Vehicles come in all shapes and sizes, and that’s why the R-RAK was designed. PT Nusantara Auto Trans demonstrated this in November 2018, when they loaded two SUVs and a pickup into one 40ft container.

Transporting high-end and luxury cars requires very high levels of safety and security. The customer turned to the R-RAK in October 2018 when a valuable fleet of McLaren GT4 racing cars had to be shipped to Bahrain.

Do you need to move complicated combinations of vehicles quickly and safely? Many countries, including India, are offering incentives for vehicles to be transported by new container routes.

Did you think that cars can only be shipped in large 40ft containers? Think again. The R-RAK works equally well in any High Cube container, and Enterprise Shipping have been making the most of this by loading and shipping two Hyundai vehicles in a single 20ft container. As you can see from the pictures, the result is a neat, clean and efficient loading.

Four cars in one container! Have you ever wondered how that works? You’re not alone. One of the first questions that clients often ask is how our iconic R-Rak containerised vehicle solution achieves something that many people once believed was impossible.

Making the case for containerised vehicle solutions is easy! But have you ever wondered what sets one company apart from another? Over the last thirty years, we have seen lots of new companies try to jump on the bandwagon – with varying degrees of success.

It goes without saying that Trans-Rak steel framed car racking systems for containerised transport are the starting point for safe, secure and efficient transport. Although the great benefit of using the Trans-Rak system is optimising the payload within shipping containers, this is not the priority when loading vehicles.

Covered car transport services have traditionally been associated with the prestige end of the market. It has long been the favoured method for transporting vehicles such as liveried racing cars, prestige and classic cars, and open top cars. There are several benefits that lend appeal:

Over the years, car transport businesses have come up with a number of car racking systems to increase the safety and capacity of shipping container transport. Why? To increase the economic viability of shipping containers as an alternative to Ro-Ro transport. A 40 foot standard shipping container, with 8 feet of space in both width and height, is the equivalent to about two parking spaces. Therefore, without utilising racking, you will only ever be able to get two cars in a container; a costly proposition if you need to ship multiple vehicles.

You may be sitting right now thinking about how you’re going to ship this new batch of cars from the manufacturer to the dealership. There’s a long journey ahead for the cars and your job is to ensure the cars arrive safely, securely and in pristine condition.
