RoRo Shipping Solutions for Dominican Republic
Roll-On/Roll-Off vessels are built to move cargo on wheels or on specialized rolling platforms. The handling plan depends on whether the unit is self-propelled, towable or placed on a MAFI trailer.
RoRo Vehicle Shipping
For operational cars, SUVs, pickups, vans, buses and trucks that meet carrier safety rules.
RoRo Equipment Shipping
For tractors, loaders, excavators and other self-propelled construction, agricultural or industrial machinery.
RoRo Boat Shipping
For approved boats and yachts secured to roadworthy trailers or carrier-approved cradles.
RoRo RV Shipping
For motorhomes, travel trailers, campers and specialty recreational units that meet route limits.
Why Choose Roll-On/Roll-Off Shipping to Dominican Republic?
RoRo limits unnecessary lifting because suitable cargo travels through the vessel’s ramp system. Professional crews position and secure each accepted unit on the vehicle deck for ocean transit.
- Efficient drive-on and drive-off port handling
- Practical service for large or unusually shaped rolling units
- Reduced lifting exposure for operational vehicles and machinery
- Flexible support for private, dealer, fleet and project shipments

Motorhomes, campers, travel trailers and fifth-wheel units require a complete exterior measurement and an inventory of factory-installed equipment. Propane, auxiliary batteries, generators, awnings and personal contents must be disclosed and prepared under carrier rules.
RoRo Oversized Cargo and MAFI Service to Dominican Republic
Static or out-of-gauge cargo may be placed on a carrier-owned MAFI trailer and rolled aboard by terminal equipment. This method can support generators, industrial assemblies, project machinery and heavy units that cannot travel under their own power.
MAFI availability is never automatic. Supply verified dimensions, gross weight, center-of-gravity details, lifting points, photographs and drawings so the carrier can approve the handling method and deck position.
