Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Libreville to Accra

It's usually cheaper to drive your car than ship it, especially for shorter distances, as driving costs only cover gas, some food, and basic lodging; however, shipping becomes more appealing if your car's unreliable, you have a luxury vehicle, or you value your time and safety more than the extra expense of a professional service, with longer trips shrinking the cost gap.
