Prepared for: Fleet Managers & Construction Companies
Subject: Logistics Solutions for Exporting Lorry Trucks from China
Issuing Authority: SEA LION International – Global Heavy Equipment Logistics Division
Date: January 2026
Executive Summary
This report evaluates three primary marine transport methods—Roll-on/Roll-off (RO-RO), Bulk Cargo, and Flat Rack container shipping—for the export of lorry trucks from manufacturing hubs in China (e.g., Qingdao, Shanghai, Guangzhou) to global destinations. The analysis focuses on cost-efficiency, transit time, cargo security, handling requirements, and corrosion protection protocols, with emphasis on wax-based anti-corrosion treatments for seawater exposure.
1. Overview of Export Methods
| Method | Description | Suitability for Lorry Trucks |
|---|---|---|
| RO-RO | Vehicles driven onto/off specialized vessels via ramps | High – Ideal for operational, self-propelled units |
| Bulk Cargo | Trucks disassembled or partially dismantled, stowed in open cargo holds | Low – High risk, labor-intensive reassembly |
| Flat Rack | Trucks secured on open, flat-sided containers; lifted via crane | High – Optimal for oversized or non-operational units |
2. Comparative Analysis
| Parameter | RO-RO Shipping | Bulk Cargo Shipping | Flat Rack Container Shipping |
|---|---|---|---|
| Loading Mechanism | Driven on/off vessel | Crane-lifted, manual stowage | Crane-lifted, secured on platform |
| Truck Condition | Operational (drivable) | May require disassembly | Operational or non-operational |
| Transit Time (avg.) | 28–35 days (China → Europe/MENA) | 32–40 days | 30–38 days |
| Port Infrastructure | Requires RO-RO terminal | Standard bulk terminal | Standard container terminal |
| Handling Damage Risk | Low (controlled roll-on/off) | High (rigging, stacking) | Moderate (crane operations) |
| Security & Theft Risk | Low (sealed decks, access control) | High (open holds, shared space) | Moderate (container seal integrity) |
| Cost per Unit (USD) | $3,800–$4,500 | $2,900–$3,600 (plus reassembly) | $4,200–$5,000 |
| Insurance Complexity | Standard vehicle coverage | High (dismantled components) | Standard heavy equipment coverage |
| Customs Clearance | Streamlined (intact unit) | Complex (parts classification) | Straightforward (complete unit) |
Note: Cost estimates based on 2026 freight indices, 40-ton 6×4 rigid dump truck, origin: Qingdao Port.
3. Corrosion Protection: Wax Spraying Protocol
Marine transport exposes lorry trucks to high-humidity, salt-laden environments, increasing risk of galvanic and surface corrosion on undercarriages, chassis rails, and exposed metal components.
SEA LION Anti-Corrosion Standard (SACS-2026)
| Protection Layer | Specification |
|---|---|
| Base Treatment | Degrease and dry all external metal surfaces (ISO 8501-1:2007 compliant) |
| Wax Application | Electrophoretic wax spray (minimum 25 µm thickness) on chassis, frame, axles |
| Product Type | Solvent-free, hydrophobic microcrystalline wax (e.g., Woolwax®-equivalent) |
| Application Method | High-pressure spray (12–15 bar), full underbody coverage |
| Curing Time | 4 hours at 25°C ambient |
| Performance Standard | 1,000+ hours salt spray resistance (ASTM B117) |
Benefits:
- Forms self-healing, water-displacing barrier
- Compatible with painted and galvanized surfaces
- No residue interference with post-delivery operations
- Reduces post-arrival maintenance costs by up to 30%
Mandatory for all export shipments via sea. Applied pre-loading at certified SEA LION Pre-Export Treatment Facilities (PETFs) in Chinese ports.
4. Recommendation by Use Case
| Client Type | Recommended Method | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Fleet Managers | RO-RO | Fast deployment, minimal post-arrival prep, lower operational downtime |
| Construction Firms | Flat Rack | Accommodates oversized attachments (e.g., crane arms, dump bodies) |
| Cost-Sensitive Buyers | Bulk Cargo (discouraged) | Lower freight cost offset by reassembly labor and corrosion risk |
STRONG ADVISORY: Bulk cargo is not recommended for high-value or corrosion-sensitive lorry trucks due to elevated risk of component loss and structural degradation.
5. Compliance & Documentation
All shipments must comply with:
– IMDG Code (for fuel and battery transport)
– COC (Certificate of Conformity) – Issued by Chinese MOHURD
– Bill of Lading (Sea Waybill) with wax treatment certification
– Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI) per ISO 10473
Conclusion
For the export of lorry trucks from China, RO-RO offers the optimal balance of speed, safety, and cost for operational units, while Flat Rack provides flexibility for non-standard configurations. Bulk Cargo is technically feasible but economically and logistically suboptimal for complete truck units.
Wax-based anti-corrosion treatment is non-negotiable for all marine exports. SEA LION International enforces SACS-2026 as a baseline protection standard across all shipping modes to ensure asset integrity over 30+ day voyages.
Fleet and construction logistics planners are advised to integrate wax protection and method-specific handling into procurement contracts with Chinese OEMs.
