Should you drive or have your car transported to Sweden.
The decision to drive your car or have it shipped to Sweden is completely up to you but it’s worth considering all aspects. Driving your car to Sweden is an achievable feat from Europe but it is not good option for anyone who cant drive for long periods, has a mileage sensitive car or is too busy to put the time in to transporting the vehicle..
By Shipping or having your car delivered to any location in Sweden on a trailer you save time and inconvenience and its not that much more expensive to have it shipped than transporting it there yourself because of how much you would spend on fuel, accomodation and the opportunity cost of you taking time out of your schedule to drive it to Sweden yourself.
Methods of transporting your car to Sweden
- Shipping containers. The shipping method is also available for you if you prefer to move your car with it. If you want a well-secured shipping method, the containerized method can be considered.
- Trade plate option. If you wish for the car to be driven to France, you can get a driver to help you handle that. But as professionals, we don’t quite encourage that because it will add to the mileage of the car and that is very discouraging for cars that are to be sold.
- Towing/trailer back. If a road trip is your option, this is certainly the best and you can rely on us and get your car safely and dent-free upon arrival.
