The cargo holds of the Belgrace are designed for the efficient handling of solid bulk cargo, equipped with top and funnel tanks. The cargo compartment includes a large opening to facilitate loading and unloading, and features folding hatch covers that can be opened in either direction to optimize space and reduce labor requirements.

For ports without sufficient handling facilities, the deck is outfitted with four cranes to manage cargo operations.
