How Can I Ship My Vehicle Over?
Vehicle shipment can be done a couple ways. It is up to you to decide which form of shipment works best for you and your budget.
When it comes to the different types of shipping methods, RO/RO shipping and container shipping are the best options for anyone. Both are quite different methods so it will depend on your circumstances and your budget.
Container shipping is when the vehicle is placed into a container on the ship. The container can be filled with belongings as well as the vehicle itself. Any remaining space in the container can be shared with another individual. This will ease the cost of shipment.
RO/RO shipping is the least expensive method and consists of the vehicle remaining empty with a few exceptions such as floor mats, a car jack and a spare tire. This is the cheapest shipping method for vehicles. However, it is not accepted at all seaports.
After considering the methods of vehicle shipment, contact the Embassy of Mexico for further information. They will give you the most current information for vehicle shipment into Mexico.
