Shipping Methods.

When shipping to Bolivia, there are three methods to choose from. The choice you make will depend on the needs you have. Air shipping is a method of shipping but it is also the most expensive way to ship. If you need your vehicle fast, this is the way to ship it. Roll On/ Roll Off shipping is another method of shipping and is the most affordable option available. Your vehicle will only be allowed to use this method if it is cleaned out and includes only the car jack, the floor mats, and a spare tire.

Your vehicle will be driven on and off the ship on location. The last method of shipping is the container shipping that includes a 20 foot or 40 foot container that allows you to load up a container with your vehicle and any household items you want to ship. Sharing the container with someone else will cut down your cost and you still have all the benefits that a container can offer.
