Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Bogota to Denver, Colorado

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). Most shipments to the area come from a shipping container, so larger vehicles that cannot fit into a container are assessed an additional cost.

The cheapest kind of international car shipping is a RORO vessel. This shipping method is often more affordable for shipping cars than containers or air freight. However, it also leaves your vehicle more susceptible to damage during transport to your final destination.

It's usually cheaper to drive your car than to ship it, especially for shorter distances, but the cost difference shrinks with longer trips, and shipping can be better if you factor in time, wear-and-tear, potential breakdowns, or if your vehicle is in poor condition. Driving covers your personal travel costs (gas, hotels, food) plus added vehicle wear, while shipping involves paying a company for transport, with open trailers being cheaper than enclosed ones for more valuable cars, and inoperable vehicles costing more to ship.
