03IN_DETAIL

What each line actually includes.

We book full container loads on our own service contracts rather than buying spot space when the rate sheet suits us. That means allocation you can plan against in peak season, and a rate that does not move between quotation and gate-in.

Every booking is filed against the vessel's cut-offs, not against our convenience. You get the VGM deadline, the SI cut-off and the gate-in window in writing when the booking is confirmed, and a call the moment any of them shifts.

  • Direct service contracts with mainline and feeder operators
  • Equipment sourcing including 20', 40', 40'HC, flat rack and open top
