Container freight coordinated through Antwerp

IMS Shipping arranges full-container-load and less-than-container-load movements from Antwerp for vehicles, machinery and general cargo. The service can include coordinated third-party precarriage, origin handling, stuffing arrangements, documentation support and communication with destination agents.

The correct equipment and service depend on cargo dimensions, weight, packing, destination and timing. IMS does not treat the ocean booking in isolation: the plan starts with how cargo reaches Antwerp and how it can be safely presented for carrier acceptance.

Confirm whether cargo is stackable, hazardous, wheeled, crated or requires special lifting.
