Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Guayaquil to Lexington, Kentucky

The cheapest international car shipping method is Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), where you drive your car onto a specialized ship, as it's significantly cheaper than container shipping but offers less protection, while shared container shipping provides a balance of cost and security, and booking in advance, choosing terminal-to-terminal service, and using comparison sites like uShip and Shiply helps lower costs further.

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 is by using open transport, where vehicles are shipped on an open-air trailer, exposing them to the elements but significantly lowering costs compared to enclosed transport. To get the best price, book in advance, be flexible with dates, compare multiple quotes from different companies, and consider shipping a car with less than a quarter tank of gas to reduce weight.
