About these figures. Indicative RORO ocean freight in U.S. dollars for trucks under 13 tonnes, which pay by length; not a quote. Your truck is priced on its exact length, and the sailing and carrier surcharges can move it. Trucking to Port Everglades, export papers, insurance, Venezuelan port charges, duties and VAT are extra. The only binding price is the written quote from a CargoMax office.

How much does it cost to ship a tractor truck to Venezuela?
By RORO from Port Everglades, Florida, to Puerto Cabello, a day cab of 20 to 24 feet pays about USD 4,300 to 5,100 in ocean freight, and a tractor with a sleeper about USD 5,500 to 6,250. Trucking to Florida, export papers and Venezuelan charges are extra.
Why does the length of the truck matter so much?
Trucks lighter than 13 tonnes are priced by the length they take on the deck, bumper to the end of the frame, hitch included. Every foot counts, so measure it before you ask for a price.
My truck weighs more than 13 tonnes. How is it priced?
By its volume in cubic metres or its weight in tonnes, whichever is higher, like construction machinery. A 26-tonne boom truck 13 metres long comes to about USD 12,500.
Can I ship a truck from Canada to Venezuela?
Yes. It is driven on transit plates or carried on a lowboy to Port Everglades, then sails RORO to Puerto Cabello. Very large units can also go on a flat rack from Montreal or Halifax.
Can I ship a school bus or a coach?
Yes. Buses drive aboard like trucks and are priced by length; a 35 to 40 foot bus pays about USD 7,200 to 8,200 in ocean freight.
Can the truck carry cargo or parts?
Only what belongs to the truck, such as a dump body or a crane. Parts and loose cargo travel as pallets on the same RORO service, each with its own price, or in a container.
