Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Cotonou 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.

Almost all car shipments will cost between $0.50 and $2.00 for each mile traveled. If your shipment is only 300 miles, expect your shipment to cost between $1.50 and $2.00 per mile. However, if your shipment is 2,000 miles, expect the cost per mile to fall between $0.50 and $1.00.

RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping is a method for transporting wheeled cargo, like cars, trucks, buses, and heavy machinery, by driving them onto and off specially designed ships via built-in or shore-based ramps, eliminating the need for cranes. It's a cost-effective, efficient, and secure way to move vehicles globally, acting like a large floating parking garage where cargo is driven on, secured to the deck, and driven off at the destination.
