4. What is RO-RO or Containers in shipping system?
RORO or ro-ro (Roll-on/roll-off) ships are vessels designed to carry wheeled cargo such as automobiles, trucks, semi-trailer trucks, trailers or railroad cars that are driven on and off the ship on their own wheels.

For example, if you want to calculate FREIGHT for a sedan car to be shipped at Kenya’s - Mombassa Port then below is the calculation:

Size of Sedan Car = 09.5 M3
