Vehicle Transportation Methods

If you choose container shipping, you will be able to ship your personal items with your vehicle at the same time. There will be safety checks and certain procedures that will need to be followed. This method of shipping is best for vintage vehicles or luxury vehicles that need to be protected in route. The containers come in two sizes; 20 foot or 40 foot.

Roll On/ Roll Off shipping is the most affordable method of shipping which involves your vehicle being driven onto the deck of the ship and fastened down for the trip. Once it reaches the port, it will then be unfastened and driven off of the deck of the ship. No personal items will be allowed inside the vehicle during transport.
