Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Bangkok to Medellin

The cost to ship a car from the USA to Colombia starts around $2,000–$3,000 per vehicle in a shared container to the Port of Cartagena. Additional considerations: Our container consolidation service to Cartagena can save importers up to 50% on overall shipping costs.

For most cars from the U.S., the cost of hauling to Colombia is $1,700 to $4,100 (this assumes the introductory shipment of a standard vehicle).

Generally, driving is cheaper than shipping for shorter distances, but the cost difference shrinks and shipping can become a better value for long hauls when factoring in hidden costs like wear & tear, time, and your own travel expenses (lodging, food). For very long trips (1000+ miles) or unreliable cars, the added costs of driving (depreciation, maintenance, fatigue) might make shipping more economical overall, say Move.org and SoFi.
