Enclosed Car Transport
When your vehicle is more than just a mode of transport—whether it's a luxury car, race-prepped machine, classic showpiece, or custom build—standard shipping can expose it to the elements, debris, and public roads. That's where enclosed car transport offers peace of mind:
Your vehicle travels in a fully enclosed trailer, sheltered from weather, dust, debris, and prying eyes.
Comes with higher insurance coverage, specialised handling, and professional tie-downs.
The ultimate transport method for preserving paintwork, interior condition, and overall value.
At Bodyshop Manchester, our enclosed vehicle shipping service is trusted by car enthusiasts, private clients, dealerships, and collectors across Manchester, the North West, and throughout the UK.

Fully enclosed trailers shield your vehicle from all external elements and road debris

Why Choose Our Enclosed Car Shipping Service?
Maximum Protection
Our enclosed trailers are closed-top, rear-loading units equipped with soft-rubber wheel cradles and adjustable straps to prevent scratching or movement. These systems are perfect for exotic, classic, or performance cars where minor damage is unacceptable.
Privacy & Confidentiality
When shipping a high-value or concept vehicle, enclosed car shipping also keeps it hidden during transit—ideal for new model releases, VIP movements, or collectors protecting their privacy.
Temperature Control & Security
Our trailers offer temperature regulation and enhanced security systems including lockable doors, GPS tracking, and CCTV monitoring for full coverage from pick-up to delivery.
