Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Moscow to Melbourne

There are two ways you can ship your belongings to Russia: air freight or sea freight. For people moving in a rush, air freight is best. Most cargo planes can travel to Russia from anywhere in the world in only two or three days.

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 a car from the USA to Australia generally costs between $2,500 and $6,000+ for freight, depending on the port (LA cheaper than NY) and method (shared vs. sole container, Roll-on/Roll-off), but expect significantly more for taxes (10% GST + Duty), compliance, and insurance, potentially bringing the total import cost to $4,500 - $10,000+ for standard cars, with older, classic cars (over 30 years) having different rules.
