Road transport in US

Prices of vehicles purchased in the U.S. are very low. Unfortunately, you have to reckon with the additional costs of transport. Supply cost of a purchased car from the place of purchase to the port in the U.S. depends mainly on the distance between the place of purchase and the nearest port, from which container ships sail to Europe. Buyers should include the additional cost of road transport, which is on average $1.50/mile. Distances between towns can be easily checked using the link:​ http://www.maps.google.com/

Conclusion – while buying a car the best way is to look for it near large port cities such as Miami or New York and surrounding states on the East coast. Please note that by purchasing in the south of the U.S., we buy cars that have never been driven on snow and salt. The best and cheapest shopping and transportation are from Florida. There is a great number of cars sold as new and very young, for example, from the car rental. There are two major ports of Miami and Jacksonville, so that the supply cost of purchased cars will be the lowest and the cars best and cheapest.

Buying within the mainland you can expect higher costs and also a longer waiting time for delivery to the port. No company wants to take up transportation of a single car for such low rates, waiting to accumulate a full load of 8 to 10 cars in the same direction. We use only reliable and insured carriers who may not be the cheapest, but our customers can be confident that their newly purchased car is delivered as complete and undamaged. If you buy a custom vehicle, a large-sized or a damaged vehicle without being able to move independently, higher transportation costs will apply and will be established with the carrier separately for each case.
