Number 1 Auto Transport Expands Enclosed Transport Services for High-Value Vehicle Owners Nationwide Heading Into 2026

Licensed broker's fully enclosed carrier network protects exotic, luxury, and collector vehicles from weather and road debris across all 50 states, backed by a Price Lock Guarantee
MERRICK, N.Y. - Number 1 Auto Transport, a nationwide, family-owned auto transport company based in Merrick, New York, is highlighting its enclosed transport service as demand grows among owners of exotic, luxury, and collector vehicles seeking maximum protection during shipment. With more than 15 years of experience and over 50,000 vehicles successfully delivered across all 50 states, the company matches high-value shipments with fully enclosed, weather-sealed carriers rather than the open trailers used for standard vehicle shipping.

Number 1 Auto Transport operates as a licensed auto transport broker under MC-796224 and USDOT 2336907, coordinating shipments through a network of FMCSA-compliant carriers rather than operating its own truck fleet. Every driver in that network is vetted for a clean driving record and standing with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration before being matched with a customer's vehicle.

Why Enclosed Transport Matters for High-Value Vehicles

Enclosed transport loads a vehicle into a fully covered trailer, shielding it from rain, snow, road debris, and dust for the duration of the trip - a level of protection open-air carriers cannot offer. Number 1 Auto Transport recommends the service for:

Exotic and Luxury Vehicles - High-performance and premium vehicles with sensitive paint, aerodynamic components, or limited production runs benefit from full enclosure and, where needed, single-vehicle carriers reserved exclusively for one shipment.

Classic and Collector Cars - Vintage vehicles being relocated, sold, or brought to auction are shielded from the wear that open transport and long highway miles can otherwise cause.

Auction Purchases and Dealer Transfers - Number 1 Auto Transport provides both open-air and enclosed pickup and delivery to and from auction houses across the country, supporting collectors and dealerships moving multiple vehicles at once.

Cross-Country and State-to-State Moves - Whether a single relocation or a multi-vehicle move, enclosed transport gives owners a documented, insured chain of custody from pickup to delivery.

Transparent Pricing and Full Insurance Coverage

"Owners of high-value vehicles are trusting us with something that often can't be replaced," said a Number 1 Auto Transport spokesperson. "Our enclosed transport service exists so that trust is backed by the right equipment, the right carrier, and a price that doesn't change after the truck shows up."

Every enclosed transport quote is covered by the company's Price Lock Guarantee, meaning the quoted price is the final price paid, with no deposit charged until a carrier is assigned and the vehicle is loaded. Vehicles remain fully insured from pickup through delivery, with Number 1 Auto Transport partnering only with carriers that maintain comprehensive cargo insurance in line with FMCSA requirements. Customers receive regular updates throughout transit and complete a joint inspection at both pickup and delivery, documented on the bill of lading.

The company's reputation for transparent, guaranteed pricing and responsive communication has helped it earn 5-star ratings on Google, Yelp, and Transport Reviews, along with recognition as an Inc. 5000 honoree.

Looking Ahead to 2026

As Number 1 Auto Transport moves further into 2026, the company continues to expand its enclosed carrier network to keep pace with demand from collectors, dealerships, and relocating vehicle owners across the country. Owners of exotic, luxury, or collector vehicles seeking a fully protected, insured shipping option are encouraged to contact Number 1 Auto Transport directly for a quote.
