Container transport is the road handling of a sea container on the port or rail-terminal leg, known as drayage. After a booking we collect the full container, deliver it to unloading and return the empty, and for export we deliver a container for loading. The service is for importers and exporters who need to tie a port to a warehouse or factory and to customs.
What it covers
- Collecting a full container at the port or terminal after a booking and within the window agreed with the terminal
- Delivering the container to the unloading address and returning the empty to the designated depot
- Delivering an empty or full container for export loading
- Matching the chassis to the container type and length, including heavier loads
- Watching the free days and the demurrage and detention status for the order
- Tying the move to import or export clearance
- Handing over transport documents and confirmation that the empty was returned
- Option to unload at our warehouse in Kielce or Legnica when the final address is not yet ready
How we do it
We start from the container number, the booking and the release terminal. We check how many free days the carrier grants for the order and plan collection and return so they fit inside those days. We match the right chassis to the container type, because that decides whether the load may legally move on the road at all.
Once the container is collected we deliver it to unloading and return the empty to the depot named by the carrier. When a deadline is at risk, for example a queue at the terminal or a warehouse that is not ready, we flag it before waiting turns into a charge. We tie the whole move to clearance so the container does not sit on its customs status.
Limits of the service (what it does NOT cover / what to know)
We are not a shipping line or a terminal, and we do not set demurrage or detention rates. The number of free days and the level of the charges follow the carrier terms for the order, not our price list. If the booking, the customs documents or the warehouse readiness slip, the container stands, and standstill charges accrue per day and can exceed the cost of the move itself. We are not responsible for how the goods were loaded and secured inside the container when the shipper did it. Clearance and permits are handled within the scope set in the order.
