QUICK ANSWERS

Common questions about our freight services

Straight answers to the questions we hear most. If yours isn't here, just ask.

What types of cargo do you ship?

We handle RoRo vehicles, container freight, project cargo, and machinery. Cars, trucks, construction equipment, and oversized items are all routine for us.

How long does ocean freight usually take?

Transit depends on the route. A sailing from Amsterdam to Lagos takes roughly 14–18 days. We give you the actual schedule before you book.

Do you handle customs clearance?

Yes. We prepare all export and import documentation and manage customs clearance. You get one fixed price that covers the paperwork.

Can I ship a single car?

Absolutely. We ship individual vehicles via RoRo or container. Tell us the make, model, and destination, and we'll quote you a price and a sailing date.

What countries do you serve?

We ship to and from Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Asia, and the Americas. If you have a destination in mind, we'll tell you if it's a direct run or a transshipment.
