Delivery

Delivery to the sea

The delivery process begins after full payment is received into our bank account. Many clients choose our affordable and reliable transportation service. You can estimate and compare costs using the delivery calculator on the website. Usually, deliveries are made to the nearest port, but in some cases, it may be more cost-effective to ship to major ports — this can reduce the delivery cost. Delivery time from the seller to the warehouse is typically from one day to a week (depending on the auction location). Once the vehicle arrives at the warehouse, you will receive photos and details.

You pay CLO and other customs clearance fees. We will assist you with document preparation and provide all the necessary information.
