THE LEADER IN CONTAINERIZED INTERNATIONAL CAR SHIPPING
How Are Cars Shipped Overseas?
Roll-on Roll-off (RoRo): Roro is typically the cheapest way to ship a vehicle overseas, but least secure. In the roro shipping process, the car is physically driven onto the ship and physically driven off the ship. With this method, make sure you do not place additional items in your vehicles as other parties have access to your vehicle. Also, make sure your car can run and drive or you will incur additional costs for the handling of vehicles that cannot be driven.
Shared Container: Although shared container car shipping may take more time due to waiting for the container to be filled, it allows you to share the costs of international vehicle transport. The trucker does a condition report when the vehicle is picked up, and CFR does one when the car is received to be shipped internationally. The loading process is also photographed and recorded, the container is then shut and sealed and not opened until delivered, with the exception of a customs inspection. The car does not have to run and drive, you can also store additional items inside the vehicle so long as you create a packing list.
FCL Container (Private): This service allows you to have a private container to fill at your own time, allowing for faster transit, versus needing to wait for others like in a shared container. The container may be filled with autos and other cargo so long as you create a packing list. This option is also the most expensive as all costs will pertain to you.
Trust your vehicle transport to the car shipping company that major car manufacturers worldwide trust – CFR Classic.
CFR Classic is the premier international car shipping company in the USA using the industry-leading R-RAK loading system and is doing so in partnership with Trans-Rak International, a UK company that designed the system and also holds the patents.
This system allows for the loading of up to five vehicles in one container and is the safest shipping method available.
The traditional method of stacking cars in containers is to construct wooden ramps, and load the cars onto those ramps; this is not only much more complicated and decreases safety, but is also environmentally unfriendly.
