Shipping to Buffalo from or to Pacific Rim nations
When it comes to international car shipping the Seaport position is very important. If the overseas location is in the Pacific Rim, port of Buffalo is not a convenient port of entry or exit. The vessel might have to take a long route to get to Buffalo, thereby unnecessarily delaying the shipment. In such situations, we ship through west coast ports such as Port of Vancouver, Washington, or the ports of Oakland and Los Angeles, California.
The cost of shipping to or from Port of Buffalo
The cost of shipping cars to or from Port of Buffalo, New York, is dependent on many factors. Our affordable shipping rates are dependent on;
- Shipping distance. In the case of international shipping, we consider three distances.

Then the distance from the port of entry to the final destination.
