Shipping Cost from Maputo to Shenzhen

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.

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.

Shipping a car from the US to the Philippines generally costs $1,000 to $4,500+ for freight, depending on the method (cheaper Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) vs. secure container), your vehicle's size, and departure port, with extra costs for insurance, customs, duties, and taxes in the Philippines. RoRo starts lower ($1k-$2k+) while container shipping ($2k-$4k+) offers more protection but costs more, and expect significant additional fees for local processing, potentially exceeding the shipping cost.
