Open transport moves vehicles on an exposed, multi-car carrier rather than inside an enclosed trailer. It is a practical option for many standard cars, trucks, SUVs, and non-running vehicles because one carrier can transport multiple vehicles along a route. Direct Connect Auto Transport coordinates carrier assignment, pickup and delivery scheduling, tracking, and damage-free guarantee protection.
