Door‑to‑Door Vehicle Shipping Services
Our car shipping services are straightforward. Simply share your pickup point, choose the destination, and select the preferred schedule. We’ll manage the end-to-end process for a smooth and secure transport experience.
Enclosed and Open Carriers
Choose from our selection of cost-effective open transport or enclosed carriers for added protection. These carriers cater to luxury, sports, and classic cars, shielding them from dust, debris, weather exposure, and road hazards.
Real‑Time Tracking and Support
We want you to know how your car is doing every step of the way. Our vehicle shipping services include an advanced tracking system and a dedicated support team to provide real-time updates and assistance during the transport.
Insurance Coverage and Compliance
As part of our vehicle shipping service, we handle customs paperwork, permits, and documentation. We also offer flexible insurance options to help protect your car during transit and reduce risk along the way.
Ship When You are Ready
Unlike standard freight forwarders, we provide a convenient bridge between storage and global transit. If your relocation timeline is fluid, we can house your vehicle in our climate-controlled, de-humidified units until your destination is ready. We manage the entire transition from our facility to the port, ensuring your vehicle remains in showroom condition.

01
Distance
The distance between pickup and drop‑off is the most significant cost factor. Longer routes may be pricier, but the overall cost per mile will decrease on long-haul shipments.
02
Vehicle Size and Weight
Larger and heavier vehicles (SUVs, trucks, minivans) cost more to ship because they take up more space and require more fuel during transit.
03
Shipping Method
The transport methods our car shipping company in Dubai offers vary in pricing. Open transport is the more cost-effective choice, while enclosed transport may add 50% or more to the cost.
04
Season and Demand
Shipping costs can rise during peak periods when carrier demand is high. Rates are often higher between April and September, when more vehicles are being transported.
05
Pickup and Delivery Locations
Having your car shipped from or to remote areas can cost more due to limited carrier access and longer detours from the main routes.
06
Vehicle Condition and Services
If your car requires specialised equipment and handling, this can increase the cost. Expedited shipping, door-to-door delivery, and premium scheduling may also incur additional fees.

What documents do I need for car shipping?
You’ll need proof of ownership, such as vehicle registration and a valid ID. For international car shipping, we handle all customs paperwork and guide you through any additional documentation required to ensure a smooth delivery.
Can I ship a non-running or damaged vehicle?
Yes. We can arrange specialised recovery equipment for non-runners. However, please notify us in advance as this requires winching capabilities and may incur a surcharge compared to standard roll-on loading.
Is there a limit on how much fuel should be in the tank?
For safety and fire regulations, especially in sea and air freight, your fuel tank must be no more than one-quarter (25%) full. If the tank is too full, our team may need to siphon the excess before loading.
What happens if my car is oversized or modified?
We accommodate modified vehicles, including lifted 4x4s and low-clearance sports cars. Please provide the exact dimensions (height, width, and ground clearance) so we can allocate a suitable carrier or container space.
Can I ship my car if it is still under a bank finance agreement?
Yes, but you will typically require a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from your bank. Most UAE lenders allow export once the loan is settled or if specific bank-approved shipping protocols are followed. Our team can advise you on the current requirements for your specific bank.
Will I have to pay import duties when shipping my car to the UK or Europe?
If you are relocating permanently (Transfer of Residence), you may be exempt from VAT and duty provided you have owned the vehicle for at least six months and lived outside the destination country for over a year.
