Groupage Services
This service is offered to more common destinations, where a number of small consignments are collected and consolidated to fill a container. Thus, once sufficient cargo has been collected the container is booked and shipped; resulting in cost savings, however, the allowance for consolidation time must be taken into consideration.
LCL Service
This service is similar to the groupage mode of shipping, where cargo is collected crated, consolidated and shipments are usually dispatched every 30 days. This results in a faster more convenient solution, with a higher cost.
FCL Service
For larger loads where we pack load everything into one container, either a 6 meter, 12 meter or 12 meter high cube container is utilized. This is the safest, most efficient shipping method when a larger load is in question.
Air Freights
Many clients require essential items air freighted. This method is safe and fast when goods require an expedited delivery.
