Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Clovis, New Mexico to Sao Paulo

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.

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.

The cheapest international car shipping method is usually Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo), which is ideal for operable cars, while shared container shipping offers a balance of cost and protection for higher-value vehicles, and platforms like uShip and Shiply use competitive bidding to find lower prices. Expect costs to vary widely based on destination, vehicle type, and current fuel prices, with RoRo often ranging from $900-$2500, but always compare quotes from specialized international shippers.
