Car Shipping San Lorenzo

A suburb of the capital Asuncion, San Lorenzo is one of the most populated cities in Paraguay. It is situated in the Central District and the city is bordered by other cities namely Capiatá, Nemby, Fernando de la Mora, and Luque.

It will take a little longer route to ship the car to San Lorenzo as Paraguay is a land-locked country with no direct port. Thus, the car will be shipped to neighboring country of Argentina and then transported by truck to San Lorenzo. Additionally, as many rivers crisscross Paraguay, cars can be delivered to the River Parana port. However, you will need to work closely with an experienced international auto transport service, such as our company. At A1 Auto Transport service, we are familiar with the transport service in Paraguay and can ensure there are no snags in the delivery to San Lorenzo.
