Automobile Shipping Rates

Q:What is the 3 year rule for cars in Japan?
Three years after purchase, every new car has to go through an expensive inspection process, and once every two years after that. Furthermore, vehicles older than 10 years have to pass the inspection every year. As a result, most car owners in Japan write off their cars after 10 years and buy new ones.
Q:What is the cheapest way to ship a car internationally?
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.
Q:How much is import tax on a car from the USA to Japan?
Import duty is payable at 10% of the price you paid for the vehicle plus the shipping cost. Meanwhile, VAT is calculated at 20% of the car's value plus any additional fees. The amount of taxes and import duties payable when shipping a car to Japan from the US will vary and depends on the details of your shipment.

Q:What is the cheapest way to ship furniture internationally?
Ocean freight shipping Ocean shipping is a great option for bulkier shipments since it offers much more space than air for a lower price. Depending on how large your shipments are, and how frequently you ship, you can choose either LCL (less than a container load) or FCL (full container load).
Q:Is it worth it to ship furniture overseas?
If you've invested in high-quality, expensive furniture, replacing everything in your new country might be more costly than shipping it. Particularly if you own pieces like a custom-made sofa, luxury dining set, or high-end mattress, the cost to buy similar items abroad may far exceed the shipping fees.

Q:How much does it cost to ship a piano internationally?
On average, you'll pay between $2,000 to $5,000 for overseas shipping of an upright piano. This price typically includes basic packing, transportation, and standard insurance. However, costs fluctuate significantly based on the specific destination and chosen shipping method.
Q:What is an average cost to move a piano?
Moving a piano costs about $400 on average. However, costs vary depending on several factors, such as cost per mile (the starting price is about $50), the type of piano (a grand piano is typically high-priced), height and weight, ease of access, and the need for disassembly and reassembly.
Q:Is a piano dolly better than hiring movers?
Lifting such a monstrous piece of equipment is back-breaking work, even if you're only lifting it onto a dolly. Many times, confident homeowners attempt to lift a piano and not only damage the instrument but injure themselves. Next time, err on the side of caution: let professionals handle the heavy lifting instead.
