Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from Rio de Janeiro to Indianapolis, Indiana

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.

Selecting an open transport carrier is the cheapest way to ship your car. It costs an average of $0.93 less per mile compared to a closed carrier. Booking at least two weeks in advance can help you get the best price because it allows more drivers to bid on your job.
