Shipping car from Walvis Bay to South America
 

We intend to ship our LandCruiser at the end of the year in a container from Walvis Bay to South America. We have a couple of questions:

• What is the best port to ship to? We have understood it is Montevideo or Buenos Aires
• what agents can be recommended in Namibia and in South America?
• Are there any special issues to be aware of?

Thanks in advance for the information.

for my Experience the best Destination is Chile for an easy and cheap Entry.
I could give you a Quote from Namibia or from Capetown uf you are interested.

Dear Olaf,

Thanks.

We have decided to ship to Montevideo. All in all that fits best with our plans.

Hello Jan,

which Company you take and whats the price includings port fees in Montevideo?

Regards

Mike

We use Namibia Shipping and Logistics in Walvis Bay. Total costs without handling and taxes in Montevideo are about NAD 34000.

sounds like a good Rate

Never disesteem local charges at arrival in any place in Southamerica. Chile, Uruguay or Argentina; you could always be surprised. Inquire in advance real numbers to your shipper and always is better if you can send it as “all charges pre-paid”.

Ask to Duncan from African Overlanders in Cape Town, he recently have shipped a bike to Buenos Aires in that way that have paid very cheap all charges included and all works very well for been by sea.

Hello Jan,
