Typical Prices – What's the Cost?

• Eritrea is an area that is not exactly easy for auto transporters to get to, and the cost of moving a car there reflects that.
• You can expect costs from $3,200 to $7,200 when having a car delivered to Eritrea from the U.S.

Cost & Time For Shipments

*Prices and times are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and the type of car.

*Save on ground transport costs by delivering the vehicle to the nearest port.

*Allow an additional 10 days to process the documents.

*Prices are for 1 car in a dedicated 20ft container. This is the safest and most reliable way to haul a vehicle internationally. Other items may be included in the container to help save you money when moving.

*The RoRo (roll on, roll off) method is less expensive, and shipments can be completed in fewer days. Contact us now for a free RoRo quote.

Eritrea, which lies in Eastern Africa, is a small country around the size of Indiana. Getting about it isn't easy compared to the United States. Although the country's public hauling system is convenient, it may be unclear to a visitor. If you plan on staying in Eritrea for a while, you might want to bring your car. While exploring the stunning nation, this could prove invaluable.

There are two methods of exporting a car internationally; both are sufficient ways to do so. RO/RO, or the roll-on-roll-off method, is the cheapest, but container delivery also has its share of benefits.

What are RO/RO and Container Delivery?

Container shipping is more costly than RO/RO, but it allows the vehicle owner to ship other belongings overseas simultaneously. A container can be split with another person, which could help reduce costs. The auto inside the container may also be filled with possessions.

RO/RO consists of rolling the car on and off the ship. The vehicle must be empty before transporting. Only floor mats, a car jack, and a spare tire are allowed inside the car.

Required Documents

When moving a vehicle into Africa, many documents need to be acquired. It is necessary to be prepared with all the essential documentation to import your car.

1. Second-hand autos will need a letter of authority from SABS.
2. You must have a passport.
3. Proof of employment.
4. Proof of residency in Africa.
5. Vehicle registration and title.
6. Proof of study or employment.

The above documentation is mandatory. Having a personal vehicle in the country will allow you to travel leisurely and without hesitation. Be sure that there is somewhere to store the auto at the place of residence safely and that all precautions are taken with roadways and automobile laws.

Hauling Of Heavy Equipment & Oversized Cargo

Moving oversized cargo and heavy equipment from the United States to Eritrea isn’t easy without anything you need. For example, it takes haulers, the right materials and equipment, familiarity with import policies, and much more to successfully carry out international hauling. Luckily, A1 AT can help anyone looking to ship their heavy equipment or oversized cargo to another nation.

Theoretically, any cargo that cannot fit into a 40ft container is considered over-sized. However, if your cargo fits into a container yet exceeds the standard weight limits, it may also be regarded as heavy equipment. Some examples of the heavy and oversized equipment we can have shipped overseas include but are not limited to...

• Tractors, combines & other farm equipment.
• Backhoes and excavators
• RVs and motorhomes
• Industrial equipment
• Bulldozers, dump trucks and forklifts
• Hydraulic equipment
• Oversized engines
• Pile drivers
• Cranes
• Large trucks & heavy vehicles
• Engineering equipment
• Agricultural equipment
• Mining equipment

• It takes an average of 30 days for a car to be delivered to Eritrea by sea freight.

Delivery Options We Have Available

Depending on the type of oversized or heavy cargo you are moving and the route that must be taken to carry out the delivery, several methods are available through A1. Some of these options offer more security than others, raising their cost slightly more. Our professionals can help you to decide, but here’s a little more information regarding our method options first…

• LoLo Shipping or Lift On/Lift Off- We will safely lift your cargo onto the ship using a crane. Once it reaches Eritrea, it will be lifted off the boat with the crane. This service applies primarily to non-op vehicles and crated heavy equipment.
• RoRo method or Roll On/Roll Off- This is the cheapest option available since it is an open-air service that requires your vehicle or equipment to be capable of rolling onto and off the ship using a ramp.
• Container delivery- This method isn’t available for all heavy equipment overseas. If your heavy cargo fits into the container, you can likely request this method. The walls and ceiling of the container provide the ultimate protection during your cargo’s travels, but it does cost more than the alternative methods offered.
• Flat Rack hauling- This method uses what appears to be the frame of a container to assure your cargo’s steadiness during its transport. Contingent to the weather conditions, your cargo may be wrapped and protected by shrink wrap or plastic sheeting.
