RoRo, or Roll-on/Roll-off, is a method of transporting wheeled cargo, such as cars, trucks, trailers, and heavy equipment, by loading them on specialised vessels or ferries. The cargo is simply driven on and off the ship on its own wheels using a ramp or platform, without the need for cranes or other lifting equipment.
