Auto Shipping to Montenegro from the UK

Vehicle shipping to Montenegro from the UK is the straightforward, low-cost way to move a car overseas. On a roll-on roll-off sailing the cars are driven straight up the ramp onto the vessel and pinned down to the car decks inside the ship, wind-proof, leak-proof and untouched for the whole 13 day passage to Bar. Our RoRo service carries cars, 4x4s, vans, minibuses, trucks, trailers, tractors, coaches, buses, RoRo plant and agricultural machinery from the UK to Montenegro.

We run weekly shipping services from the UK to Montenegro and deliver your vehicle on time and at a cost that fits your requirements. You have two main shipping methods available: RoRo shipping and container shipping.

1) RoRo Shipping Cars to Montenegro

RoRo (roll-on roll-off) transport is the most economical and easiest way of shipping a vehicle to Montenegro. It means moving cars on huge purpose-built vessels called RoRo ships. The vehicles are locked down once they are on board and do not move during the voyage to Bar.

Benefits of RoRo shipping to Montenegro

  • Small budget: RoRo shipping to Montenegro is cheaper than any other method.
  • Easy: cars drive directly on board in the UK and drive off at Bar, so loading and unloading is simple.
  • Safe: vehicles are chocked and pinned down to the deck of the ship for the whole voyage.
  • Fast: fixed weekly sailings rather than waiting for a container to fill.

2) Container Shipping Cars to Montenegro

Container shipping is where the car is loaded inside a shipping container and the container is then loaded onto the vessel. It costs a little more, but it offers more protection and is perfect for prestige and classic vehicles, non-runners, or shipments where you also want to send household goods, spare parts or trade stock to Montenegro.

Container sizes we ship to Montenegro

  • 20ft container: fits one car comfortably, plus boxes around it.
  • 40ft container: fits two cars, or three to four when professionally racked.
  • 40ft high cube: extra internal height for 4x4s, vans and campervans.
  • Flat rack: for tractors, plant and anything over height or over width.

Containerised Car Shipping to Montenegro

Inside your own box everything is under your control. All vehicles are blocked, braced, chocked and ratchet-strapped to the floor lashing rings for total safety on the sailing to Montenegro. You can also send personal belongings packed around the car, and where a car travels with a household removal we build a timber bulkhead between the vehicle and the personal effects so nothing can shift into the bodywork.

Loading is done at our own East Tilbury facility, photographed at every stage, and the container is customs sealed before it is gated in. The seal number appears on the bill of lading so your consignee in Montenegro can confirm the box has not been opened in transit.
