Bulk Cargo Shipments
REFTRANSFLOT has an efficient system for handling the shipment of bulk cargo.
Bulk cargo is commodity cargo that is transported unpackaged in large quantities. It refers to material in either liquid or granular, particulate form, as a mass of relatively small solids, such as crude oil & petroleum products, grain, coal, or gravel. The cargo is usually loaded into the bulk carrier ship's hold, Smaller quantities (still considered "bulk") can be boxed (or drummed) and palletised. Bulk cargo is classified as liquid or dry.
Freight Forwarding
As a forwarder, we book your cargo, arrange pickup and delivery, and manage shipping documentation, regardless of point of destination or carrier. With decades of experience, we facilitate the entire forwarding process according to your specifications and the applicable requirements of the import and export countries.
FCL (Full Container Load)
As one of the leading carriers, we have the carrier relationships to offer frequent departures at competitive rates for full container load (FCL) shipments from major ports around the world. FCL loads deliver cost-efficiency and reliability at reduced CO2 emissions as compared to other transportation modes.
LCL (Less-Than-Container Load)
When you don’t have enough cargo for a full container, we offer less-than-container load (LCL) departures between major ports, managing every step to give you visibility throughout the process. Our LCL services give you flexibility to meet your varying requirements. Providing our own consolidation services or multi-country consolidation services (MCCS) for more complex shipments helps control freight costs and shipment times.
Temperature-Controlled Ocean Freight Services
REFTRANSFLOT possesses a lot of reefers that can handle everything from frozen to ambient cargoes. Our temperature-controlled containers and warehouses can meet the most demanding requirements of the food, aerospace, pharmaceutical, technology industries. We also provide value-added services such as special packaging for additional security, temperature data loggers, as well as an integrated suite of IT solutions to give our customers live visibility at any point in the journey.
