What is RORO Shipping?
RORO stands for Roll-On Roll-Off, a shipping method designed for transporting vehicles and wheeled equipment. Instead of being loaded inside containers, your vehicle is driven directly onto the ship at the U.S. port and driven off at the destination port in Guinea.
RORO vessels are equipped with wide ramps and enclosed decks, ensuring vehicles remain protected throughout the voyage. This method is widely chosen for its speed, simplicity, and affordability.
Vehicles commonly shipped by RORO include:
Cars, SUVs, and vans
Trucks, buses, and trailers
Motorcycles and ATVs
Heavy machinery and construction equipment
Boats and yachts on trailers
