The Ways to Ship a Vehicle.

To ship a vehicle to Mexico, you must choose between various methods of vehicle shipment. There is air shipping, container shipping and RO/RO shipping. All of these are sufficient ways of shipping, but you will need to consider your budget as well as your needs.

RO/RO shipping is the least expensive method of shipping. This will require the vehicle to remain empty with the exception of floor mats, a car jack and a spare tire. Then, the vehicle must be able to roll on and off of the ship.

Container shipping is when the vehicle is shipped in a very large container that is placed on the ship. The vehicle as well as the container can be filled with property. The items must be allowed by Mexican Customs. The container can be shared with someone else and so can the costs of shipping.

Air shipping is the most costly form of shipping. While it helps have a vehicle delivered to landlocked countries, this method is so pricey that not many can afford it.
