Great Clients Deserve Great Services

What we do, how we ship it, and what we take

The three sections below cover the work: what we handle, the modes we book it on, and the cargo we take. Vehicles are the bulk of it, and most of them are going to West Africa.

Freight Services

What We Do

We handle the whole move or any part of it: booking, collection, consolidation, the export filing, and the documents the destination will ask for.

Some shipments are one vehicle on one sailing. Others are a standing programme for a dealer moving units every month. The work is the same either way, only the volume changes.

Transport Modes

How We Ship

We book by sea, by air and inland, through agents we have worked with for years.

We collect from auctions, dealerships and private addresses, deliver to the loading port, and handle the export compliance so the unit is not turned away at the gate.

Shipments

What We Ship

We take vehicles of every kind, including salvage and non-running units, alongside personal effects, machinery and general cargo.

You get one point of contact who coordinates the carrier, the terminal and the paperwork, so you are not chasing three parties who each know one part of the shipment.

Operating in 40+ countries

Goods are loaded, secured and ready to be transported from either Sallaum ports or Grimaldi ports.
