Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Colombo to Rome

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.

Container shipping is the most popular way to ship vehicles to Italy. With this service, cars are loaded into containers before entering the ship so that they are not damaged during transit.

Shipping from Italy to the USA costs vary widely, from around $30 for small USPS flat-rate items to potentially hundreds or thousands of dollars for heavier/larger cargo, depending on speed (express air vs. sea freight), weight/volume, and carrier (FedEx, DHL, UPS, postal service). Expect €30-€40 for small parcels with FedEx, while heavier items (5-20kg) might cost €45-€160+. Sea freight is cheaper for large items but much slower than air.
