We provide global truck shipping services from the UK using both RORO and container methods. RORO ferries transport various types of cargo, including cars, lorries, trucks, and trailers. Containers are also available for shipping vehicles to most countries worldwide. Our team can easily ship tractor units, individual trailers, or a combination of both using RORO, flat rack, or breakbulk services. We have extensive experience in shipping trucks worldwide to and from the UK. Our specialists can ship your vehicle to hundreds of destinations from various UK ports on a weekly, fortnightly, or monthly basis. We can accurately price your shipment based on the dimensions you provide, with no hidden costs, so you know the exact charge before shipping your truck. All trucks are measured and weighed at the port of export, and we can re-measure them if necessary before leaving the UK.
RoRo vessels are specifically designed to transport trucks below deck, protecting them from external elements like water. The trucks are secured and fastened to the ship’s floor to prevent any movement during transit. Roll on/Roll off (Ro-Ro) shipping is a reliable and safe method of transporting rolling cargo, including cars, trucks, caravans, motorhomes, and plant machinery overseas by sea. Ro-Ro shipping is often the most cost-effective option due to its ease of loading and unloading, but other shipping options may need to be considered. Plant machinery can be transported on tracks or wheels and can be driven or towed onto the vessel. Caravans are not self-powered and are towed and secured to the ship’s decks.
It is important to note that the quotes provided are solely based on the dimensions provided and may be subject to change after the final measurement of the vehicle at the port. Therefore, we cannot provide a quote for a truck until we have the dimensions. If you plan on loading anything onto the truck, please inform us during the inquiry so that we can inform you of any applicable charges. We take pride in our transparent pricing with no hidden costs. Once the shipping line approves the loading, it is essential to securely load and tie down anything to prevent damage during transit before dropping off the vehicle at the port for shipment.
Global Car Shipping Ltd provides affordable and competitive rates for truck and trailer shipping. Shipping these vehicles overseas is similar to shipping any other vehicle, except they cannot be shipped in containers due to their size. However, they can still be shipped using the RORO method, where the truck is driven onto the vessel and secured for the journey. The company handles all necessary documentation and offers hassle-free shipping to Africa. They can even pick up the truck from anywhere in the UK. The company offers professional and competent services from the port to the final destination. To receive an accurate quotation, the overall length, width, height, and approximate weight of the vehicle are required. Vessels sail every 2-3 weeks from various UK ports, and transit times vary depending on the destination.
