Enclosed or open transport: which one should I choose?

Enclosed protects from weather, road debris and prying eyes: it is the standard for a valuable, rare or fragile car. Open transport remains relevant for an everyday vehicle, on routes where exposure is not a concern. In doubt, describe the car — we will tell you frankly whether enclosed is justified.

How much does enclosed car transport cost?

The price depends on distance, vehicle value, convoy exclusivity — alone in the trailer or in enclosed groupage — and the level of insurance. We don't run flat rates: configure your request through our online quote and you receive a firm proposal within 24 hours.

How is my vehicle taken into care?

A full inspection and condition photos at departure, tie-downs matched to your model — soft straps, custom chocking, low ramps —, enclosed transport with a single point of contact keeping you informed, then hand-to-hand delivery on arrival, condition checked together against the departure photos.

How much is my vehicle insured for during transport?

Every transport runs under CMR conditions with additional cover up to €850,000 per vehicle and €1,350,000 per transport, valid from loading to unloading and confirmed in writing before departure. Any particular risk — carbon or aluminium bodywork, lowered vehicle, width above 1.95 m — is declared before the mission.

Can I follow my vehicle during the journey?

Your single point of contact, reachable throughout the mission, keeps you informed at every step — pick-up, journey, delivery. Real-time tracking on a map will arrive with our app, currently in development.

Which vehicles do you transport enclosed?

Supercars, GTs, sports cars, classic and collector cars, prototypes and prestige saloons. Unsure about your model? Just ask.

Do you also transport motorcycles?

Yes, in enclosed transport too — from collection to competition — with a dedicated tie-down inside the same rigid box, and the same care and discretion.

Do you operate outside Belgium?

Yes, across all of Europe, door to door — and Belgium doesn't need to be on the route. We collect and deliver from one point of the continent to another: France to Norway as readily as Paris to Monaco. Beyond Europe, every request is studied.

How far in advance should I book an enclosed transport?

A few days are usually enough for a domestic route; count two to three weeks for an international transport or an event deadline. Urgent requests often remain possible: the fleet and crews are our own, so we re-plan without depending on third parties.

How should I prepare a classic car before transport?

Low fuel level, alarm disabled, personal belongings removed, particularities flagged — ground clearance, starting procedure, tie-down points. We handle the rest, winch loading included if the car doesn't run.

Enclosed car transport for luxury and classic cars

Anywhere in Europe, your car travels in complete confidentiality, sheltered from prying eyes and from the weather. Exceptional transport, run by our own specialist crews.

What we protect against

Out on the road, a car carried in the open is exposed to flying debris, to the weather… and to prying eyes.

Enclosed transport removes those risks. From loading to delivery, your car travels in a fully protected environment, out of reach of anything outside and in complete discretion. Above a certain value, enclosed isn't a comfort — it's common sense.

Entrusting the car that matters to you should never be a gamble. Not on the road, and not on the people driving it.

That's why at e-motion every step is held by our own crews. Discretion and care are not obtained any other way.

Your enclosed transport options

Build your transport

Exclusive convoy

Your car travels alone in the trailer — no other load, no intermediate stops. Departure and delivery set to your schedule, on a direct route.

Enclosed groupage

Several cars share the same enclosed rig — up to eight on our largest — with no compromise on protection. The right balance for a transport planned ahead of time.

Express transport 24/7

An emergency can't wait. Our crews can be called out 24/7 to arrange a pick-up within hours when possible, and a fast delivery anywhere in Europe.

Open transport

For an everyday vehicle, on journeys where exposure isn't the issue, the open truck still makes sense: the handling protocol doesn't change, only the protection along the way.

Reinforced insurance

Named ceilings

CMR conditions with additional cover up to €850,000 per vehicle and €1,350,000 per transport, valid from loading to unloading — confirmed in writing before departure.

To declare

Any specific risk — carbon or aluminium bodywork, lowered vehicle, width above 1.95 m — is flagged before the mission.

Car transport insurance

Base CMR compensates by the vehicle's weight, not its value. What “insurance included” really means, laid out in our article.

Anywhere in Europe, door to door

Car transport across Europe

We handle pick-up and delivery anywhere in Europe, even when Belgium isn't part of the route. From Paris to Geneva, from Milan to Monaco, we connect the major European destinations in a matter of days.

A single point of contact

Reachable from loading to unloading, keeping you informed at every step: pick-up, key waypoints, delivery.

The e-motion app

In development: order your transport, follow the vehicle on a map and talk to the team from a single app. Coming soon.

A fleet that belongs to us. Drivers who stand for us. Your car is handled by our own crews, from loading through to delivery.

Benchmark enclosed rigs. Rolfo, Lohr and Kässbohrer meet the highest standards for moving exceptional vehicles: prestige, classic, competition, supercars and prototypes.

From a single-car bed to eight-car rigs. Some fifteen carriers, tractors and trailers. One car in an exclusive convoy or several in enclosed groupage: the fleet adapts to your request.

Maintained in our own workshops. Mercedes-Benz Actros and Atego, MAN TGX, Iveco: every truck is closely monitored to guarantee reliability, safety and availability on all our European journeys.

Tie-downs designed for every model. Low ramps, winch, soft straps and custom chocking. Ground clearance, width, carbon bodywork: the handover adapts to your car, without compromise.

From request to delivery, step by step

A single point of contact from first call to key handover, with every step validated before moving to the next.

The request, through the online quote

Describe the car, where it leaves from and where it goes through our online quote. A dedicated planner confirms feasibility, frames the access and dimension constraints, and comes back to you with a firm proposal within 24 hours.

Taking the car into our care

Before departure: a full inspection, condition photos and tie-downs designed for your model — soft straps, custom chocking, low ramps matched to the ground clearance. Nothing leaves the ground without your agreement.

The enclosed convoy, a single point of contact

Your car travels inside an enclosed truck, invisible from the outside. A single point of contact, reachable from loading to unloading, keeps you informed at every step of the journey.

Hand-to-hand delivery

Unloaded under cover at the address of your choice and handed over in person. We check the car's condition together on arrival and compare it against the departure photos: it arrives exactly as it left.
