there are 3 types of shipment on boat for sending cars to overseas from South Korea.
First, Ro-Ro ships are vessels designed to carry wheeled cargo, such as cars, trucks, semi-trailer trucks, trailers,and railroad cars, that are driven on and off the ship on their own wheels or using a platform vehicle, such as a self-propelled modular transporter........

Second, Bulk carrier is merchant ship specially designed to transport unpackaged bulk cargo, such as grains, coal, ore, and cement in its cargo holds..........

its type can make vehicle`s body damaged through unpackaged other items.
Third, Container ships are cargo ships that carry all of their load in truck-size intermodal containers, in a technique called containerization. They are a common means of commercial intermodal freight transport and now carry most seagoing non-bulk cargo........

first of all, in order to using container ships, Cars must be set on the container inside wall to protect its body damaged. we call this work as "Shoring".
if this work has been done properly, the wires will be loosen then finally, its body will be damaged... it happens from time to time from non-qualified workers or shoring company.
that is why we love to work with professional workers or shoring companies.
you might think of container`s capacity. how many units can be loaded?
40 feet container, mostly 4 passenger car. or 1 SUV + 3 passenger car, or 3 SUV
20 feet container, mostly 2 passenger car, or 1 SUV
and after shoring work, the container will be moved by truck to near Harbor in Korea.
and with other many many containers, it starts to travel to the port in your country.
if you use container ship, you can put another items in the space of container. Because it belongs to you.^^ some clients put Oil, spare parts, electric machine, etc,...
you can make additional profits.....^^
You got it!!!
