All vehicles in McDonald Enterprises Inventory are available for export and out of state sales.   However, there are certain procedures and California law that must be adhered to.

Exporting a Vehicle Overseas

Exporting by Ocean

We have exported vehicles as far as New Zealand, Australia, American Samoa and Canada for our customers.

Most vehicles travel to their overseas destination via ocean.  If time is of the essence and freight cost is irrelevant, air transport can also be arranged.

Once a buyer determines that a vehicle is to be purchased for export overseas, McDonald Enterprises will:
         1.  apply in person at the California DMV for a Certificate of Exportation;
         2.  coordinate with the freight forwarder and provide paperwork necessary to comply with US Customs;
         3.  facilitate CA DMV approved transport of vehicle to the nearest California port .*

         1.  will provide a clear California Title or its equivalent to the buyer in order for the buyer to register the
              vehicle in another state;
         2.  will assist with CA DMV approved transport of vehicle.*
