What is the Safest Way to Ship My Car? How to Ship A Car Overseas from the USA

There are two very popular questions we always receive from customers who are shipping a car overseas for the first time:

• Question #1: What is the difference between roll-on / roll-off (ro/ro) international car shipping and container shipping? What is the least expensive way to ship my car?
• Question #2: What is the safest way to ship my car?

The above questions are easy to answer, and as one of the best international car shipping companies in the United States, you can trust that we will provide you with the safest and most affordable international car shipping service.  We want to make sure that all of our fist-time customers have a general understanding of how overseas car shipping from the United States works.

Considering driving your car across the ocean to its new home overseas?  Trust us...there are safer ways to ship your car overseas from the United States!  Below we clear up some questions, and "clear the way" for you to ship your car from the USA with K International!

What is the difference between roll-on / roll-off (ro/ro) international car shipping and container shipping? What is the least expensive way to ship my car?

Roll-On / Roll-Off shipping vessels are specially designed for all rolling cargo.  Cars and other wheeled cargo are simply driven onto the vessel and secured inside.  Because roll-on / roll-off shipping requires minimal handling and you do not have to "rent" a container to put it into, it is usually the least expensive way to ship a car overseas.

The second option for international car shipping is in a container.  The car is loaded inside a 20' or if it is more than 1 car, a 40' container, and it stays inside this container while it is being shipped.  Normally, cars with a high value are shipped inside a container to protect the car from being handled too many times in order to lesson the chance of damage.  Also, customers shipping 2-3 cars at a time can save money loading their cars inside one container.  A third reason for using a container is for customers who need to ship other personal items with their car including furniture, household goods, and clothing.  When shipping a car on a ro/ro vessel you cannot keep any personal items inside the car.  Because the car has to be professionally loaded into the container, the cost to ship a car overseas in a container is normally more expensive than ro/ro.

What is the safest way to ship my car? 

People normally feel that container shipping is safer because no one will handle the car except the warehouse.  But in general, both methods of overseas car shipping from the United States are safe.  The car is well protected inside a ro/ro vessel and it is not exposed to the elements.  The inside of a ro/ro vessel is clean, and it is even air-conditioned!  Your car will travel across the ocean in style and comfort!

Whether you are looking to ship your car overseas on a ro/ro ship or in a container, you have plenty of safe and affordable international car shipping options.  For more information on our international car transport services from the United States, give us a call at 212-267-6400 or on Skype at kinternationalny.  To receive international car shipping quotes from the United States, send us an email at sales@kinternational.com.  We will respond to all car shipping rate requests within 1-2 business days.
 

The Top 10 Most Popular Cars We Ship Overseas from the United States

Looking back at our over 20 years in the overseas car shipping industry, we have shipped thousands of cars to satisfied customers all over the world from the United States.  As one of the best international car shipping companies in the USA, it is no wonder we ship so many cars overseas each year.  After looking through our records we decided to compile a list of some of the top cars shipped overseas from the USA each year.  So without further ado, we present to you our list:

#1: Ford Mustang

Besides being the decade in which we landed a man on the moon, had John F. Kennedy as president and embraced the peace sign and hippie culture, the sixties was also the decade in which Ford released the beloved Mustang.  As one of the most popular sports cars in the US, it is no wonder it is also very popular overseas.  We have shipped vintage 1960s Mustangs to current 2012 Mustangs from the United States to destinations all around the world including Europe and Australia.

Whether it is a old-school 1960's or 1970's Mustang, or a current 2012 Ford Mustang Shelby, the Ford Mustang is one of the most sought after, affordable sports car.

#2: Chevrolet Camaro

The Ford Mustang isn't the only iconic American sports car on the list of the most popular cars shipped overseas, say hello to the Chevy Camaro.  When Ford released the Mustang in the mid-1960's, Chevrolet was quick to respond, and introduced the Camaro in 1966.  Not only is it a "small vicious animal that eats Mustangs" (or as so the Chevrolet general manager quipped during it's official release), but it is also a highly coveted car sought out by sports car enthusiasts in Europe.

How about driving around the streets of France in this Chevrolet Camaro convertible?  Pretty nice, no?

#3: Mercedes Benz M Class

So you're in West Africa and you're looking for an SUV that is capable of handling the rugged roads, is stylish and considered the crème de la crème of luxury and sophistication.  So which car do you go with?...Ladies and gentlemen say hello the Mercedes Benz M class which includes the popular Mercedes Benz ML 320, the ML550, ML350 and ML 63.  The Mercedes Benz M class is one of the most popular cars shipped to parts of west and east Africa, especially to Lagos, Nigeria, Tema, Ghana and Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania.

The Mercedes Benz M Class is one of the most popular line of used cars shipped to Africa from the United States.

#4: Toyota Camry

Toyota is one of the best-selling and reliable car makers in the world, and therefore it is no surprise that overseas buyers clamor to USA car auctions and car dealerships to purchase used Toyota Camry's and ship them overseas.  The Camry is a classic mid-size sedan, and as one of the world's most recognized brands, finding replacement car parts for Toyota Camry's is relatively simple in most regions of the world.  Today, customers in Africa and the Middle East buy thousands of used Toyota Camry's from the United States and ship them overseas.  When it comes to reliability, Toyota can't be beat.

The Toyota Camry is one of the most reliable mid-size sedans in the world, and this is why overseas buyers love to scoop up used Toyota Camry's and ship them overseas to West Africa and the Middle East from the US.

#5: Porsche 911

Who wouldn't want to drive a Porsche?  The 911 is known as one of the top competitive racing cars in the world, and for car enthusiasts in Europe, Australia, Asia and the Middle East, a coveted Porsche 911 is quite simply a must have.  Although it took 5th place in the Car of the Century award handed out in 1999, it still remains one of the most iconic cars around the world.  Overseas luxury and vintage car collectors purchase and ship used 1960's and 1970's Porsche 911's from the United States to Europe, Australia, Asia and the Middle East.  

Car enthusiasts around the world love the Porsche 911.  Whether you are cruising the streets of Dubai or London, the 911 is one of the best rides anywhere in the world.

 #6: Honda Civic

The Honda Civic is one of the most well-known subcompact cars in North America, and likewise overseas in Africa.  It is also well beloved by our neighbors up north as it has been the top selling car in Canada for the past 14 years.  Each year hundreds of used Honda Civic's are shipped overseas from the United States to countries in West Africa including Nigeria, Ghana, Benin, Senegal and Cameroon.  The Honda Civic is considered an affordable and reliable car.  Used Honda Civic's are normally available at very affordable prices in the United States, and therefore it is also one of our most shipped cars overseas.

The Honda Civic is one of the best selling cars in North America, and is also very popular with overseas buyers in Africa

 #7: Toyota Corolla

The Camry isn't the only Toyota to make the list of most popular cars sold overseas.  The Toyota Corolla isn't only the best selling car in the world, it is also one of the most popular used cars shipped from the United States to Africa, Latin America, Europe and more.  So what makes the Toyota Corolla so special?  It is unbelievably reliable, easy to fix in overseas markets, has excellent fuel efficiency and used Corolla's are available at an affordable price.  Who said you can't have your cake and eat it too?  

It should come as no surprise that the world's best selling car is also on our list of the most popular cars shipped overseas from the USA.

#8: Mini Cooper

The mini was considered an iconic British car and after receiving lukewarm reception in the 1960's was reintroduced to the American market in 2002.  Since then, the number of used mini cooper's bought and shipped from the United States has steadily increased.  BMW took over the mini marquee in the late 1990's and since then the mini has evolved to include mini cooper convertibles. Most of the mini cooper's we have shipped overseas have gone to Latin America and Europe. Today the mini cooper is known as one of the most stylish and reliable small cars in the world.

Americans moving abroad to Europe and Latin America always bring the mini-coopers along with them, as a result the mini cooper is one of our most popular cars shipped overseas.

 #9: Hummer H3

Although the Hummer H3 seized production in 2010, the Hummer craze of the early 2000's now provides international buyers with a decent selection of used Hummers.  And when you need to go over the rugged terrain of Africa or Latin America, no car is better than the heavy duty Hummer.  Originally built as an off-terrain vehicle used in the military, the popularity of the car took off when Mr. Terminator himself Arnold Schwarzenegger, was spotted destroying the streets of California in the monster truck.  Although the popularity of the Hummer started to diminish with rising fuel prices, the smallest version of the lot, the H3, is still a coveted commodity overseas.

The Hummer H3 is a perfect vehicle for the terrain of Latin America and Africa. 

#10: BMW 3 Series

Always considered one of the best cars on the road, we have shipped tons of  BMW 3 series vehicles including the 325, 328 and 335 overseas from the US.  The three series is considered BMW's best selling model and it is also a prized vehicle in several countries overseas. We have shipped BMW 3 series to ports in Europe, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.  So what makes the BMW 3 series so special?  It is the perfect blend of sophistication, luxury and affordability for the luxury car niche.  

The BMW 3 series is considered one of the best lines of vehicles in the world, and affordable used BMW's are available for overseas buyers. For Americans moving abroad, leaving behind their treasured BMW 3 series is too much to bear.

So there you have it, our list of the top 10 vehicles we have shipped overseas from the United States. So whether you are looking to ship a Toyota Camry or Corolla overseas to Nigeria, Ghana or other West African countries, or looking to cruise the glamorous European streets of France, Germany, Italy, Finland, Norway, Sweden or the Netherlands in your Porsche 911, Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro - we can help you ship your dream car overseas from the United States to Europe, Africa, Latin America, Australia, Asia and the Middle East.

The Options you have for shipping cars overseas by ocean

K International Transport is an experienced Freight Forwarder and NVOCC (Non Vessel Operating Common Carrier), so if you are looking for an international shipping company for cars that is able to guide you through shipping cars internationally then you have found it. There are two ways to ship your vehicle abroad by ocean transport:

1. Containerized Shipping
2. Roll On / Roll Off Shipping

In order to decide between these two methods of shipping vehicles overseas, you should take the following into consideration:

• How many cars am I shipping?
• If you are shipping multiple cars we may be able to fit 2 or more of them into a 40'HC shipping container, which may translate into savings on your international shipping price.
• Where do I want to send my cargo?
• Roll On / Roll Off vessels do not serve as many ports as container vessels, so if you have a specific port in mind, ask us for the service options there. The extra money it costs to ship by container may be dwarfed by the costs of getting your vehicle from the nearest Roll On / Roll Off port to your final destination. 
• How large is the vehicle I am shipping?
• Roll On / Roll Off cargo is priced by the total cubic meters of a shipment (or, in the case that tonnage exceeds cubic meters, by the amount of short tons). If your vehicle is nearly as large as a 20' shipping container (dimensions of shipping containers), it may actually be more economical to ship it inside a container. This mostly applies to trucks (lorries) and wheeled construction equipment.
• Do I need to send personal effects with my vehicle?
• If you ship a car overseas on a Roll On / Roll Off vessel, every steamship line requires that no personal effects are left in the vehicle, and will reject the car if personal effects are present. So if you are moving or for some other reason have extra things to ship with the vehicle, you will have to send them separately, or put them together in a container.

Both shipping methods are secure, but a container will be sealed by the warehouse and not opened (unless given an intensive inspection by customs) until claimed at the port of discharge.

Another consideration for container shipping is the cost to unload the vehicle and return the empty container at the port of discharge, which are generally not included in our quotations, because the charges would be in the local currency and would have to be paid directly to the terminal/port.

Whichever way you choose to ship your car, motorcycle, truck or bus abroad, K International is glad to advise you and arrange the shipment for you. Please visit our rate request page, email us (inquiries@kinternational.com) or give us a call at (212) 267-6400.

How do I ship cars like the Infiniti JX to the Middle East and other places around the world?

Many people looking to ship cars to the Middle East come to K International Transport to get rate quotations for international car shipping. Collectors located in the Middle East who purchase classic cars in the United States have them shipped to places like Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, Dubai, Iraq, Lebanon, and Egypt, while others want something more modern, and ask us how to ship an Infiniti JX from the United States to the Middle East with minimal hassle.

The 2013 Infiiniti JX will perform as well in the Middle East as it does in North America!

Overseas car shipping by container is the more secure option, but is less economical than overseas car shipping via Roll On / Roll Off service, which is very secure in its own right. Roll On / Roll Off vessels are specially designed for transporting cars and trucks overseas; cars are driven onto the ship and stowed under deck, and thus protected from the elements. On the other hand, more ports are serviced by container ships than Ro/Ro vessels, so your shipment method will depend on your destination. For example, Le Havre is the port for Roll On / Roll Off service, but container vessels service other ports like Marseilles, Paris, and Fos-sur-Mer.


K International Transport has been in the business of shipping cars overseas for over 20 years and we would be pleased to give you the best price quote for shipping cars internationally. Please visit our rate request page and fill out our form, give us a call at (212) 267-6400, or send us an email at inquiries@kinternational.com. Alternatively, you can skype us at kinternationalny.

Luxury Showdown - Which Car is Better - The Bentley Continental or the Rolls Royce Ghost?

If you are able to spend over $300,000 a year on a car, one would think you shouldn't have a reason to complain about the price.  However, with declining sales in the early 2000's, Bentley realized there was a niche market of consumers who weren't necessarily willing to spend $300,000 on a Bentley but they would be willing to spend $150,000-$200,000 instead.  Thus in 2003 the Bentley Continental Flying Spur was unveiled and Bentley took their new "niche"  all the way to the bank.  

However when you talk about one megastar car you can't forget about its biggest competitor.  After realizing its former mate Continental was making a killing on their new niche market, Rolls Royce decided to give Bentley a little competition and in 2010 unveiled their Rolls Royce Ghost as a competitor to the Continental.  Now that both cars are in the market we have to ask, which car is better the Bentley Continental or the Rolls Royce Ghost?

It's a Bentley Continental vs Rolls Royce Ghost showdown...but which car is better?

Several of our international customers ship Bentley's and Rolls Royce overseas from the United States when they are relocating for their job or moving to a new country. We ship enough Bentley's and Rolls Royce every year that our curiosity over which car is better will finally be put to rest.


The Bentley Continental vs the Rolls Royce Ghost battle will be broken up into 3 simple categories: Interior, Exterior and Handling and Speed.  


Round #1: Interior
First up is the Interior of the vehicles. The Bentley Continental is meant to have the sports-like feel to its interior.  However users have complained of the cramped and tight space inside the car.

The interior of the Bentley Continental is sleek and sporty, but doesn't offer as much space and comfort as the Rolls Royce Ghost

 The Rolls Royce Ghost also incorporated a sports-like feel to its interior.  However, the company still maintains its classic and elegant feel allowing ample leg room and not sacrificing style and comfort.

The  interior of the Rolls Royce Ghost is still a fine example of the amenities and comfort associated with the Rolls Royce brand

If we had to choose between the two interiors, we would have to give it to the Rolls Royce.  There is a sporty feel to the interior but it does not sacrifice on comfort, space and style.


Round #2: Exterior
The sleek exterior of the Bentley Continental fits the interior offering a sporty look while the Rolls Royce Ghost sticks with the classic boxy exterior look that is a signature of all Rolls Royce.  However, if the Rolls is really trying to compete in the same younger market as the Continental it does not live up to the "young" feel the same way the Continental does.  Therefore, this round we have to give it to the Bentley.  If you're keeping track the score is Bentley - 1, Rolls Royce - 1


Round #3: Handling and Speed
Now we have reached the final stage of the Bentley Continental GT vs the Rolls Royce Ghost showdown.  Most people can agree the inside and outside of both vehicles is top notch, but what really distinguishes one from the other is the handling and speed.  The Bentley Continental GT can go from 0-60 miles per hour in 4.3 seconds.  The Rolls Royce Ghost can go from 0-60 miles per hour in 4.7 seconds.  The Continental's top speed is 202 mph, a first for Bentley, while the Ghost can reach a top speed of 155 mph.  When it comes to speed, the Bentley definitely takes the cake.  The Ghost has a 8-speed transmission while the Continental has a 6-speed transmission.  A standard Continental comes with paddle shifters which is not available on the Ghost.  The Ghost is known to have a smooth ride suitable for long pleasant rides while the Continental is the wild child with faster speeds and built to drive more like a sports car.  So what is our verdict?  It depends!  If you're looking for a smooth ride and luxury the Rolls Royce Ghost is your better bet.  If you're looking for a fast ride to impress your crush, the Bentley Continental is your car.  

Which car do you think is better - the Rolls Royce Ghost or the Bentley Continental?  Give us some feedback and let us know!
