Ocean freight for dangerous goods
Deep-sea and short-sea sailings for regulated cargo under the IMDG Code, with export and import clearance included.
In short
Sea is the mode most Class 1 volume moves on, and the one where terminal acceptance decides everything. A booking is only real once the terminal has accepted the class, the quantity and the dwell.
What governs it
The IMDG Code applies to the sea leg, and the pre-carriage and on-carriage run under the road and rail regimes. Ports add their own conditions on top: quantity limits for Class 1, restrictions on how long regulated cargo may remain, and in some cases a requirement that the box move straight through without being stored.
What we arrange
- Deep-sea and short-sea bookings with carriers that accept the class
- Terminal acceptance secured before the container is committed
- Export and import customs clearance
- IMDG declarations and the required signed container certificates for containers we stuff
- Pre- and on-carriage under ADR
