Port of Buffalo Car Shipping Company, NY

Shipping Cars To Or From the Port Of Buffalo, New York

The Port of Buffalo is located on the northeastern shores of Lake Erie in western New York. It sits on the mouth of Niagara River and is the 7th busiest port of the Great Lakes Waterway. The pier is owned and managed by the Gateway Metroport. It is the first dock of call for vessels entering the Great Lakes. Its location makes it a good distribution point for Midwestern and Canadian markets. It is equipped with heavy lift equipment and storage facilities that facilitate moving all types of cargo.

Pricing & Time For Shipments

*Prices and times are estimated. They can vary depending on the season and what type of vehicle you are moving.

Moving Through

The port’s public-use terminals have a dock area of about 1,000 square meters and are served by both road and rail. Movers ship to or from the terminals by road. Vessels carrying cars can self-unload or use the crawler crane, which has a 320-ton capacity, or the gantry crane, which has a 55-ton capacity. The harbor offers several services, including importation. For more information on this service, contact the authority on the number provided on this page.

We move from (or to) Buffalo City, western New York, and the midwestern US states through this dockyard. The auto cargo vessels access it from the Atlantic Ocean through the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. Then they sail on the Saint Lawrence River to Lake Ontario and on to Buffalo through the Niagara River. This route is convenient when hauling to or from Europe and other countries and continents bordering the Atlantic Ocean.

Moving

When it comes to international hauling, the Seaport position is critical. If the overseas location is in the Pacific Rim, Buffalo's dock is not a convenient harbor for entry or exit. The vessel might have to take a long route to Buffalo, unnecessarily delaying the shipment. In such situations, we move through the West Coast, such as the Port of Vancouver, Washington, or the ports of Oakland and Los Angeles, California.

The Cost

The cost of moving is dependent on many factors. Our affordable rates are dependent on;

• Distance. In the case of the international method, we consider three distances. To help you understand the costs, we will assume you are moving from the US to an overseas destination. The first is the distance between the current location. Then, the distance the cargo vessel will cover is between the Port of Buffalo and the entry at the destination country. Then, the distance to the final destination.
• Size of the car. The larger the vehicle, the higher the fee.
• Customs duty. If you cannot clear it through customs, we make arrangements with customs brokers and add the cost to the total price.
• Services provided. Services such as door-to-door, enclosed options over land, and satellite tracking increase costs.
