INTERNATIONAL SEA FREIGHT

The bulk of our business is Commercial Cargo and household items moving via ocean. Shipments move either by full ocean freighted containers (i.e.:  20', 40', 45) or by loose load LCL (less container load).

We also offer Special Ocean Freight Flat Rack/ Flatbed and open top containers for shipments that are oversized or overweight.

Freight charges on Ocean Freight Containers are based on commodity, port of origin and port of discharge. Door delivery is another option with extra charges.

Loose Freight or LCL (less container load) is usually palletized, and rates are based on per cubic meter (L x W x H=39"x39"x39") or per 1000 Kgs/2200 lbs, whichever creates greater revenue. Loose Freight or LCL is consolidated into 20'/40' containers together with other shippers which provide considerable savings.

Please note, that consolidation does have a few disadvantages. Machinery and larger items that are loaded into the same container can cause damage to fragile items. Therefore, it is highly recommended that fragile items are placed in wooden crates.  The crate size should not exceed the interior dimensions of the container (L x W x H=234"x88"x90").

Our CFS (container freight stations) are located all around the United States and Worldwide.

We provide a Weekly Service with the shortest transit time subject to destinations.

 

EXPORTING VEHICLES OVERSEAS

Reliable Freight International offers a weekly fast transit roll on/roll off
car carrier service, including consolidation of automobiles into ocean freighted containers. 2 –3 automobiles are delivered to our warehouse from various shippers and are loaded into 40’ container. This enables each customer to share the cost of the freight charges.


RFI also accepts motor cycles and motor boats on a trailer/cradle. This service is generally shipped by 20’ 40’ & 45’ and subject to the size of the boat & trailer.
