As a trucker myself, I see these guys all the time and by the looks of what I see them doing while in truck stops(checking all the vehicles to make sure everything is secure, checking/double checking to make sure no damage has occured in transit, re-tightening securement straps to make sure load doesn't shift) I would say I like the way that these guys operate.

http://www.reliablecarcarrier.com/

as well as this company,,
http://www.waggonerstrucking.com/Home%20Page/Index.html

Both companies, from what I have seen on the road, offer both fully enclosed van type carriers as well as open air carriers.
