Shipping Cost from Madrid to Paris

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.

Taking the bus is the cheapest way to travel from Madrid to Paris. Buses traveling from Madrid to Paris depart from either Madrid's Estacion Sur De Autobuses or Avenida de América and take at least 17 hours to arrive at Paris' Gare Routière Galliéni bus station.

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.
