The biggest cost factor on shipping anything (I use Matson for mainland stuff)
is the cubic volume. A 40' enclosed container with 40,000 lbs is close to $7k,
as an example - that is for steel pipe and fittings. They obviously seem to
have a higher rate for a car in a trailer but Ernie is the most recent one from
here to ship a car. I doubt if you would want a trailer here - no where far
enough to drive to justify it, not like Texas, as I have learned.
