There are a few basic options for international auto transport. The first option is an ocean container, which can be delivered to our home or office by the shipping company and you will be able to load the vehicle on your own. So, you will be able to ship personal items with your international shipment.

Keep in mind that loading the vehicle into the container is not an easy job for someone who has never done this before. So, leave it to the professionals—the auto transporters will take on that task for you by taking the vehicle to the auto transporter’s warehouse.

In the event of an accident or damage to your car, you be able to collect loss damage insurance ONLY if the car has been packed by a professional auto shipper. The ocean container does not have any platforms, lift gates, or ramps. It will sit on a chassis, which is about four feet above the ground.  So, the vehicle has to be tightly secured, blocked, and locked inside the container.

If your car is being shipped by RO/RO service, your car must be empty.  However, if your vehicle is shipped in a personal 20' or 40' container, you may put boxes of household items in the vehicle and the trunk of the vehicle.
