The most reliable and cost-effective method is RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) shipping — where your vehicle is simply driven on and off the vessel.
At Britannia Export Consultants Ltd, we specialise in RoRo shipments of vehicles and machinery from UK, Belgium, and Portugal to ports across West, East, and Central Africa.
We can also assist with vehicles purchased in the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, France, Spain and other European countries, depending on collection point, documents and port routing.
⚙️ What Is RoRo Shipping?
RoRo (Roll-on/Roll-off) is one of the most practical truck shipping methods from Europe to Africa because vehicles can be driven or towed directly onto the vessel. Once on board, it’s secured inside the ship’s covered deck — no container required.
This method is ideal for:
- Cars, vans, and 4x4s
- Trucks, tippers, and tractor units
- Construction and agricultural machinery
- Trailers and other rolling cargo

Real Vehicle Shipping Experience
Britannia Export Consultants Ltd has arranged export shipping for trucks, tractor units, vans, cars, machinery, engines, gearboxes and spare parts from Europe to African ports. We work with importers, dealers, private buyers and companies who need reliable shipping coordination after purchasing vehicles in Europe.
Can I ship a non-running vehicle by RoRo?
Yes, but this must be confirmed before booking. Some ports and carriers may require the vehicle to roll, steer and brake, or additional handling equipment may be needed.
What details are needed for a RoRo shipping quote?
Vehicle location, destination port, dimensions, weight, photos, running condition and vehicle documents.
Can you arrange export documents?
Yes, Britannia Export can assist with export documentation and coordination depending on country of purchase and port of loading.
Do you ship trucks bought from dealers in Europe?
Yes. We can assist buyers who already purchased trucks, vans, machinery or parts from dealers in Europe and need shipping to Africa.
Do you ship engines and spare parts by RoRo?
Engines, gearboxes and spare parts are usually better handled by container, pallet or groupage shipping, depending on size, weight and destination.
