• LoLo Shipping (Lift On/Lift Off): This shipping method requires the help of a crane to lift on and lift off your cargo from the ship. We strongly recommend this service to those shipping large inoperable vehicles and crated cargo.
• RoRo Shipping (Roll On/Roll Off): This is the least expensive shipping service available. Your cargo must be capable of rolling onto and off of the ship, meaning it must be operable. Most customers have this as a transport option but it isn’t always accepted at all sea ports. If there isn’t an available sea port for your country, we will have it shipped to the nearest one that accepts this transport method and see that ground transport methods are prepared to deliver it from there on out. This is an open air service that leaves your cargo exposed to outside elements. Make sure your cargo is fully covered under our insurance plans.
• Container Shipping: Container shipping is available to everyone. Your cargo must fit inside of a 40ft shipping container to use this method of transport. Since this shipping service protects your cargo from outside elements, it tends to cost more than the other available options.
• Flat Rack Shipping: Flat rack shipping uses an open metal frame to secure your cargo. Once your cargo is fastened to this large durable frame, it is placed on top of the ship until it reaches port. The frame with the cargo still secured, is then lifted off of the ship safely.
