All drivable vehicles without visible extensive damage will sail by RORO as usual, vehicles that are non-drivable and do not have extensive damage will be accepted by RORO TOWABLE. Ports of destination will stay the same as Tincan Port for Nigeria and Tema Port for Ghana.

It usually takes around 45–60 days for a car to be delivered to the destination port. This term will include inland delivery to the exit port, Customs clearance at the exit port and ocean shipping to your destination.

Shipping costs depend on the size, weight, condition, and location of the vehicle. Our team is doing everything possible to get the best shipping cost available on the market. In addition, we also offer container consolidation to reduce the price of some routes.

An average transit time is 45–60 days after the full payment is received for your purchase. Please note that delays may occur due to weather conditions, slow traffic, snowbird season, documentation delay, etc. Please ensure that your payment is received on time.
We suggest checking our shipping rates first, as we offer very competitive prices due to the volume. AuctionExport offers consolidation services to many destinations. However, you are free to use your own shipping company. Once the vehicle is exported out of the USA/Canada, you are required to provide us with a copy of the Bill of Lading. Ground transportation is done exclusively by AuctionExport.
Please note that vehicles must be fully cleared before departure. This process can take 2–3 weeks, depending on the exit port. It is our priority to load the car sooner, but only the shipping line is involved in vehicle loading, and we have no control over their work. They load on a first-in, first-out basis. Your car will be loaded as soon as space becomes available on the next vessel.
There might be many reasons, including full payment was not made on time, required documents not sent to the company on time, or no response to the email from the company. To check the exact reason, kindly email us at shipping@auctionexport.com.
