FAQ
Our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section is designed to help you navigate the complexities of RoRo shipping. Here, we have compiled a comprehensive list of common questions and answers to provide you with a clear understanding of the procedures and regulations involved.
How much does it cost to transport a vehicle?
The cost of transporting an automobile depends on several factors:
- The destination (from where to which port)
- What type of vehicle you want to ship (we transport Cars, Vans, Big Vans, Trucks, Heavy and special Equipment etc.)
The freight for High, heavy and large vehicles are often calculated by their measurements (length/width/height) and/or their weight.

May I pack personal effects in my vehicle?
According to the Antwerp port regulations for second hand vehicles, all cargo must be empty. The hood and boot cannot be locked to enable quay/port personnel perform the needed control.
For the safety of the port agents the vehicles, even if well used, must be in good working order and not have suffered any accidents.
What do I need to do to prepare my vehicle for transport?
Your vehicle has to be clean in good running condition with no major damages. Vehicles with broken windows are not accepted for shipment. The car should be presented for shipment with a minimum amount of fuel.
