Car/Vehicle Shipping Cost from San Jose to Rome

The average price to ship a car from Los Angeles California to Italy ranges from $2195 to $3590, and the duties to import a car to Italy from Los Angeles California are 10% duty of the value of the vehicle + $1500 for local charges in Italy.

Shipping a car from the USA to Europe generally costs $1,000 to $4,000+, varying by method (RORO vs. container), distance (East vs. West Coast US), vehicle size, and destination port, with RORO being cheaper but open, and containers offering protection but costing more, plus potential destination duties/taxes ($500-$800+) adding significantly to the total.

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.
