Shipping Cost from Nouakchott to Dublin

Generally, driving is cheaper for shorter distances, but for long cross-country moves, the cost difference shrinks, and shipping can become comparable or even more economical when you factor in all driving expenses like gas, food, lodging, and significant vehicle wear-and-tear. Driving costs are lower initially, but shipping saves you time, reduces fatigue, and preserves your car's resale value, making it a strong contender for long hauls.

The cheapest way to ship a car is by using an open transport carrier, choosing terminal-to-terminal service, booking during off-peak seasons, being flexible with dates, and getting multiple quotes from reputable brokers, as this method uses multi-car trailers with no weather protection but significantly lowers costs compared to enclosed shipping. For even shorter distances, having someone drive it or finding a driver moving in the same direction can be the absolute cheapest, but open transport is best for standard auto shipping needs.

The cost of shipping a car from the USA to Europe starts at around $900 per car in a shared container (consolidated container) to roughly $2,900 inside an exclusive 20ft container or around $4,200 inside an individual 40ft container.
