car transport from florida to puerto rico made simple and reliable
How it works
Shipping typically uses roll-on/roll-off vessels from Jacksonville to San Juan. You can book pickup with a licensed carrier or drive to the port; your vehicle is inspected, secured, and loaded. Because Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, paperwork is lighter than an export, though excise taxes and local fees may apply on arrival.
Timeline and pricing
Most moves take about 7–14 days from booking to pickup at the destination terminal. Expect quotes around $1,000–$2,000 depending on size, season, and service level. Confirm whether marine cargo insurance is included and the deductible, and get cutoff dates for sailing.
Bring the original title, valid ID, and any lienholder authorization.
Clean the car, remove personal items, and leave fuel near one-quarter tank.
Disable alarms and toll transponders; provide a spare key set.
Photograph the exterior for condition at origin and destination.
Choose a bonded ocean carrier with clear updates, ask about tracking, and keep copies of receipts; these simple steps make a smooth handoff and arrival.
