Shipping Cost from Abidjan to Montreal

The cheapest way to ship a car internationally is generally Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where cars drive onto and off the ship, costing around $900-$2,500+ depending on destination, as it avoids packaging and crane costs. For more protection, Shared Container shipping (grouping cars) is the next cheapest, while booking through platforms like Shiply or using companies with price matching, like SGT Auto Transport or Sherpa, can also find competitive rates.

Shipping a car to Canada typically costs $700 to $2,500, but can vary widely based on distance, vehicle size, shipping method ( open vs. enclosed ), and import fees like GST/PST, duties (if not NAFTA), and RIV / inspection costs, adding hundreds more for a full import, making short hauls cheaper per mile but longer hauls more economical overall.

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.
