Is shipping cars possible?
Like most inland ports along the Mississippi River System, Vicksburg is not a deep-draft port. As such, it can only dock small ships and barges. RORO vessels and container ships involved in auto transport cannot navigate to the port. The cargo would have to be transferred to barges before reaching the port. But, auto shippers prefer transferring the cargo to car shipping trucks instead of barges.
What are the international car shipping options?
It is not possible to ship cars to overseas destinations through the port of Vicksburg. Therefore, auto transporters use the nearby seaports to serve their Vicksburg customers. They may use the Port of New Orleans, Port of Pascagoula, and Port of Gulfport. Of these three ports, the Port of New Orleans is often the best alternative. It is one of the busiest ports in the country and has contemporary auto cargo handling facilities including a RORO dock and ramp.
Is it possible to import a car?
One of the reasons people search for the services of shipping cars to or from Port of Vicksburg, Mississippi is vehicle importation. It is always convenient to import a vehicle through a port near your place of work or residence. The Port of Vicksburg is a US Customs and Border protection designated point of entry. Therefore, there are customs inspectors at the port that can clear imported vehicles.
The challenge is that few shippers will directly ship to this port, yet the US CBP requires a vehicle to be cleared at the first port of entry. The workaround of this condition is to hire a freight forwarder. They will make the necessary arrangements to have the vehicle cleared at the port of Vicksburg.
