Ship a Car via Air Freight
Shipping a car via air freight turns a six to eight week process into two. We pick up your car from wherever it is and take it to the nearest cargo airport. From there we can ship it to major airports all around the world. Then your car is delivered right to the destination all in a span of one to two weeks. We use air freight for cars for thousands of shipments a year to accommodate tight timelines such as shows and events.
Ship Goods via Air Freight
Moving via air freight is equally fast in that it turns a six to eight week process into two. We still offer our full service door to door moves when shipping goods via air freight. Our movers go to your home and pack/wrap then move your goods to the nearest airport. Once the goods land, we’ll schedule delivery and move them to your new home overseas. This service is great for corporate moves when your company needs you to move to an international job within a few weeks.
How Much Does it Cost to Ship by Air?
The cost to ship a car or household goods by air depends on three major factors:
- Current location of your goods
- Dimensions and weight of the goods you are shipping
- Requirements of the destination country
A portion of the international air freight rate depends on the location because the cost to pick up your goods increases the further away from the nearest airport they are. It is also possible to transport your shipment to the airport yourself. The actual cost of international air freight itself depends on the dimensions and weight of the belongings that you are shipping. Larger and heavier goods will be more expensive to ship than smaller items with all other factors being the same. Then the last part of the overall price is the requirements of the destination country. This refers to the duties and taxes of the country as well as the associated port fees.
