This is how your cargo travels.
A 40' High Cube carries a mid-size electric car with chocks and lashing, and there is still room for pallets. We help you choose the container and load it well, so you only pay for the space you use.
Heavy machinery that does not fit in a closed container travels on a flat rack. The crane lowers it onto the platform, the end walls go up and it is lashed with chains, even if it is wider than the rack.
When the machine travels directly on the vessel, with no container or platform, the ship's crane lifts it from the quay and sets it on deck, on timber and lashed with chains.
