Our dry cargo service is the simplest and most common one we offer. It has been developed to ensure the safe and efficient shipment of any containerized cargo.

For most of our customers, this service provides the support and equipment to move some of the world’s most commonly traded commodities such as paper, white-goods and scrap metals; however we understand that not all cargoes are quite this straightforward.

During our 40 years of experience, we’ve learned how to safely handle, stow and transport more complex cargoes, in turn allowing us to extend our dry cargo services to customers looking to ship food-grade, hazardous and rare/precious cargoes.

Hazardous cargo

When we transport your hazardous cargo, we take the whole supply chain into consideration. From offering specialist training to our drivers, to the careful planning of container stowage on our vessels, we’ve established our operations to limit the risks associated with this type of cargo.

Food-grade cargo

We have an extensive inventory of reefer containers for food products that require refrigeration or freezing during transit. We also prepare our standard containers for other food-grade products to ensure we maintain the optimum condition of your cargo. Each container is dehumidified, offering you peace-of-mind that we can deliver your cargo in the same condition as it was received.

Rare and precious cargo

We understand that transporting rare or precious cargo can be stressful. When you work with us you can be assured that your cargo is travelling in safe hands, supported by a company with over 40 years of experience.

Please note that due to its bespoke nature, this service is subject to application. For further information please contact your local agent.
