These are estimated costs and there are many factors that impacts the final price one will be paying to ship a car to Costa Rica from US and that includes
1. Area of the USA from which the car is being shipped. It costs less, in general to ship from East Coast than West Coast.

Two different Ways to ship a car / vehicle to Costa Rica, Roll On/Roll Off (RO/RO) and Inside a Shipping Container.
Roll On/Roll Off or RO/RO – Your vehicle is driven onto an ocean cargo ship and safely secured with special vehicle shipping equipment. Roll On/Roll Off services are extremely fast (normally only 5 days at sea), very safe, and quite efficient. RO/RO is frequently used by many of the major car dealers when doing their vehicle shipping. We also have several ports and companies that we work with that will allow you to pack your vehicle full of household items for a minimal charge.
Inside A Shipping Container – Your vehicle is loaded onto an ocean cargo ship in a standard, flat bed, or open top container. This shipping method is popular for individuals and/or families who are relocating to Costa Rica because additional personal items can be packed inside the container.
