Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Frankfurt to Vancouver

Budget: The shorter the distance, the more cost-effective it is to drive instead of ship your car. Regardless of the total distance, look at your total moving budget and how much you can afford to spend on car shipping services compared to a cross-country drive.

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.

Canadian Requirements Step 1 is to make sure the car is even eligible to be imported into Canada. Many European and Asian cars do not meet certain Canadian standards and cannot be modified to be compliant. Just visit www.riv.ca and fill-in their online questionnaire.
