Choose Your Transport Method: Open vs. Enclosed
Shipping to New Mexico often involves dealing with high temperatures and long highway miles. Learn more about your options in our guide to Cross-Country Auto Transport.
Open Carrier Transport
This is the most common method for shipping to New Mexico. Your vehicle is secured on an open trailer. It is cost-effective and safe, though your car will be exposed to the elements during the drive across the country.
Enclosed Carrier Transport
For high-value vehicles or if you want to avoid road dust and intense sun, enclosed transport is the best option. It provides complete protection from the unpredictable weather often found in the Midwest and Southwest.
