Container shipping is typically the most cost-effective and efficient method of ocean freight forwarding, but what if the goods you need to ship don’t fit in a standard shipping container? In this case, you may need to move your cargo using break bulk shipping services!!!!
Break bulk transportation involves moving large cargo in smaller units, such as pallets, barrels, drums, boxes, or bags or loose cargoes. It was the most common method of ocean freight transportation before the rise of large container ships. While typically more labor intensive than full container load (FCL) and less than container load (LCL) shipping, it is often still the best shipping choice when products are too large, heavy, or awkwardly shaped to fit in a standard container, or if the products need to be transported to a minimally-developed port that can’t accommodate container ships.
If you have break bulk cargo, let ContPort Lines Services facilitate the move from beginning to end. With our years of experience and extensive professional network in the project cargo forwarding industry, we know how to transport your shipment safely and at the lowest possible cost to you.
Our experts deliver tailor-made solutions ensuring a safe and secure handling of the cargo. Our team is focused on loss and claim prevention, enabling a safe and smooth delivery.
On board vessels, your cargo will be stowed on a pre-prepared bed containing multiple flat racks, thus providing a safe working environment for stevedores and ensuring maximum lashing opportunities in accordance with IMO CSS Code Annex 13 requirements.
As part of our feasibility studies and preparation, 3D modelling is used to demonstrate handling stowage and lashing requirements.
