Sea Freight
Groupage:
This is the best option when an early delivery date is not crucial. The packed consignment is returned to our warehouse and kept safely until we have a full container-load. Your goods will then be shipped together with those of other clients who share your destination.

 

     
LCL (less-than-container load):
This option is suitable for shipments that are not big enough to fill a normal 20 foot shipping container. The packed consignment is returned to our warehouse and the goods are packed into a wooden case (sometimes referred to as a ”lift-van”), which is often custom made to fit the shipment. This is delivered to the shipping company, loaded into a container and shipped to your destination. Upon arrival it is offloaded, and our agents collect it from the port terminal.
 
     
FCL (full container load):
This is the safest and best option for a timed shipping and delivery schedule. The packed consignment is loaded directly onto the shipping line container at your home, and the doors are sealed with security seals bearing identity numbers which are shown on the shipping documents, and verified when the doors are unlocked on delivery. Containers are delivered directly to your door, unless the address has no suitable access.
