RoRo Vehicle Protection

Vehicle Protection During RoRo Transport

Protect your specialized vehicles during RoRo shipping with Cargo Damage Protection. This coverage is particularly important for roll-on/roll-off transport, safeguarding your heavy equipment from port arrival through overseas delivery by our trusted agents. 

Standard auto insurance policies don't cover international RoRo shipping. Due to the open-deck nature of RoRo vessels and the size of specialized vehicles, we strongly recommend cargo protection. If you decline Cargo Damage Protection, please note that our liability is capped at $500 per the Carriage of Goods at Sea Act.

Frequently Asked Questions About RoRo Car Shipping

What is RoRo shipping?

RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping uses specialized vessels designed to transport vehicles that can be driven or rolled on and off the ship.

This method is ideal for oversized vehicles, heavy equipment, buses, and construction machinery that are too large for standard shipping containers.

How much does RoRo shipping cost?

RoRo shipping rates vary based on vehicle size and destination and can range from $900 - $2,000. Our consolidated container service makes shipping cars from USA to Europe more affordable than ever, saving up to 50% on costs if your vehicle is not considered oversized. Contact us for specific RoRo rates to your destination.

What types of vehicles can be shipped via RoRo?

RoRo shipping is ideal for:

  • Heavy Equipment & Construction Machinery
  • Commercial Trucks & Buses
  • RVs and Motorhomes
  • Agricultural Equipment & Tractors
  • Specialized Industrial Vehicles
  • Any oversized vehicle that won't fit in a container
Is RoRo shipping right for my regular car?

For standard cars, we recommend our consolidated container shipping service instead of RoRo. Container shipping offers better pricing, allows you to ship personal items inside the vehicle, and provides more destination options.

How does the RoRo shipping process work?

The RoRo process includes:

  • Collection of your vehicle from any US location
  • Transport to the nearest RoRo port
  • Vehicle inspection and documentation
  • Loading onto the RoRo vessel
  • Ocean transport to destination port
  • Customs clearance at destination
  • Delivery to your specified location
What documentation is needed for RoRo shipping?

Required documents include:

  • Bill of Sale
  • Original Vehicle Title
  • Power of Attorney form
  • Completed Shipping Form
  • Copy of Passport (international citizens) or EIN Letter (US citizens)
  • Vehicle specifications and dimensions
Do you offer cargo protection for RoRo shipping?

Yes, we strongly recommend Cargo Protection for RoRo shipments. Standard auto insurance doesn't cover international shipping. This protection covers your vehicle from port arrival through overseas delivery. Without it, liability is capped at $500 per the Carriage of Goods at Sea Act.
