Europe is the place to be if you like to buy new or used vehicles. You can buy them from private persons as well as from traders. However, make sure that you get the original logbook and verify the chassis numbers. Always ask for an original signed invoice and receipt. Be advised also in Europe there are good and bad people. If you have any problems, first call FIRST. We are at your service if we can help.

At each First Shipping office, sufficient parking space is available for all our customers. The period of free parking is negotiable at each office. Please ask our local offices for more information.  

All goods loaded into your vehicle are your own responsibility and First Shipping can never be held responsible for damage and/or loss of these goods (Even when written on receipt and/or shipping documents). To avoid damage and/or loss of your goods, you can order our office to weld the doors of your vehicle. Please do not overload your vehicles. This will cause problems in the transport.

NEVER LOAD DANGEROUS GOODS IN YOUR VEHICLE

 

 We are experienced in the transport of trucks, buses, and special machines. Please give us the right measurements. There are too many bridges in Europe.  

 FIRST Shipping always tries to be at the ship at the time of loading to make sure that all vehicles are handled with care and get a good place at the ship. 

 When a ship leaves the port of departure, the captain will contact the agents at destination for reporting about the voyage. Therefore, please contact the agent at destination to get the latest updates. We advise you to be at the port the moment the ship arrives. Clear your goods as soon as possible and get your goods out of the port as soon as you can. This is to avoid parking charges, damage and/or theft. Ask our agents for free advice. 

FIRST Shipping will get you the best service at the best prices possible. All First Shipping offices have the same shipping prices for the same service. We only work with first class shipping lines and professional transporters. Please ask for our best quotation now.
