The protocol

Eight standards. No exceptions.

Standard car transport does not protect a million-euro vehicle. The protocol below is what we run — every car, every route — and what we require of any partner we charter when capacity demands it.

I

Enclosed, Climate-Controlled Trailers

Our specialist carrier network uses fully enclosed transporters to shield paintwork, chrome and leather from road debris, weather and prying eyes. Climate regulation helps prevent moisture buildup on long European routes.

II

Hydraulic Low-Loading

Hydraulic tail-lifts and ultra-low ramps load each car at a near-flat angle. No bumper scrape, no stress on delicate suspension — essential for low-clearance and modern hypercars alike.

III

Soft-Tie Securement

Foam-padded over-the-wheel straps cradle each tyre. No metal-to-surface contact, no load transferred into vintage axles or historic chassis members.

IV

Digital Condition Protocol

Multi-angle high-resolution photography under controlled lighting, a joint walk-through with the consignor, and a signed Bill of Lading capturing every existing mark before the doors close.

V

Agreed-Value Cargo Insurance

Specialist marine-cargo cover written against documented Agreed Value or provenance — not generic market caps. Suitable for one-off coachwork and concours-condition vehicles.

VI

Unmarked Fleet & Live Tracking

Unbranded trucks, GPS telemetry, geofenced alarms and discreet routing. Two-driver relay on long European runs so the cabin is never unattended.

VII

Customs & Carnet Handling

Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Norway, Liechtenstein — our brokers prepare Carnets de Passage and customs declarations ahead of the route to avoid border delays.

VIII

White-Glove Handover

Delivery direct to your residence, collection or chosen storage. Wheeled off the lift, inspected jointly, and signed over by a uniformed technician — never left at a kerbside.

How it runs

    Pre-load inspection

    Digital condition report co-signed at origin. Soft-tie securement and climate set per car.

  3. 03

    In transit

    Unmarked enclosed transport. Real-time tracking shared with the client; relay drivers, no overnight stops in open lots.

  4. 04

    Handover

    Joint walk-through at destination. Bill of Lading closed, keys and documentation transferred personally.
