Roll-on/Roll-off Shipping

Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) Shipping is a cost effective and efficient solution for transporting mobile, towable, or self-propelled cargo; Commercial vehicles, POV’s, construction equipment, or heavy machinery.

 

Key Features:

Easy Loading and Unloading

Ro-Ro vessels are designed to allow cargo to be driven or towed directly onto and the vessel at both the port of load and the port of discharge.

Flexibility for Various Cargo Types

Ro-Ro vessels are more than just car carriers. Ro-Ro conveyance is a great option for a wide variety of mobile cargos across many different industries; including trucks, heavy machinery, and wheeled or tracked construction equipment.

Secure Transport

Ro-Ro conveyance provides safe and efficient loading operations onboard purpose-built vessels. Dedicated decks offer secure lashings for all types of vehicles which prevent movement during ocean transport and ensure high value cargo is protected throughout the voyage.

Breakbulk Shipping

Breakbulk Shipping is for static cargo that is not mobile or self-propelled and exceeds the parameters of a standard shipping container. RTM Lines has extensive experience handling a wide range of oversized, out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo, including industrial machinery, construction, oil and gas equipment, large reels and more.

FCL Shipping

Full Container Load (FCL) shipments require specialized equipment for cargoes of all shapes and sizes. RTM Lines can provide tailored solutions and offer a variety of different container types to suit your specific needs. Our FCL Team can assist with 20’ DV’s, 40’ DV’s, Reefers, High Cubes or Open Tops. Whatever your FCL shipment requires, RTM Lines has the equipment to keep your supply chain moving.

 

Key Features:

More Options and Faster Service

FCL transit times are typically shorter than Breakbulk or RoRo conveyances because container vessels are far more efficient during load and discharge operations and have the ability to steam faster between ports. This versatility allows container vessels to offer more port options along with expedited delivery and highly reliable service.

Cost Savings on Larger Shipments

Lower Per-Unit Costs:  When shipping large volumes of smaller units, FCL offers significant cost savings compared to non-containers options. Containers are multi-model, making them easy to handle due to their universal dimensions which significantly reduces shipping costs. This in-turn makes FCL a highly cost-effective solution for businesses shipping in-gauge cargo.

Increased Security and Reduced Risk of Damage

FCL conveyance offers lower risk and peace of mind because the goods themselves are handled less throughout the course of the shipment. Cargoes stay in the container from origin to destination and with security seals in place, containers reduce the threat of damage or theft, which greatly increases the safety, security and integrity of your cargo.
