RO – RO Export/Import

Roll on and Roll off is a unique way of shipping heavy automobiles such as cars, trucks, lorries, trucks, or delivery vans from one location to another. Among the other ways of shipping, RO/RO stands a bit different due to its mode of transport.

While air, rail, road, and sea focus on packaging of items to be shipped, RO/RO relies on just driving the vehicle on to the ship and keeping it strapped on it. You heard it right. No packaging, no prepping, nothing!!!

Roll on and Roll off, just like the name indicates, involves the vehicle placed below the deck in a way a car is parked on a multi level parking lot. Since the vehicles are kept below the deck, they are not exposed to the weather conditions.

RO/RO is highly implemented in both importing and exporting of the automobiles over considerable distance. An added attraction is that it is a cost effective way of automobile shipping as a huge number of vehicles are transported together in a single journey. Most top automobile manufacturers use this method to transport their vehicles to different continents in a cost effective way.

Heavy and high machinery are also transported by RO/RO shipping. In regions where land shipping is not possible, most kinds of shipping is carried out by RO/RO. Roll on and roll off shipping mode is the most dependable shipping method in island countries. The mode promotes the accessibility as well as affordability of shipping in the remote geographical locations.

Roll on and Roll off are specially designed for oversized, wheeled cargo. It can be literally called floating garages for they pack the vehicles on different levels, beneath the deck and move from port to port rolling out the lot. The mode is also considered safe for their successful track record and trusted safety precautions. An important aspect to keep in mind while using Roll on and Roll off shipping mode is to book the slots in advance, depending on the number of vehicles you want to ship. The pre-booking should be considered as the slots will be limited in RO/RO, be it 20000 or 30000, and once it gets filled, it will be difficult for you to transport the vehicle on the required date.
