When shipping a vehicle to places like Donetsk, Ukraine, you may have a few choices. You could air ship your vehicle or you can choose to roll on/roll off your vehicle onto a cargo ship, or you can choose container shipping instead. These are the three most popular choices in vehicle shipping. The most expensive of the three would be air shipping so this method is used the least. If you choose roll on, roll off shipping, this is probably the least expensive way to get your vehicle to Ukraine. In order to use the RO/RO method, your vehicle would need to be completely empty of any items, except for items such as the spare tire, floor mats, and car jack.

If you choose to ship your vehicle using container shipping, you will be able to place other personal belongings in with the vehicle as well. The large container will hold your vehicle as well as other items and it is allowed by Ukrainian customs. You can choose from two different sized containers. If you choose a large container, you can even share with someone else so you can decrease the amount it will cost you to ship your vehicle over.
