Shipping Method to Choose.

There are two shipping methods to choose from Roll On/ Roll Off and container shipping. Here are details to both:

Roll On/ Roll Off or RORO. This method involves the vehicle being driven onto the deck of the ship and strapped down for transport. This method is the most selected method of shipping because it is the cheapest. You will need to consider the weather conditions when choosing this method of shipping.

The next method of shipping is the container shipping. This method of shipping requires that your vehicle be packed inside the container where it is sealed and prepared for shipping. This is the most expensive way to ship your vehicle. You can even add personal belongings in the container before sealing it up to ship it.
