Shipping a vehicle overseas is more than just a logistical task—it’s a process that requires technical expertise, compliance with international regulations, and meticulous planning. At Manhattan International Movers, we provide international car shipping services in New York that prioritize the safety of your vehicle and the efficiency of your global move.

Customized Car Shipping Solutions
Every car shipping project is unique. From compact sedans and electric vehicles to SUVs and classic cars, we tailor each shipment to the vehicle type, condition, and destination country. We’ll guide you through the process of selecting the right shipping method—whether that’s containerized transport for added protection or roll-on/roll-off (RoRo) shipping for cost-effective open-air delivery. Our team evaluates your preferences, budget, and timeline to deliver the best solution for your move.
Vehicle Preparation and Inspection
Preparing a vehicle for international transport is a critical step that helps avoid customs issues and physical damage. Before your car is shipped, our specialists walk you through all the preparation requirements. This includes removing personal belongings, documenting the vehicle’s condition, and performing a multi-point inspection. Your car is then cleaned, prepped, and secured according to international standards to ensure it meets customs requirements and arrives without issue.
Secure Container and RoRo Shipping Options
We offer two primary options for shipping vehicles internationally: container shipping and RoRo. With container shipping, your vehicle is loaded into a private or shared steel container for added protection against the elements and external contact. It’s a preferred option for luxury or classic cars that need enclosed handling. RoRo shipping, on the other hand, allows your vehicle to be driven directly onto a ship and parked securely. It’s ideal for operable vehicles and more budget-conscious moves. Both methods are tracked and managed from origin to destination for full peace of mind.
Import Regulations and Customs Handling
International car shipping requires precise documentation and an understanding of destination-specific import rules. Our experienced team handles the paperwork and ensures your vehicle complies with legal, safety, and emissions standards in the destination country. We prepare export declarations, title documentation, and customs clearance forms to help avoid costly delays or penalties. Our relationships with international customs agents help fast-track approvals and simplify the bureaucratic process.
Global Delivery with Trusted Partners
Once your car has cleared customs, it still needs to reach your final destination. That’s where our global network comes in. We coordinate final-mile delivery through trusted partners who provide transport to your new residence, business, or preferred pickup location. Whether you're shipping to Europe, the Middle East, Asia, or Latin America, we ensure your vehicle makes it to the other side without you having to worry about international logistics.
