This overseas car shipping coverage safeguards your auction purchase from the moment it is loaded at our US facility until it arrives at the Belgium port and is handed over to our trusted agents.

RoRo Shipping to Belgium for Oversized Vehicles

RoRo (roll-on/roll-off) shipping from the USA to Belgium is often a practical option for transporting oversized vehicles and heavy machinery purchased on Bring-A-Trailer that may not fit inside a standard container. Vehicles are driven on and off the vessel under their own power, which can simplify port handling for certain shipments.


Key RoRo Details

  • Best suited for oversized trucks, buses, motorhomes, construction equipment, tractors, and heavy machinery purchased on Bring-a-Trailer
  • Drive-on/drive-off loading minimizes crane handling, but vehicles are not enclosed in their own container
  • Schedules and pricing depend on unit size, port pair, and vessel availability; RoRo service to Belgium may run less frequently than container options on some routes
  • For high-value or low-clearance classic vehicles from Bring-a-Trailer, enclosed container shipping may still be recommended despite higher cost
