OPEN car shipping

An open trailer is a safe and reliable option and the most common type of transport used for California car shipping near you. With open transport, cars can easily be arranged and quickly loaded and unloaded, making this option efficient and cost-effective. Vehicles are not protected from weather and road conditions and may accumulate a bit of dirt during their journey, which is to be expected.

Book OPEN Auto Transport

ENCLOSED car shipping

Enclosed transport is best for classic, exotic or luxury cars as well as motorcycles and powersports. Vehicles with low ground clearance will also require enclosed shipping, as the driver may need a hydraulic lift gate or ramp to load them onto the truck. Enclosed transport protects your vehicle from most weather and road hazards, offering additional peace of mind when shipping your prized possession.

The cost to ship a car to Hawaii is calculated somewhat differently than the cost to ship a car across the country, you’ll probably need ground transport in addition to sea transport. But here’s the good news! When you work with an auto transport management company like Montway, the process of scheduling your shipment will be quick and easy.

Ship a car to/from California to Hawaii

Top 4 things to consider when transporting a car to or from Illinois

  • If your car is being transported to or from Illinois, make sure you’re aware of any toll roads the trucker might encounter on their route. If you have an I-PASS or E-ZPass, remember to remove it from your vehicle to avoid unnecessary fees.
  • Illinois experiences a wide range of weather conditions. During winter, expect snow, ice and freezing cold temperatures. Extreme weather can affect everything from driving conditions to shipping routes.
  • Illinois requires emissions testing for most vehicles. If you’re shipping a vehicle to Illinois, you’ll want to make sure it passes the testing requirements, especially for registration purposes.
  • For drivers permanently moving to Illinois, you’ll want to update your insurance policy to meet state requirements. Register your vehicle with the Illinois Secretary of State’s office within 30 days of establishing residency to avoid penalties.

Illinois car shipping FAQs

Is my car insured while transporting it to or from Illinois? Toggle
Yes, your vehicle will be covered by the carrier’s cargo insurance. Additionally, we have our own contingent cargo insurance which protects you for up to $250,000 should the trucker’s policy fail to fully cover a valid claim.
With Montway you can have one piece of luggage in the trunk free of charge. This could be a box, suitcase, or bag, weighing no more than 100 lbs.
We suggest the car is clean so that any existing damage is fully visible. Remove any personal items, especially anything of value. Also remove automatic toll devices and disable any kind of security system which could give the trucker trouble when loading or unloading the vehicle. Finally, leave a quarter tank of gas in the vehicle to be sure there is enough for loading and unloading.
Montway ships all standard types of vehicles such as coupes, sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, minivans, and regular cargo and passenger vans. We can even arrange transport for EVs, motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, golf carts, snowmobiles and other vehicle types.
A simple way to save money is by opting for open auto transport rather than enclosed. You can also save money by keeping your pickup date flexible, meeting your truck driver near a main route and avoiding seasonal demand.
With Montway’s door-to-door service, you can have your car picked up anywhere in the U.S. and dropped off at your home address in Illinois. Keep in mind that local streets may need to accommodate a car carrier trailer that can be up to 80 feet in length and weigh 80 tons. Your driver will work with you to find a safe meeting place near your home if your location isn’t legally or physically accessible.
Yes! Even if your car, truck, van or other vehicle is inoperable, we are still able to transport it. Be sure to indicate this when booking your shipment, since specialized equipment will need to be used to load and unload it on and off the truck. If your inoperable vehicle is not able to roll, break and steer it will require added equipment and work, which will be an additional expense.
