How much does Shipping a Car Internationally cost?

I need to know the approximate cost of shipping a Honda Civic from London, England to Austin, Texas. Can someone help me?

Answer: Typically, around $2000 minimum. However, the international car shipping costs could vary depending on the car hauling company, method of moving, exact port of origin to point of destination, make and model of your car, ocean freight and so on. Shipping a car internationally could mean more than these, because there are different customs practices and rules to contend with.

Regarding the car shippers, you can ask them to provide you free shipping quotations and as you make a follow-up call or inquiry, you can negotiate, or may be just ask why they are priced that way. You can do this with 5 shippers if you like, so that you can choose which one works for you.

There are costs, though, that they cannot account for, and they will let you know about these. Customs charges, inspection fees, importation fees, and so on could vary from country to country. Therefore it is important for you to find the best car shipper who will closely guide you through the whole car shipping process. If necessary, you might want to hire an auto transport broker as well.
