Get in touchWhat is the difference between FCL and LCL?
FCL uses a full container. With LCL, your goods form part of a consolidated container. We adapt handling to the type of shipment.
Can you arrange sea freight too?
We discuss the transport chain through our Transport & logistics service. This can be combined with port and container handling.
How can waiting times be reduced?
Early access to documents and coordinated pickup dates help reduce delays. Terminal availability, inspections and releases depend on each shipment.
What about reefer or special containers?
Include temperature requirements, goods details and special handling needs in your enquiry. We clarify feasibility and scope before you place an order.
Can you coordinate containers from Hamburg or Bremerhaven to Berlin?
We review and coordinate onward transport for your container shipment. Provide the port, container number, arrival date and delivery address. Release, customs status, pickup and delivery are aligned.
