In RORO, the vehicle is driven on the ship using pre-laid out ramps and parked in the allocated bays. The size and length of the vehicle is considered as you only pay for the parking space on the deck. When it reaches the requisite port in Tanzania, it is driven off the ship. The limitations associated with this method include:

• Disable alarms.
• Only an empty vehicle can be shipped.
• Remove air conditioning gas, personal items.
• Steam clean the interiors.

While in container shipping, you are allowed to ship your personal goods and household items along with the car in the same container.
