Shipping Method for Shipping Heavy Machinery to Spain
Our shipping vessels depart on a weekly basis from all seven U.S. seaports listed above to the two ports in Spain. Our one and only shipping method to Spain for heavy machinery is the RoRo method.

RoRo Shipping (Roll-On/Roll-Off)
We use this method for shipping construction vehicles, boats, motorcycles, motorhomes, campers, trailers, and buses, a popular option thanks to its cost-effectiveness and efficiency. It has reliable departure and arrival dates (think: airport) and looks an awful lot like a parking garage inside the ship.
Do You Need Marine Insurance?
You don’t have to get it but we highly recommend insuring your heavy machinery for the trip.
1.75% of the value of the machinery for FULL coverage, theft, vandalism, total loss, and damage with a $500 deductible. Coverage begins when your machinery is loaded onto the ship until the time it’s signed for at collection. Total Loss for 1.25% charge for the value of the machinery. You can opt to cover your machinery for 50% or $75% of the equipment’s value rather than 100% if you want. But when you fail to purchase insurance, you are responsible for paying out of pocket for any damages.
