All shapes & sizes
Our fleet of 4 ships can carry almost any type of freight that can be driven or towed onboard. Our 2 high-speed ships carry any light freight and our 2 Ro-Ro ships carry all types of freight.
Light Freight
We carry light freight on all our services – Ro-Ro and high speed, and this is typically car and van traffic up to 7.5m long and 3.1 m high, with a maximum weight of 7.0 tonnes.
For example, this would include work vans/cars, unaccompanied cars and small boats on trailers.
Medium Freight
Medium/large freight has to be transported on our conventional ferries out of Portsmouth, and this would include rigid vehicles up to 16.5m long with a weight limit of 10.5 tonnes per axle.
For example articulated lorries, removal lorries and car transporters.
