What Are International Ocean Freight Services?
International ocean freight services involve the transportation of goods via cargo ships between countries. As one of the most cost-effective and efficient methods of global shipping, ocean freight is widely used for bulk shipments, containerized goods, heavy equipment, and oversized cargo. Ocean freight services can include full container load (FCL) or less than container load (LCL) options, allowing for flexibility based on the volume of goods being shipped.
The primary benefits of using ocean freight services include:
- Cost-Effective: Shipping by sea is often more affordable compared to air freight, especially for large volumes of cargo.
- Large Capacity: Ocean vessels can accommodate a wide variety of goods, from consumer products to industrial machinery.
- Global Reach: Ocean freight offers access to virtually every country and port, making it the ideal choice for international shipping.
Cargoburg Nigeria Limited specializes in managing the logistics of ocean freight shipments, ensuring that your goods are delivered safely and on time, no matter the destination.
Key Features of Cargoburg’s International Ocean Freight Services
1. Full Container Load (FCL) & Less Than Container Load (LCL)
