Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Bakersfield, California to Brasilia

Hauling a standard-sized vehicle from the United States to Brazil generally costs between $2,400 and $4,500 using a cargo container. Shipping containers can ship other goods besides a vehicle, and most can accommodate more than one car.

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.

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.
