TYPES OF OCEAN TRANSPORT

RO RO (roll on-roll off)

This method of shipment is suitable for the shipment of wheeled cargo on or those which are capable of riding on the deck and they do not need a crane to load or a specific frame (cradle) to produce.
This transfer mode of oversized cargo is the cheapest.

Consolidated container

A shipping container containing cargo from a number of shippers at a centrally located point of origin by a freight consolidator and transporting them as a single shipment to a destination point.
Consolidation of cargo often results in reduced shipping rates.

FCL (full container load)

Full Container Load is a shipment type where a cargo occupies the full size of a container.

FCL is the standard form of shipping for clients who purchase more than 1 car and prefer to clear the container by themselves.

The goods in the container are owned by one shipper, which comes with one Bill of Lading (BOL). FCL shipment is one of the cheapest ways depending on the size.
