How to Move a Car?
The first step to moving your car to Tel Aviv will be to hire a professional automobile transport company that is experienced with international overseas automobile shipping. A-1 Auto Transport has been moving cars internationally for more than 20 years. It has the precise knowledge necessary to have your vehicle shipped safely, efficiently, and with the best shipping rates available for international hauling. When you initially contact an automobile transport agent for a global automobile relocating quote, they will need some information about your car, including the make, model, and year. Also, if you have had any modifications done to the vehicle that would affect the size or weight, the agent will need to know that as well. When a carrier is dispatched to pick a car up for delivery to the shipping port, the correct carrier must be used, and if a vehicle has been modified, it can affect the type of carrier needed to move it. The agent will get your driver’s license and social security number and will need you to sign a power of attorney form to permit for your car to be transported when you are not with it. The agent will discuss the contract with you and explain how you can transport a vehicle overseas.
Ways to Shipment to Tel Aviv.
You can ship a car from the United States to Tel Aviv in three ways. Those ways include:

- Ro-Ro Shipping- Ro-Ro is how most motor vehicles are transported overseas from the U.S. to Tel Aviv. It’s a simple form of transport where cars are rolled onto the ship at the port in the U.S. and then rolled off the boat at the port in Tel Aviv. When you ship with Ro-Ro, you must ensure the car is cleaned out and has nothing left inside before shipping out. You will also want to make sure that anything on the outside of the car that can fall off is removed as well.
- Container Shipping- Shipping a motor vehicle in a shipping container is a great way to go when you are relocating and may need to load other items inside of the car, or pack them into a shipping container so you can move an entire home at once. You will have to pay a fee for the container and the usual moving costs, but you can move your belongings much easier when using a container.
- Air Cargo Shipping- Most vehicle owners opt to use a sea route as air travel can be expensive. It is typically used for costly automobiles and personal belongings that must be delivered very quickly.
