Trade Term / RORO and Container shipping

1.RORO

syaryo_menu_1_off

Roll-on/roll-off ships are vessels designed to carry wheeled cargo, such as cars, trucks, semi-trailer trucks, trailers, and railroad cars, that are driven on and off the ship on their own wheels or using a platform vehicle, such as a self-propelled modular transporter. This is in contrast to lift-on/lift-off (LoLo) vessels, which use a crane to load and unload cargo.

If you want only one or two cars , we should ship by RORO ship because container's freight is more expensive than RORO ship if there is only one or two cars.

Normally , we are using shipping "EUKOR" for africa and "ECL" for Myanmar and some other company for other countries. Their ships has big space and many shipping and fast shipping.

 

2.Container

Container ships (sometimes spelled containerships) are cargo ships that carry all of their load in truck-size intermodal containers, in a technique called containerization. They are a common means of commercial intermodal freight transport and now carry most seagoing non-bulk cargo.

Container ship capacity is measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU). Typical loads are a mix of 20-foot and 40-foot (2-TEU) ISO-standard containers, with the latter predominant.

If you buy 3 or 4 cars , or you buy with some parts etc , you should import by container shipping. It will be cheaper than RORO ship. And of course we can put any car and any parts into the container. Nowadays , container's shipping for our customer are increasing every month.

If you want to import car and make business , you should import them by container. You can make bigger profit than RORO ship. This is good idea for your business.
