What Is Ocean Freight?
Ocean freight transport is the shipping of goods by sea via shipping containers.
Ocean freight is the most common mode of transport that importers and exporters use. In fact, a full 90% of everything is shipped by ocean freight and sea freight. The other international freight transport modes (courier, standard air freight, express air freight) are all faster, but they are also more expensive. Smaller shipments, and products with a high value, generally go by these other modes.
Ocean freight gives you the benefits of worldwide capacity and reliable sailing times. The best part about it is it’s much more cost-effective than air freight for international shipments.
Ocean freight shipping is perfect for bulky shipments that are being sent over long distances.
You won’t have to worry about your shipment taking up too much space in the container because there’s no functional limit to how big it can be.
We can ship via Ocean Freight:
Furniture (antique or modern)
Entire household goods
Musical instruments
Medical equipment
