Frequently Asked Questions

Get expert answers to common questions about international vehicle export & car shipping services

International car shipping costs typically range from $1,000 to $5,000 depending on the destination, vehicle size, and shipping method. Container shipping (20' or 40' containers) generally costs more but offers better protection, while RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping is more economical. Factors affecting cost include distance, vehicle dimensions, fuel prices, port fees, and customs duties. We provide free quotes with transparent pricing that includes ocean freight, documentation, and basic handling. Contact us for an accurate estimate based on your specific vehicle and destination.

Required documents for international car export include: original vehicle title or certificate of ownership, bill of sale, valid government-issued ID or passport, completed export declaration, shipper's letter of instruction, and destination country's import permit (if applicable). Additional documents may include emissions compliance certificate, safety inspection certificate, and customs declaration forms. We assist with all documentation preparation and ensure compliance with both U.S. export regulations and destination country import requirements to avoid delays.

International car shipping typically takes 2-8 weeks depending on the destination. Shipping to Europe takes 2-3 weeks, to Africa 3-5 weeks, to Asia 3-6 weeks, to Australia 4-8 weeks, and to South America 2-4 weeks. Transit time includes inland transport to the port (3-7 days), ocean freight (1-6 weeks), customs clearance (1-5 days), and final delivery (2-5 days). We provide real-time tracking and updates throughout the shipping process so you always know your vehicle's location.

Yes! You can ship multiple vehicles in a single container to save costs. A 20-foot container typically fits 1-2 small cars, a 40-foot High Cube container fits 2-4 vehicles, and a 45-foot High Cube container can accommodate up to 6 compact cars or 3-4 SUVs depending on their dimensions. This shared container option significantly reduces per-vehicle shipping costs. We expertly load and secure all vehicles to prevent movement during transit. This is ideal for car dealers, families relocating, or anyone shipping multiple vehicles to the same destination.

Marine cargo insurance is available and highly recommended for international vehicle shipping. While carriers maintain basic liability coverage, it typically doesn't cover the full vehicle value. We offer comprehensive marine insurance that covers total loss, damage, theft, and general average at competitive rates (usually 1.5-3% of vehicle value). Insurance coverage begins when the vehicle leaves the origin and continues until delivery at the destination. All claims are processed quickly with our insurance partners. We provide detailed guidance on coverage options and can include insurance in your shipping quote.

Container shipping involves loading your vehicle inside a secure shipping container (20', 40', or 45'), offering maximum protection from weather, theft, and damage. It's ideal for luxury cars, classic vehicles, or when shipping personal items with the vehicle. RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping means your vehicle is driven onto the vessel and secured on the car deck, similar to a ferry. RoRo is more economical and faster for standard vehicles in good running condition. Container shipping costs 20-50% more but provides enclosed protection, while RoRo is exposed to salt air and weather. We help you choose the best method based on your vehicle type, budget, and timeline.

Yes, we provide complete door-to-door international car shipping service. Our service includes vehicle pickup from your home, business, or specified location in the U.S., transport to the departure port, ocean freight, customs clearance, and final delivery to your specified address at the destination country. This full-service option eliminates the hassle of coordinating multiple carriers and ensures your vehicle is handled by professionals from start to finish. Door-to-door service typically adds 3-7 days to transit time but provides maximum convenience. We also offer port-to-port service if you prefer to handle inland transport yourself.

Yes, we can ship non-running vehicles internationally. For container shipping, non-running cars can be loaded using a winch or forklift at no extra charge. For RoRo shipping, non-running vehicles require special loading equipment and typically incur additional fees of $150-$500 depending on the port and vehicle weight. The vehicle must have working steering and brakes for safety during loading. We recommend container shipping for high-value non-running vehicles for better protection. Please inform us in advance if your vehicle is inoperable so we can make proper arrangements and provide accurate pricing.
