Cargoburg’s Marine Cargo Shipping Services in Lagos
Lagos serves as Nigeria’s largest port hub, and Cargoburg Logistics plays a pivotal role in managing marine cargo shipping across this dynamic region. Our services cover all aspects of the marine shipping process, from loading and unloading to customs clearance and inland transportation.
1. Full Container Load (FCL) & Less-than-Container Load (LCL) Shipping
We offer both Full Container Load (FCL) and Less-than-Container Load (LCL) marine cargo shipping services for businesses of all sizes. Whether you need an entire container for your cargo or want to share container space with other shippers, we provide flexible and cost-effective options.
FCL Shipping: Ideal for businesses with large shipments that fill a full container. It provides security, privacy, and faster transit times.
LCL Shipping: Perfect for smaller shipments that don’t fill an entire container. Cargoburg consolidates your cargo with others, making it an affordable choice for businesses shipping in smaller quantities.
2. Breakbulk Cargo Shipping
For non-containerized goods that are too large or too heavy to be transported in standard containers, we offer breakbulk cargo shipping services. Whether it’s industrial equipment, construction materials, or machinery, we manage the entire process, from loading and securing your cargo on specialized vessels to overseeing its unloading at the destination port.
