Typical Shipping Prices – How Much Does It Cost?
- The majority of cars shipped from the United States to the Solomon Islands cost $2,700 to $6,200 to transport.
- The price can vary based on a number of things, but the size of the vehicle is one of the key determining factors.
The Solomon Islands consist of many different islands. There are 922 islands, to be exact. While the main form of travel is by sea, a personal vehicle will come in handy for those that choose to reside on the islands or those that plan on staying for a long time.

Methods of Shipment Available
Exporting a vehicle can be done in several ways. Choose between air shipping, container shipping, and RO/RO shipping. All of them are easily available, but air shipping is highly priced and almost impossible to afford.
Container shipping will allow a person to ship other belongings with the vehicle. The vehicle can be filled with property too. Containers can be shared with another person to help reduce the cost of shipping.
The RO/RO shipping method is also known as the roll on, roll off method. This requires the vehicle to be empty. The owner can have a car jack, a spare tire and floor mats in the vehicle.
