6. Conclusion
For the export of refurbished tractor truck trailers from China, Flat Rack container shipping offers the optimal balance of protection, traceability, and long-term asset integrity. While RO-RO presents cost advantages, its exposure risks necessitate enhanced corrosion controls. Bulk Cargo is not recommended due to unacceptably high degradation rates.
SEA LION International strongly advises:
– Use of Flat Rack containers for all premium refurbished units
– Implementation of full-surface wax spraying per SL-CCS-2025
– Pre-shipment inspection and certification by authorized marine surveyors
Adherence to these protocols ensures operational readiness upon delivery and extends service life in target markets.
