Import shipping methods.

As per Senegal laws of freight shipping, there are two methods of freight shipping namely, Roll-on/Roll-Off and enclosed container shipping. If you are looking for the most affordable method, RORO works best. Your vehicle is driven on and secured and then driven off the ship deck at Port of Dakar. It is cost effective because you only have to pay as per the space occupied on the deck. However, there are some limitations that have to be adhered to. These include:

• Removing all personal and car accessories.
• Remove air conditioning gas.
• Keep quarter tank of fuel.
• Have spare tire, extra set of keys, jack and floor mats inside.
• Steam clean the vehicle.

These are some requirements that you need to complete, if you are shipping through RORO. However, these conditions are not valid when you are hiring a 20 feet or 40 feet container. You are allowed to secure your vehicle and keep other personal goods within the container for shipping to Touba. This is the more expensive method as it allows for higher security for the things.
