Services
The average transit time for shipping cars to Europe and West Africa takes approximately three weeks and depends on the destination. Price varies depending on discharge port - please contact our office for a complete quote. If there are any personal items in the vehicle, the port will not accept the unit at the time of delivery.
Sims, Waters & Associates can ship your car, motor home, heavy equipment, boat, travel trailer, Mack truck or any other high and heavy cargo to sea ports all over the world. Your cargo will be driven or towed directly onto the vessel by port workers, lashed to the deck, and driven off the vessel once it has reached its destination port.
Use RoRo car shipping method if you are shipping one car. Once the car is aboard the ship, it is blocked and lashed to the deck floor inside the vessel. The only items permitted inside the vehicle are the spare tire along with the jack. There are many departure ports for RoRo. You can deliver the unit to the port yourself or we can pick up your unit and deliver to the closest accepting port.
There are moments when clients have enough volume to fill a complete container or have a number of pallets that would simply be more costly to ship using LCL services. This is where FCL shipping comes in. Use full container method if you are shipping multiple cars or if you're shipping an exotic cars.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
I used them to ship a large antique vehicle overseas using a RORO carrier. They were fast to answer my many questions through email and the voyage went smoothly with all paperwork and customs forms completed to their specifications. The price was also one of the lower quotes. I would use them again without hesitation.

Don't be another victim...We used these guys for at least 3 times.. They got worse each time and are completely disorganized. They are very negligent and insensitive. They don't care about your costs even for their negligence. They don't answer questions timely and when they do, they answer the wrong one. We even thought when we wrote to the owners they would be different.. The owners never responded till date. They are completely disconnected. Don't waste your time with these guys.
