Risk of Physical Damage Low (driven under control) Medium (rigging/lifting hazards) Medium-High (stacking, weather exposure)
Weather Protection Partial (deck exposure; some vessels have shelters) Low (exposed in hold) None (fully exposed; requires protective wrapping)
Security Medium (accessible decks; monitoring varies) High (sealed holds) Medium (visible but lashed)
Average Cost per Unit (USD) $800–$1,200 $1,400–$1,800 $1,600–$2,200
Transit Time Fast (direct routes, minimal port delays) Moderate (shared with other cargo) Moderate to Slow (subject to container scheduling)
Insurance Premiums Low to Moderate Moderate High (due to exposure risk)
Best For High-volume, time-sensitive shipments Mixed cargo loads; non-containerizable units Oversized trucks, disassembled units, or non-operational vehicles

3. Corrosion Protection: Wax Spraying System

Marine environments expose metallic surfaces to salt-laden air and humidity, accelerating oxidation and structural degradation during transit (typically 14–45 days). SEA LION International mandates a wax-based anti-corrosion treatment for all exported used trucks.

Wax Spraying Protocol (SEA LION Standard: WXP-2026)

Parameter Specification
Coating Type Solvent-based synthetic wax emulsion (non-tacky, hydrophobic)
Application Method High-pressure spray (15–20 bar), full undercarriage + chassis coverage
Target Areas Frame rails, suspension components, brake lines, fuel tanks, wheel hubs
Dry Film Thickness 25–35 µm
Salt Spray Resistance (ASTM B117) 500+ hours
Post-Transit Removal Biodegradable citrus-based solvent or high-pressure wash (non-corrosive)
Coverage per Unit 3.5–5.0 liters, depending on GVW class
Validity Up to 12 months in maritime storage

Note: Wax treatment is mandatory for Flat Rack and Bulk Cargo shipments. RO-RO units receive treatment as standard due to deck exposure.


4. Operational Recommendations

Scenario Recommended Method Rationale
High-volume export (200+ units), operational trucks RO-RO Lowest cost per unit, fastest turnaround, reduced handling damage
Mixed cargo (trucks + construction equipment) Bulk Cargo Efficient space utilization in multipurpose vessels
Oversized or non-functional trucks Flat Rack Accommodates disassembled or damaged units; crane loading feasible
Markets with limited RO-RO infrastructure Flat Rack Containerized access to standard ports
Long-term storage en route or at destination All methods + Wax Spray Wax coating essential to prevent rust during idle periods

5. Compliance & Certification

All shipments comply with:
IMO International Convention for Safe Containers (CSC)
IMDG Code (for fuel and residual fluids)
Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) standards (for select destinations)
China Classification Society (CCS) pre-shipment inspection

Wax formulation meets REACH and RoHS compliance for environmental safety.


6. Conclusion

For fleet managers and construction logistics planners, RO-RO remains the optimal solution for exporting operational used trucks from China, offering scalability and cost efficiency. Flat Rack is reserved for non-standard units, while Bulk Cargo suits mixed-load strategies. Wax-based corrosion protection is non-negotiable across all methods to ensure asset integrity upon delivery.
