Q:Is it cheaper to drive or ship a car?
Driving is usually cheaper for shorter distances, but shipping can become comparable or even better for very long trips when factoring in hidden driving costs like hotels, food, tolls, and significant wear & tear/depreciation, especially if you value your time or have an unreliable car. The cost-benefit ratio shifts with distance, so compare actual quotes for shipping versus estimated expenses for gas, lodging, tolls, food, and lost time/value if driving yourself.
Q:What is the cheapest way to ship a car internationally?
The cheapest kind of international car shipping is a RORO vessel. This shipping method is often more affordable for shipping cars than containers or air freight. However, it also leaves your vehicle more susceptible to damage during transport to your final destination.
Q:Is it cheaper to ship a car by train or truck?
Shipping a car by train is generally cheaper and more eco-friendly, especially for long distances on specific routes (like Amtrak's VA-FL Auto Train), but trucks offer nationwide coverage, faster service, door-to-door convenience, and are often the only option for most cross-country routes, balancing cost with flexibility. For most situations, trucks win on convenience, but trains are the cost-saver if you fit their limited routes and schedules, according to Ship a Car Direct and AmeriFreight Auto Transport.
