What Is RoRo Shipping?
Nope, RoRo Shipping is not some hot, new celebrity you haven't heard about — but it is a celeb in the shipping world!
Let's get you up to speed: RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping is a method of transporting cargo, typically vehicles and heavy machinery, aboard specially designed ships.
The key feature of RoRo shipping is that vehicles and cargo can be driven onto and off the ship on their wheels, rather than being loaded and unloaded using cranes or other lifting equipment. This makes RoRo shipping a more efficient and cost-effective way to transport wheeled cargo compared to methods like container shipping.

What is the RoRo Shipping Process?
Here's a quick overview of the RoRo shipping process:
RoRo shipping offers several advantages, including faster loading and unloading times, reduced handling of cargo, and the ability to transport oversized and wheeled equipment efficiently. It is commonly used for transporting vehicles for export/import, as well as for the shipment of construction and agricultural machinery, military vehicles, and other specialized equipment.
- Vehicle/Cargo Drop-off: You will deliver the vehicle(s) or cargo being shipped to the designated RoRo terminal at the port. Or, we can come right to your home or office and pick it up for you.
- Check-in and Documentation: Don't forget to prepare all the necessary documentation, including shipping manifests, customs paperwork, and vehicle registration. Proper documentation is essential for international shipments and will vary depending on your final destination.
- Loading: The RoRo vessel is equipped with ramps that allow vehicles and cargo to be driven directly onto the ship. Our team will sort out these details, ensuring efficient use of space and weight distribution to maintain stability during the voyage.
- Unloading: Upon arrival, the RoRo vessel is docked, and the cargo is driven off the ship in the same manner it was loaded.
- Customs Clearance: Depending on the destination and the nature of the cargo, customs clearance may be required before the cargo can leave the port and enter the country.
