Port Services
PEOPLE-FOCUSED, PROJECT-FOCUSED
With long-standing offices in Portbury and at the Port of Tyne, our teams handle specialist logistics and cargoes 24/7, 365 days a year. Whether it’s significant infrastructure at scale, such as offshore construction or cabling logistics, or standard port agency and general customs services – we handle all kinds of cargoes, RoRo, breakbulk and specialist vessels coming in or out of the UK.
Our port services team will solve problems, handle all the associated logistics, and take responsibility for all core documentation – negotiable Bills of Lading and Carnets, for example. Smooth handling of that documentation is our bread and butter – we offer truly integrated, engineered solutions that are topped-and-tailed with experienced port services.
