Methods used for shipping cars from Dubai to Bulgaria
There are several ways to ship cars from Dubai to Bulgaria. Each method has benefits based on cost, time, and car type.
Container Shipping
Dedicated Container
Your car travels alone in its container. Choose a 20ft box for one car or a 40ft box for multiple vehicles. This option costs more but keeps your car safe from weather and damage. It works best for luxury, classic, or valuable cars that need extra care.
Shared Container
You share space and split costs with other AEON customers. This saves money while still keeping your car protected. The main drawback? The container won’t leave until it’s full of cars. This might cause delays. Suitable for regular cars when you want to save money.
RoRo
With RoRo, we drive your car onto special ships through ramps and secure it for the journey. It costs less than containers and processes faster. The ships have sound safety systems in place. You can’t pack personal items inside your car. You can take the spare wheel; your fuel tank should be filled with one-quarter of petrol. It’s best for regular vehicles that run well.
Air Freight
Air shipping is the fastest way to move your car. It costs much more than sea options but can’t beat the unmatched speed it offers. We use special equipment to load the car and tie it down securely. Choose this for urgent moves, costly cars, race cars, or when time matters more than money.
