What are the ways of a car shipping? For a vehicle shipping you can utilise car platforms/car carrier trucks. There are open carriers which are cost-efficient, but less safe and are able to carry many autos at one time. Enclosed carriers carry only up to 5 vehicles and secure them in troublesome weather conditions. Other than that, you can also have your car towed or put it on a trailer. It is essential to strap down the car properly, so it is well-secured during transport. All wheels should be secured with belts. It is important to be aware that weight of the vehicle shoud not exceed the actual weight of the car platform. You could move an auto yourself only if you have a proper driving licence for this job and a vehicle you'd like to transport does not exceed 3,5 tonne. When hiring a transport company to ship a vehicle within the EU, most probably you will need a CRM note. Shipping a vehicle with autotransporters within the UK costs around 1 pounds per kilometer. On longer routes, above 300 £ per km. moving a car with autotransporters/car carrier trucks to a foreign country costs around 0,2-0,5 £ per km, depending on the country.
