Port of Ashtabula Car Shipping Company, OH

Shipping Cars To Or From Port Of Ashtabula

The Port of Ashtabula, in Ashtabula County, Ohio, lies on the southern shore of Lake Erie. It is part of the Great Lakes – Saint Lawrence Seaway.

In the 20th century, the port was the third largest iron ore port in the world.

Port Of Ashtabula Auto Transport Pricing & Time To Ship Your Car Examples

*Prices and times are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and what type of vehicle you are shipping.

Domestic auto shipping

Domestic shipping of cars to or from port of Ashtabula is possible as the harbor is easily accessible via road and railroad. The Interstate 90 (I-90) highway that runs east/west is only 5 miles from the port. The north/south highway close to the harbor is the State Route 11. We, A-1 Auto Transport, ship cars to locations in all 50 states of the US. In the Ashtabula Harbor and surrounding areas, we do door-to-door and terminal-to-door delivery of cars as we do not have a terminal in the Ashtabula City.

International car shipping

Being part of a major seaway connected to the Atlantic Ocean, one can imagine the possibilities of international shipping of cars to or from the port of Ashtabula. Unfortunately, the harbor does not have the facilities or equipment to handle auto shipping. The docks at the harbor, most of which are operated by Kinder Morgan/Pinney Dock & Transport, handle self-unloading vessels. Ships used for auto transport are container ships and RORO vessels – neither of these two types of ship self-unload.

Individuals and car dealers in Ashtabula have to use other ports for international shipping. The port you choose has to be geographically convenient to you. Also, your overseas destination should help you determine a suitable port. When shipping to or from countries in the Pacific Rim, we recommend using the ports on the western coast. Such are the ports of Vancouver, Los Angeles, Portland, and Seattle. When shipping to countries with access to the Atlantic Ocean, east coast ports such as Philadelphia, Boston, and New York are convenient.

Boat shipping to and from Ashtabula Harbor
