As your vehicle will be shipped to the Port de Djibouti, it is important for the owner to be present there. If you cannot be there, ensure that you give a signed Power of Attorney to the shipping agent so they can complete the required procedures.
It is important to get the shipping quote from A1 Auto Transport service and this will depend upon different variables, including the make, model and type of vehicle. Additionally, the method of shipping is considered one of the key aspects when costing the shipping. You will need to pick from RORO and Container shipping so A1 Auto Transport Company can offer a written quote.
In RORO, the car is driven on the ship at the U.S port and driven off at the Djibouti port. It is the cheapest method of transporting the vehicle but it comes with some limitations. These include cleaning the car completely, leaving 1/4th tank of fuel, but removing all personal belongings and air conditioning gas. While in container shipping, your vehicle and personal belongings are packed within 20 feet or 40 feet containers, as per requirement. This is more expensive but safer.
