Shipping Methods

Shipping bulletproof cars involves specialized logistics and considerations due to the unique nature of armored vehicles. It is also important to understand the different costs and fees associated with shipping – and that the costs will vary based on the method you choose. Always try and get quotes before you hand over the keys to your vehicle.

Here are some common methods used to ship bulletproof cars:

1. Enclosed Transport Services:
Opting for enclosed transport services is one of the safest methods for shipping bulletproof cars. Enclosed carriers protect from the elements and offer an extra layer of security. This is particularly important for armored vehicles, ensuring that they are shielded from potential damage during transit.

2. Professional Armored Vehicle Transport Companies:
Some companies (like Armormax) specialize in the transportation of armored vehicles, including bulletproof cars. These companies are experienced in handling the unique requirements associated with shipping armored vehicles and may have specialized equipment designed for secure transport.

3. Custom Crating:
For added protection, especially when shipping internationally, some owners choose to have their bulletproof cars custom crated. This involves placing the vehicle inside a specially designed crate that provides an extra layer of security against potential damage or tampering.

4. Air Freight:
Air freight is a fast and secure option for shipping bulletproof cars, especially for international transport. However, it can be more expensive compared to other methods. Air freight is commonly used for expedited shipments or in situations where timely delivery is critical.

5. Transportation with Security Escorts:
In certain cases, especially for high-profile or sensitive shipments, security escorts may be employed to accompany the vehicle during transit. This could involve additional security personnel or coordination with local law enforcement for a secure convoy.

6. Shipping Container:
Shipping the bulletproof car in a container, whether by sea or land, provides an added layer of protection. The vehicle is secured within the container, reducing the risk of external damage. This method is commonly used for international shipping.

Documentation and Compliance:
Ensure that all necessary documentation, including customs paperwork, permits, and compliance with local regulations, is in order. Bulletproof cars may be subject to specific import/export regulations, and adherence to these requirements is crucial to avoid delays and complications.

Choose Reputable Transport Providers:
Select reputable and experienced transport providers with a track record in shipping armored vehicles. Research reviews, check certifications, and inquire about their experience in handling similar shipments.

It’s important to plan the shipment well in advance and coordinate with transport providers who understand the unique requirements of shipping armored vehicles. Each method has its advantages and considerations, and the choice may depend on factors such as destination, timeline, and budget. Always consult with experienced professionals in the field to ensure a secure and successful transport process.
