ROLL ON / ROLL OFF SERVICES

Roll on/roll off ships, also known as RoRo ships, transport large vehicles overseas. Those vehicles must be able to be driven onto the ship at departure in order to qualify for this method of shipping. Any cargo or vehicle that doesn’t fit into a shipping container uses the roll on/roll off method, which is the best way to move oversize cargo overseas. 

The team at Direct Express Inc. can let you know if RoRo is the best method for your needs. You can depend on our 30 years of experience in this industry. From that first phone call to delivery of your vehicle, our friendly and trained customer service team is behind you every step of the way.

A Closer Look at Roll On/Roll Off Services

Your vehicle will be driven onto the ship, which is similar to a large parking garage. You can drive your vehicle to the port for entry onto the RoRo ship, or our truckers can come get the vehicle from you at your home and bring it to the port. Once on the ship, your vehicle will be properly secured for the trip until it gets to the port of arrival where you or someone you designate will take ownership.

RoRo is recommended only for running vehicles. How do you know if RoRo is the right option for your needs? Well, many factors will be taken into account, such as sailing schedules, destinations, time frame and security.

With the RoRo method, the port does not offer inspection reports. They only take responsibility for loading the vehicle onto the vessel and securing it. This is why we only offer Total Loss Insurance for any vehicle on a RoRo shipment, because we can’t determine damages prior to the loading of the vehicle.

To summarize:

  • Your vehicle will be delivered to the port of loading, either by you or our truckers.
  • The terminal will load and secure your car but does not issue an inspection report.
  • No photographs are taken unless you or the driver have specified this.
  • Your car is stored outdoor at the terminal before loading.
  • Your vehicle is driven onto the carrier vessel and braced into position.
  • You or someone you designate will receive the vehicle once at the destination port.
  • Destination fees for RoRo are lower than fees for shared container.
  • We are NVOCC fully bonded and licensed
