South Carolina’s only toll road. If shipping your vehicle out of the state, remove your toll responder to avoid unwanted charges during transport.
  • New residents can find resources on education, taxes, family services, hunting and fishing, and more on the official state website to help make the transition easier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my car insured while transporting it to or from South Carolina?

Yes, your vehicle will be covered by the carrier’s cargo insurance. Additionally, Aegis Auto Transport provides contingent cargo insurance, protecting you for up to $250,000 should the trucker’s policy fail to fully cover a valid claim.

Yes! With our door-to-door service, your car can be picked up anywhere in the U.S. and delivered to your home in South Carolina. Keep in mind that local streets must be large enough to accommodate a car carrier trailer (up to 80 feet long and weighing 80,000 lbs). If your location isn’t accessible, your driver will arrange a safe nearby meeting point.

The most cost-effective option is open auto transport instead of enclosed. You can also save by keeping your pickup date flexible, meeting your driver near a major route, and avoiding peak seasonal demand.

We recommend washing your vehicle so any existing damage is clearly visible. Remove all personal items, automatic toll devices, and disable alarm systems. Leave about a quarter tank of gas—enough for loading and unloading but not so much that it adds extra weight.

We ship all standard vehicles including sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, minivans, and cargo vans. We also arrange transport for EVs, motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, golf carts, snowmobiles, and collector or specialty vehicles.

Yes, you may place one piece of luggage in the trunk free of charge. This could be a suitcase, box, or bag weighing up to 100 lbs.
