Shipping Cost from Jakarta to Durban

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.

The cheapest way to ship a car is typically open transport (an open carrier truck), as it's the most common and moves multiple cars at once, saving costs over enclosed shipping. To get the best rates, book in advance, be flexible with dates, compare multiple quotes from different brokers, choose terminal-to-terminal, and ship with a near-empty gas tank.

For reliable car shipping, companies like Montway Auto Transport, RoadRunner Auto Transport, AmeriFreight, and Mercury Auto Transport are consistently praised for good communication, punctuality, and strong customer reviews, with some noted for specific strengths like customization (Montway) or transparent pricing (RoadRunner). Reliability often depends on the specific carrier assigned, so checking reviews for individual companies and carriers is key.
