Moving Your Vehicle on a RORO (Roll On – Roll Off) Vessel 

We offer multiple options for shipping your automobile, including sole or shared container shipping as well as the use of RORO (Roll-on/Roll-off) vessels. Both options are popular and cost-effective methods for transporting vehicles. With RORO shipping, you also have the convenience of delivering your car directly to the port yourself. To learn more about these options and choose the one that suits your needs, feel free to contact our customer service desk for further assistance.

Sea and Air Freight Shipping 

The choice between ocean and air freight for shipping your household items depends on various factors. If you have time constraints and your crate does not exceed 100 kg in size, airfreight may be a suitable option for you, despite its higher cost. However, in most cases, ocean freight is likely to fulfill the majority of your shipping requirements, providing a cost-effective and reliable solution.

What Is The Cost of Freight Shipping? 

The cost of freight shipping is determined by several factors, including the specific shipping method and mode you choose. The following variables also come into play:

  • Type of container: Whether you opt for a Less than Container Load (LCL) or a Full Container Load (FCL) affects the cost. LCL is suitable for smaller shipments that don’t fill an entire container, while FCL is for larger shipments that require a full container.

  • Container size: The size of the container you select impacts the cost. Common sizes include 20-foot, 40-foot, and 40-foot high cube containers.

  • Contents of your cargo: The nature of the items being shipped can affect the cost. Certain goods may have additional restrictions and fees.

  • Cargo weight: The weight of your cargo may influence the cost, as it may affect the resources required for transportation.

  • Cargo dimensions: The overall dimensions of your cargo, including length, width, and height, can impact the shipping cost, as it determines the space and handling requirements.

  • Transit distance: The distance your cargo needs to travel from the origin to the destination plays a crucial role in determining the overall cost. Longer distances typically incur higher shipping charges.

To obtain an accurate cost estimate for your specific freight shipment, it is recommended to consult with a shipping provider who can consider these variables and provide a detailed quote tailored to your requirements.

Is It Worth Dropping Insurance?

When moving internationally from Washington DC, there is an option to forgo purchasing international moving insurance. However, it is important to consider the potential risks involved in ocean freight. Unforeseen perils, such as extensive damage or loss of cargo, can occur. If you are shipping high-value belongings, it is wise to give serious consideration to the inclusion of marine insurance coverage, as it provides essential protection that should not be overlooked.
