For ro-ro transportation in China, the consignor is usually responsible for organizing port operations, and the transportation from each OEM to the terminal usually uses large trucks, railway transportation, and water transportation to complete the domestic transportation. At present, for the whole vehicle transportation in the domestic segment, the large pallet truck is still the most important transportation mode due to its flexibility advantages; for the long-distance inland transportation demand, the freight rate of railway transportation (cage transportation) is relatively low, and it plays a major role; Water transportation (river, domestic trade shipping) is restricted by routes, and currently accounts for a small proportion.
