Whichever the mode of transport, we use only the most reliable carriers and we will track your shipment throughout the entire journey.
Full Container Shipments
For full containers shipments, the goods are loaded at the location of shipper’s choice or at our loading dock. After loading, the container is delivered to the port.
Prior to the shipmentâs departure, the shipper is provided with the shipment’s sailing details including the estimated arrival date.
Less Than Container Shipments
Less than container shipments are available whereby a group of individuals (shippers) decide to share load in a full container for shipment to their respective consignments. Partial load consignments are delivered at our loading dock where they are crated or palletized, if needed, before loading them into the container.
Container Sizes
Below are approximate dimensions and weights of different sizes of containers to help you make a choice.
Automobile Shipments
Automobiles can be shipped either in a sole use container or on a roll-on roll-off vessel. When shipped in a container, the shipper’s vehicle will be blocked and braced for safe transportation. For roll-on roll off transportation, your automobile will be loaded on board a vessel which specializes in vehicle transport. Vehicles must have less than 1/4 of a tank of gas in order to be exported and the following documentation is required:
Used Vehicle- Original title (free of liens)
New unregistered vehicle- Original certificate of title and bill of sales
