port and terminal courier FAQs
Do you do customs clearance?
No — we move the goods landside. Clearance stays with your broker or forwarder, and we carry whatever paperwork they need with the load.
Can you access the quayside?
We deliver to the nominated landside gate or warehouse. Restricted quayside and airside areas need the terminal's own contractors.
What if the cut-off moves?
Tell us as soon as you know and we re-plan the start. Status updates means you can see exactly where the load is at any point.
