RoRo Shipping Services in Perth
When you need to move vehicles or wheeled cargo across Australia, Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) shipping offers a practical and efficient solution. Whether you’re transporting a new trailer boat, a private passenger car, or used heavy machinery, RoRo services are designed to make the process smooth and hassle-free.
RoRo vs. Container Shipping: What’s the Difference?
RoRo shipping refers to a method where the cargo is driven or rolled onto the vessel, rather than being loaded into containers. This makes it a preferred choice for transporting larger, heavier, or more irregularly shaped items that may not fit easily into standard shipping containers. In contrast, container shipping involves loading goods into standardised steel containers, which are then lifted onto the vessel.
Why are Shipping Containers More Expensive than RoRo?
Shipping containers, while offering a standardised and secure way to transport cargo, can be more expensive than RoRo shipping for certain types of freight. This is because the container itself adds an additional cost, as well as the specialised equipment and labour required to load and unload them. RoRo shipping, on the other hand, often has lower handling costs and can accommodate a wider range of cargo sizes and shapes.
Domestic RoRo Shipping for Heavy Equipment
A past example of our successful domestic RoRo shipping service involves the transport of a Komatsu PC1250LC-8 Excavator. The excavator was purchased on an “as is, where is” basis from Consmineral’s site in Woodie Woodie, approximately 400km southeast of Port Hedland, Western Australia.
Instead of using a container, our team arranged for the excavator to be driven onto a RoRo vessel for the journey to Perth. This allowed for a more efficient and cost-effective transport, as the excavator’s size and weight would have been challenging to accommodate in a standard shipping container.
Once the excavator arrived in Perth, our team dismantled it into an optimal shipping configuration, washed it thoroughly, and prepared it for its RoRo journey overseas to its final destination.
If you have any oversized, heavy, or irregularly shaped cargo in Perth that requires domestic transport, our RoRo shipping services may be the ideal solution. Contact us today to discuss your specific needs and receive a tailored quote.
