Enclosed Corvette Transport from Wilmington to Rapid City

A1 Auto Transport was contacted to ship a 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 from Wilmington, Delaware to Rapid City, South Dakota. The customer, a private collector relocating to the Midwest, required fully enclosed transport to preserve the condition of this high-value vehicle. Given the cross-country nature of the shipment and the Corvette's low ground clearance, our enclosed carrier network was the optimal choice.

Challenge

The main challenge was timing and protection. The customer had a tight relocation window of under 5 days, and the Corvette demanded careful handling due to its performance specs and aftermarket modifications. Additionally, the delivery destination was located near the Black Hills region, where weather conditions could change rapidly — especially during fall.

Solution

A1 Auto Transport dispatched a 2-vehicle enclosed carrier with hydraulic lift gates for low-profile sports cars. The unit was fully GPS-tracked, and the customer received daily updates throughout the 1,672-mile journey. Our driver coordinated with the client 24 hours prior to arrival and successfully navigated residential roads in Rapid City for curbside delivery. The entire process — from pickup to drop-off — was completed in just 4 days, meeting the customer’s deadline without compromise to safety or quality.
