Cargoburg Port Services – What We Offer
We offer a wide array of port-related services designed to ensure your cargo is handled smoothly from vessel arrival to warehouse delivery. Our port services are integrated into your logistics process to save time, reduce costs, and avoid operational bottlenecks.
1. Customs Clearance at Ports
Cargoburg is a licensed customs clearing agent with years of experience handling complex port clearance procedures. We process import documentation, manage duties and tariffs, and facilitate inspections in line with Nigerian Customs regulations. We help you avoid demurrage charges and cargo delays by managing every aspect of customs compliance accurately and on time.
2. Port Handling and Stevedoring
Our port handling services ensure that your cargo is safely offloaded, transferred, and stored according to best practices. We work with professional stevedores and terminal operators to handle containerized, break bulk, and specialized cargo. With safety and cargo integrity as our top priorities, we provide full supervision of loading, offloading, and port movements.
3. Drayage and Inland Transport
Once your cargo is cleared, we provide fast and secure drayage services to move it from the port to designated locations — warehouses, factories, or inland depots. Our in-house fleet of haulage trucks ensures real-time delivery coordination with full GPS tracking, saving you time and reducing costs associated with third-party delays.
4. Container Pickup and Return
We assist in the timely pickup and return of shipping containers, helping you avoid storage fees and demurrage. Our team ensures compliance with return windows and works closely with shipping lines to coordinate container logistics.
5. Terminal Coordination and Liaison
Navigating Nigerian ports can be complex. That’s why we offer dedicated terminal coordination services — liaising with terminal operators, port authorities, and shipping lines on your behalf. Our team ensures quick container positioning, manifest reconciliation, and terminal documentation.
6. Cargo Examination Support
Cargoburg provides on-site support during customs cargo examination processes. We arrange for trained staff to be present, assist in opening containers, repack cargo post-examination, and handle any required documentation to expedite clearance.
7. Port Warehousing and Temporary Storage
Need short-term warehousing before final delivery? We provide port-adjacent storage solutions, giving you time to sort, regroup, or inspect cargo while preparing for inland distribution. Our warehouse facilities are secure, accessible, and managed under strict inventory control protocols.
