RORO Shipping
RORO: Transporting Large Assets on Specialized Vessels
RORO vessels were specifically designed to handle the transportation of oversized assets. The acronym RORO stands for Roll On Roll Off, indicating the vessel's unique capability to accommodate freight that cannot be contained within standard shipping containers. Originating in the 19th century to facilitate the transportation of trains across waterways, RORO vessels gained prominence in the 1960s with the global expansion of the automotive industry.

How Does RORO Shipping Operate?
RORO shipping involves driving or towing your cargo onto and off the ocean vessels utilizing specially-built ramps capable of supporting enormous weights of up to one million pounds. When you choose RORO, your cargo can be shipped in its original state without the need for dismantling.
Your valuable asset is delivered directly to the port of departure and conveniently picked up from the port at your destination. RORO trade routes are strategically designed to serve specific global regions, making it an expedient choice for shipping large assets and ensuring a swift return on your investment.
