RoRo for speed and simplicity. Container for protection and consolidation. Both fully insured, end-to-end tracked, and booked on the next available sailing.
If your vehicle runs and you want it there fast, RoRo wins. If it's salvage, high-value, or you want to ship parts alongside, container is the move.
Your vehicle drives onto the ship, secured on a covered deck, and drives off at Tema or Lagos. No container packing, no extra handling — just sailings every week.
Sealed steel container — perfect for non-running vehicles, luxury cars, or shipping parts and personal effects alongside. Shared or exclusive bookings available.
