Coordinate collection with a confirmed sailing
For a vehicle in Halifax, ask for the current Nigeria-bound carrier options before arranging delivery to a terminal or loading facility. Port proximity alone does not confirm space, a direct service or a departure date.
Confirm receiving cutoffs, an approved delivery appointment and the documents required for the selected booking. Never deliver an unbooked vehicle to a terminal.
Check RoRo eligibility and container alternatives
If considering RoRo, disclose whether the vehicle starts, steers and brakes, and whether it has damage or leaks. The carrier decides eligibility for its specific service.
Container shipping may be an alternative, subject to dimensions, condition and loading approval. Compare the total handling costs and destination responsibilities rather than only ocean freight.
What to include in your quote request
Send the vehicle year, make, model and running condition, its exact Nova Scotia pickup address, purchase source and the intended destination in Nigeria. Add an optional VIN and your preferred shipping method if known.
Ask for the proposed shipping location, handling arrangements, included charges and separate destination costs. Confirm current availability, insurance terms and the expected stages of the journey in writing.
