Import & Export
Your container is still at sea, and we’ve already requested the unloading invoice at the port — so you get your container without delays.
About the service
FCL (Full Container Load) shipping means the container is used exclusively for your cargo. You pay a fixed rate regardless of how full the container is, and your shipment departs immediately after loading, without waiting for other shippers.
The greatest delays at the port usually result from coordination with the shipping line, the transloading warehouse, and the customs broker. You don’t have to coordinate or follow up on every step yourself.

Result:Delivered in full compliance with the carrier’s requirements, without delays

The container was unloaded in Gdynia, while the transloading warehouse was located in Gdańsk. We organized additional transport and ensured the empty container was returned to the correct depot in Gdynia.
