Sea freight services are used for the majority of cargo being shipped internationally. It is a method of transporting large amounts of goods using carrier ships. Cargo is packed into containers and then loaded onto a vessel. A typical cargo ship can carry around 18,000 containers making it the most cost-effective way to transport high quantities of goods continent to continent.
Our office hubs and agency network give us global sea freight coverage. With this we offer our customers a single point of contact account management service, not only in sea freight but across our services.
Sea freight is much more affordable when compared to rail, road or air freight and is the best way to transport bulky goods. Heavy items can easily be moved as these ships have been built to carry machinery and industrial items.
