There are a few different ways vehicles can be loaded onto shipping vessels, and the most common choice is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyhaul.com\/container-shipping\">container consolidation<\/a>. Containers are available in 20, 40, and 45-foot options. 20-foot containers only hold one vehicle, so the other two lengths are used more frequently to split transportation costs between multiple vehicles headed to the same destination. If you\u2019re shipping a vehicle that needs the most protection available, a 20-foot container may be your best choice. If that isn\u2019t a concern you should consider consolidation into a container with multiple vehicles. Another option is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyhaul.com\/roro-shipping\">RORO<\/a>, or Roll-On, Roll-Off shipping. When it comes to RORO shipping, certain destination ports can diminish the timeframe it takes to unload the vehicle.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>For a vehicle to qualify for RORO shipping, it needs to meet the following requirements:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It must move under its own power<\/li>\n<li>It cannot have any broken glass or missing windows<\/li>\n<li>All tires must be present and inflated<\/li>\n<li>Doors, trunk, and hood must be able to close safely and securely<\/li>\n<li>It cannot have significant autobody damage<\/li>\n<li>There cannot be a biohazard present nor any leaking fluids<\/li>\n<li>No deployed airbags<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Vehicles that have been flooded or have sustained water damage often have additional requirements and fees. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyhaul.com\/contact-us\">Contact us<\/a> to see if your vehicle is eligible for RORO shipping.<\/p>\n<p>An important thing to keep in mind is that RORO exposes your vehicle to the elements. Vehicles shipped by RORO do not have the same protection as those that are in a container, but you can counteract possible damage by buying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyhaul.com\/blog\/2016\/11\/08\/auto-shipping-insurance-need-know\/\">marine shipping insurance<\/a> through us.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re shipping domestically, don\u2019t worry: we use only bonded and insured carriers, at no extra charge.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Either way, we\u2019ll take care of you<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re shipping via consolidation or RORO, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.easyhaul.com\/\">EasyHaul<\/a><\/strong> makes the process simple.
