Enable seamless connectivity with Maersk Intermodal Transport

Your cargo journey rarely begins or ends at ports, which makes the inland leg of those journeys equally important. Maersk Intermodal Transport is a great way to seamlessly connect ocean terminals (CY) and inland locations – be it a warehouse, store door location (SD), container freight station (CFS), or any other place where you need your cargo to be either collected and/or delivered in full container loads (FCL).

With Intermodal – Carrier Haulage and Intermodal – Multi Carrier, we can connect your inland locations with ocean ports, irrespective of the carrier that has been deployed for ocean transportation.

Intermodal – Carrier Haulage

This service involves teaming up with Maersk Ocean Services to facilitate end-to-end transport of your containerised cargo (FCL). Our team handles every step of the journey, ensuring a hassle-free experience.

Inland transportation of containers shipped by Maersk Ocean Services

On the export side of your supply chain, we manage empty container collection, positioning at your designated inland spot, and onward delivery to the loading port for shipment by Maersk Ocean Services. 

On the import side, we retrieve your full container from the vessel's arrival port, deliver it to your chosen inland destination (or directly to your customers – as per your request), and return the empty container to the container depot.
