About Samara and Local Travel
Samara is located in the southeastern part of Russia. It is the 6th largest city in the country and home of very important social, economic, political, cultural, and industrial centers. Many come here for employment and residency.
The road networks are well maintained and paved. There is public transportation in Samara, but the language and currency barriers may pose a problem for anyone coming to the city from the U.S. Having your own vehicle to travel freely will be nice, especially while traveling the country for its forest, cultural centers, shopping, historical monuments, and more.
Methods of Vehicle Shipment to Samara
- Shipping a vehicle RO/RO means that the vehicle will be empty at the time of its shipment. Only a car jack, a spare tire, and floor mats are allowed. The vehicle will then roll on to the ship and when it ports, it will roll off of the ship.
- Container shipping requires that the vehicle is put into a very large shipping container. The container can fit other belongings as well. The vehicle can also be filled with possessions allowed by Russian Customs. If a single container is more space than you may need, it can be shared with another individual which will also help to lessen the cost.
- Air shipping is the third option. This method would be great except it is very costly. Many people cannot afford to transport their vehicle air services.
Make sure that you are present at the right port on the day the vehicle is due to arrive. They will not hold the vehicle for you. Sometimes, an agent may pick the vehicle up for you but this will have to be addressed with Customs.
