Oversize gensets on RoRo: who supplies the lashing material?

Two 40 t gensets by RoRo; the carrier's quote excludes lashing material.
The port requires steel straps and dunnage, which cost twice the domestic price locally.
Who normally pays, and can we ask for a lump-sum inclusion?

RoRo lashing is normally the carrier's job; charging material separately is common, so agree a lump sum in the booking confirmation.

Bring one set from home with the cargo and top up locally; that saves a lot.

The lashing plan needs carrier approval; self-bought material may not comply, so ask for the standard first.
