Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Durban to Johannesburg

The cheapest way to move a car is from depot to depot. Depots are an affordable option for car delivery. MG MoveIt has depots that are conveniently situated for collection.

Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances (under 500 miles), but for long cross-country moves (over 1,000 miles), shipping can become comparable or even cheaper when factoring in your time, food, lodging, and significant vehicle wear-and-tear, making driving less cost-effective despite lower upfront gas costs. The decision balances direct fuel savings against the hidden costs and time commitment of a long drive, with shipping offering convenience and preserving your car's mileage and condition.

This is especially true for journeys between Johannesburg and major holiday destinations like Cape Town or Durban. An average return trip by car costs approximately R4,217 to Cape Town and R2,185 to Durban.
