| Performance Standard | 1,000+ hours salt spray resistance (ASTM B117) |
| Reapplication | Recommended upon unloading at destination for long-term storage |
Note: Wax treatment reduces post-transit maintenance costs by up to 40% and preserves resale value, especially critical for trucks destined for snowbelt regions like Rochester, NY, where road salts accelerate corrosion.
4. Recommended Solution by Use Case
| Client Profile | Recommended Method | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Large fleet buyer (10+ operational trucks) | RO-RO + Wax Spray | Cost-effective, rapid loading; wax mitigates deck exposure |
| Mixed-condition units (some non-running) | Flat Rack + Full Wax Coat | Secure transport, full protection, insurance-friendly |
| Budget-constrained buyer (low MV trucks) | Bulk Cargo + Targeted Wax | Lowest upfront cost; focus wax on critical components (brakes, suspension) |
5. Operational Workflow (China Export)
- Pre-shipment Inspection – Verified via third-party audit (Straits Inspection Certification)
- Corrosion Protection Application – Conducted at bonded yard in Lianyungang or Shanghai
- Method-Specific Loading – RO-RO: direct roll-in; Flat Rack: crane-lift with rubber padding
- Lashing & Securing – DIN 75410-3 compliance for tie-downs (Flat Rack)
- Marine Transit – GPS-tracked vessels with humidity-monitored decks (RO-RO/Flat Rack)
- US East Coast Discharge – Port of New York/New Jersey (preferred for Rochester logistics)
- Final Delivery – Drayage via Class I carrier to regional depots
6. Conclusion
For used truck exports from China targeting the Rochester, NY market, RO-RO with full wax spraying offers the optimal balance of cost and efficiency for operational units. Flat Rack containers are superior for high-value or non-operational trucks requiring maximum protection. Bulk cargo remains a budget option but requires stringent wax application to offset high corrosion and insurance risks.
