Below we will share five important keys for the transport of your car to be carried out successfully:
Note: For financed vehicles, you must have a letter of authorization from the entity that is financing the unit in order to transport it.
If it's possible. The bank or agency to which you are paying for the vehicle is required to give you a letter saying that you are paying for it and that you can transport it out of the country. With that authorization, you can ship your vehicle.
It's optional. However, for your peace of mind, we always recommend that you take out marine insurance for the transport of your car. The cost of marine insurance will depend on the declared value of the vehicle.
In the United States, taxes are not paid. However, if you decide to self-pick up your vehicle at the port, the ports charge a NON-TWIC Fee of $80-$150 (for those consignees who do not have a TWIC Card). This Fee is not included in our quote, we only include it if you also hire our land transportation service from the port to your location.Â
Regarding the prices of port-to-port transport, the maritime rates are fixed and are based on the costs set by the maritime lines.
With these data, we will be able to know the space that will be occupied on the boat and offer you a more accurate quote for your service.
