Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance this week and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

A few weeks ago, someone was looking for a container buddy to South Africa in the Bushtaxi Forum, which is well known among Land Cruiser drivers - but he has already found someone. There is also an English-speaking section in the Bushtaxi Forum, you could have a look there. Or do you already know which agent you would like to ship with? They often also offer to arrange container sharing. I can recommend one and put you in touch with a contact person if you like.
For information about overlanding in Southern Africa, our OB Africa Ambassador Christoff @Get Out GO is a perfect contact. He can give you a lot of useful information.

Take a look at forum.buschtaxi.org/ (it´s a forum especially for Land Cruiser fans, but many european overlanders and frequent travellers also there and from time to time people are looking for container buddies there).
And a shipping agent I can really recommend is Overlander Shipping in Hamburg, Germany. You can contact Ricardo Gomes there, he also arranges container buddies.
If you have questions about shipping the rig overseas and what to look for, please check out our OB boot camp article on shipping the rig overseas:
OB Approved - Shipping the rig overseas
Sometimes we have to cross the sea with our rigs. At first, ferries come into question, but at the latest when we travel overseas, we have to ship the vehicle. Especially for those who do this for the first time it is an exciting thing and even after many shipments there is always something new...
