BEFORE
ARRANGING TO SHIP YOUR CAR TO S.AFRICA ALWAYS TAKE CAREFUL NOTE OF THE
S.AFRICAN IMPORT RESTRICTIONS.
SHIPPING YOUR CAR ON A ‘ROLL ON ROLL OFF’ CAR CARRIER
SHIP
The cheapest method of shipping cars to South Africa is on a Roll on Roll
off ship. A Roll on Roll off ship is a purpose built car carrying vessel
in which all cargo is stowed under deck in watertight conditions.
The cars are driven on at the departure port of Southampton and driven
off in Durban or Port Elizabeth. Unfortunately there is no Roll on Roll
off service currently calling at Cape Town.
Please note that NO personal items of any nature can be placed inside the vehicle for the RORO shipping service.
We can arrange collection of your vehicle from your residence in the UK and deliver it to the Port of Southampton for you. Please ask for rates for this service.
SHIPPING YOUR CAR INSIDE A CONTAINER ON A CONTAINER SHIP
The alternative method of shipment is to have your car loaded directly
into a shipping container. 
In
certain circumstances, where a container is used, personal effects may
be carried inside vehicles and you are also permitted to the fill empty
spaces inside the container with your personal goods. Please note that
container shipping is usually significantly more expensive that Roll on
Roll off shipping.
Our directly employed professionals take the greatest of care whilst
loading your car at our warehouse. We roll the car into the container
via our special dock levellers and then secure your vehicle into the container
using special ratchet straps. The wheels are also locked into position
using wooden chocks.
