There are quite a lot of different reasons for which you might want to consider moving to Beira in Mozambique. Usually, it’s professional or personal reasons but regardless of it, you can definitely benefit from having your car transported with you. The ports are allowing importation. However, certain ones might not be accepting RO/RO shipping so you need to make sure that you check this in advance or find the closest port which accepts the selected shipping method. You should also be present on the day of the arrival in order to pick up your vehicle – the port is not going to hold it for you.

Cost of Shipping

The majority of the prices are going to range between $3300 and $6400 when it comes to shipping from U.S. to Mozambique. Of course, larger vehicles such as SUVs or trucks are likely to cost a bit more.

With quite a lot of different ports in the country, shipping your car using Roll-on/Roll-off might be rather convenient. Therefore, depending on your requirements and on your budget, you might be able to pick any of the two regular methods. The basic difference is that when you use RORO your car is shipped on an open deck and it is hence exposed to the elements. Containers are available in sizes of 20 feet or 40 feet and you can choose the size that you want. On the other hand, if you choose container shipping, your car is going to be safely stored within a container of a size of your choosing.

Furthermore, when you ship with RORO you need to make sure that the car is free of any personal belongings and that you leave only ¼ gas tank full. There are no such requirements if you choose to get your own container – you can fill it with as many belongings as you want. This is definitely something to be considered.
