Car Shipping Villa Nueva

Villa Nueva is a scenically beautiful small city near Guatemala City in Guatemala.

Temperatures are usually in the mid 70’s year round, and there are several parks and shopping centers to enjoy in the town. While the roadways are not all paved, having a personal car to drive is very beneficial as public transportation is very limited and robberies have been known to happen on the small city buses. Renting a car while in Villa Nueva can be difficult as there are no rental agencies in the city and driving in from surrounding areas can be very costly with the expense of rental fees as well as insurance. The best times of the year to import a car are in the months of November through February as there is often heavier rainfall during the rest of the year. Rainfall can cause flooding on the dirt roadways and can make vehicle travel difficult in and out of the city.
