This solution gives business owners the ability to keep their supply chain moving, as opposed to waiting until they reach full container capacity and it offers cheaper shipping costs. Your freight is collected and secured until loaded for shipment, giving you peace of mind that your freight will be delivered safely and on schedule.

•   FCL – Choose our Full Container Load service and get a single container to exclusively ship your cargo. This option allows you to capitalise on high-volume inter-island shipping that is cost-effective, hassle-free and highly efficient.
