What We Deliver

A carrier bench that shows up, a weekly sailing and lift plan, and clean files at customs. We set rates per lane, fix free time and storage rules, place bookings before cut off, and keep a live tracker with hand offs logged. You get one team that covers bookings, drayage, documents, and exceptions without drama.

Core Lanes And Modes

Mode Best For Notes
Ocean FCL Full containers on fixed monthly volume Space protection, free time rules, demurrage control
Ocean LCL Mixed pallets and small runs Cut off discipline and deconsolidation speed matter
Air Freight Urgent, high value, or fragile cargo Chargeable weight and security screening drive cost
FTL And LTL Road legs to and from ports and warehouses Appointment windows, axle limits, and detention rules fixed
Warehousing Bonded storage, cross dock, and stock throughput CMA or tri party where control of title matters

Dispatch Process And Timeline

Step What Happens
Onboarding Lane map, volumes, cargo specs, HS codes, and customs profile locked. Carrier matrix set.
Booking Cut off dates fixed, equipment reserved, pick up windows issued, drayage scheduled.
Docs Commercial invoice, packing list, certificates, and drafts checked before cargo loads.
Move Live tracking and milestone alerts. Exceptions handled with written options and costs before action.
Arrival Customs cleared, delivery appointment set, POD stored, billing issued with full backup.

Control, Documents, And Storage

We keep bills of lading, AWBs, and CMRs aligned with invoices and HS codes. Where cargo sits in tank or warehouse, we prefer CMA or tri party control. Insurance is checked for hull, cargo, and stock throughput with loss payee where lenders ask. Hand offs are logged in the tracker and shared weekly.

Pricing Models And Fees

Pricing depends on lane, mode, season, and free time rules. We keep it simple and written. No teaser rates and no surprises after loading.

Model Typical Range Notes
Per Shipment Margin 5 to 15 percent on net freight or a fixed per container fee Set per lane during onboarding
Monthly Retainer USD 10,000 to 25,000 for dedicated dispatch and space protection Offset against margins once volume clears a threshold
Accessorials At cost with pass through Demurrage, detention, storage, and inspections disclosed in advance where possible

Compliance And Customs

We keep shipper and consignee KYC on file, screen parties against sanctions lists, and check product level controls. Customs entries reflect correct HS codes, value, origin, and preference claims where eligible. Certificates and licenses are tracked. We coordinate with your bank or insurer if trade finance or TCI rules apply.

Shipper Data Room Checklist

Company KYC and contacts. Lane map with volumes by month. Cargo specs, packaging, and MSDS where required. HS codes and origin. Preferred carriers and ports if any. Free time rules and storage limits. Insurance policies. Customs profile and broker preferences. Billing rules and PO templates.

Operational Pitfalls We Prevent

  • Missed cut offs and blank sailings without a back up plan.
  • Wrong HS codes that trigger delays or fines.
  • Demurrage and detention from unclear free time terms.
  • Paperwork mismatches between invoice, packing list, and transport docs.
  • Unbooked drayage or missed delivery appointments.

FAQ

What volumes do you prefer
At least 50 TEU per month, or air and road spend that matches 250,000 USD per month. Smaller pilots considered if scale path is clear.
Can you integrate with our TMS or WMS
Yes. We can exchange EDI or API feeds for bookings, status, and PODs. Simple CSV exports are also fine.
Do you hold client funds
No. Freight is paid directly to carriers and warehouses. Our margin or fees are invoiced with full backup.
How do you handle exceptions
We issue an exception ticket with cause, options, and costs, and do not move without written approval unless safety is at risk.

We act as a freight and logistics broker coordinating carriers, warehouses, and customs brokers. We are not a carrier or NVOCC unless stated in the contract. All work is subject to KYC, AML, and sanctions screening, verification of materials, local laws, port rules, and carrier terms.
