Car shipping has never been simpler for anyone looking to move overseas, you have two options to consider the first being roll on/roll off (roro). Roll on/roll offvessels sail mostly from and to the ports of Southampton, Sheerness, Immingham or Bristol, etc from weekly to monthly services being offered depending on the port of arrival.Roll on/roll off vessels cater for any vehicle as long as it has wheels, steering and brakes. Fromboats, caravans, motorhomes, tractors, plant machinery right through to a car and a motorcycle can be shipped. Roro shipping tends to be the most cost effective way to ship overseas but unfortunately not every overses port operates a rorofacility and can only accept container vessels.
The advantage container shipping has over roll on/roll off is that personal effects can also be placed inside and around the vehicle inside the container. Shipping lines that operate the roll on/roll off service stipulate that no items whatsoever shall be placed inside the vehicle and will in fact refuse your vehicle entry at the dock gate if any items are found when inspecting the vehicle.
We can ship both 20ft and 40ft containers with the added advantage of shipping 40ft HC (highcube)for the same price as a standard 40ft in most cases. Container shipping tends to operate a weekly service from either, Liverpool, Felixstowe, Bristol, Grangemouth to name a few ports. Container shipping is very secure and is purely for sole use. Once the vehicle handlers have loaded the container and secured your vehicle inside using wheel chocks and straps the container is sealed shut and a seal placed on the door ensuring total privacy and security whilst being shipped. You are then allocated a container and seal number and this information is supplied on the Bill of Lading, you will receive this once the container vessel has sailed.
