Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Milan to Birmingham

Shipping a car from Italy to the USA generally costs $1,800 to $3,500+ for basic ocean freight (RORO or shared container), but total landed costs can reach $4,000 - $8,000+ including duties (2.5% of value), port fees, customs, and compliance modifications for non-compliant vehicles, with costs varying significantly based on vehicle size, port, and if it meets U.S. standards. Air freight is much more expensive (thousands more).

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.

Shipping your car via train is the cheapest way to do cross-country car shipping, although this is limited only to certain areas.
