Types of Transport to Regina.

Shipping a motor vehicle to Regina can be easily done with either open or enclosed transport resources. The following are ways to ship to the city:

Open Transport- An open transport carrier is the primary way that motor vehicles are shipped from the United States to Regina, Canada. Open carrier trucks as well as open shipping sources like roll/on roll/off, or RoRo ships, can easily load many automobiles for shipment at the same time. When shipping a car on an open carrier, it is important to make sure the car has been emptied of any personal content and paperwork as many people can be near the car and items left inside can become a dangerous risk if they should happen to dislodge and fly around inside of the car during transport.

Enclosed Transport- Enclosed shipping gives added support and safety for cars like classic or luxury styles during shipment. When vehicles are stored within a carrier they are safe from theft and are shielded from the elements and debris that could otherwise cause harm. Personal effects can be delivered along with the car in enclosed transport streamlining the process of moving.

Air Cargo- Shipping a car by air can be expensive but it is the fastest way to ship a car to Regina. Air shipment is usually ideal for highly valuable automobiles and personal items. Most automobiles are shipped with either open or enclosed transport.
