Methods of Vehicle Shipment
There are several ways to ship your vehicle. These methods include RO/RO shipping, container shipping and air shipping. All of these methods are reliable, but it is up to you to decide what is best. Make sure that you are shipping your vehicle within your budget's means.
RO/RO shipping is the cheapest method, but it is not accepted at all seaports. Container shipping will allow you to ship other belongings, and while air shipping sounds like a great method of shipment, it is very expensive. Air shipping cannot be afforded by most people.
