- Apply wax using automated spray system (booth-controlled)
- Seal battery compartments and air intakes with protective caps
- Document treatment with batch-specific QR-coded certification tag
Note: Wax treatment increases prep cost by ~$120–$180 per unit but reduces post-arrival rework by up to 65%.
5. Route & Logistics Constraints
- China to Great Lakes:
- Vessels must comply with Seawaymax dimensions (max 225.5 m length, 23.8 m beam)
- Transshipment at East Coast hubs (e.g., Halifax, Baltimore) often required for RO-RO and bulk
-
Flat racks may use intermodal rail from East Coast ports to Green Bay
-
Customs & Documentation:
- EPA and DOT compliance required for vehicle entry into U.S.
- Importer must secure HS Code 8704 (used trucks) and provide proof of emissions conformity
6. Recommendations
| Shipment Type | Recommended For | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| RO-RO | High-volume export of operational trucks | Wax treatment mandatory; avoid monsoon season |
| Flat Rack | Trucks with modifications, non-running units, wide loads | Ideal for integration with rail logistics |
| Bulk Cargo | Not recommended for used trucks | High risk of damage and corrosion; inefficient |
Preferred Solution: Flat Rack with Wax Protection for maximum control and compliance. RO-RO acceptable for large fleets of driveable units, provided anti-corrosion protocols are strictly enforced.
7. Conclusion
For fleet managers and construction firms importing used trucks into Green Bay, WI, Flat Rack shipping offers the highest integrity and logistical flexibility. RO-RO remains cost-competitive for operational units but demands rigorous corrosion protection. Bulk cargo is unsuitable due to handling inefficiencies and elevated degradation risk. Implementation of industrial wax spraying is non-negotiable for long-term asset preservation in maritime environments.
