Overview
Al Rashed Intl Shipping Co. can provide customers with ocean service options whenever necessary. We provide direct consolidation services to and from every destination around the globe at a very competitive rate and at high frequency for both FCL and LCL services. Besides containerized cargo, we undertake Ro/Ro, Break Bulk and Project Cargo Movements.
For the convenience of our customers, we offer both full container load (FCL) and less-than-container load ( LCL) shipping options. LCL shipping involves sharing container space with other consignees who are shipping cargo, while FCL shipping allows you to reserve a container for your cargo exclusively.
Our experts are not only responsible for container management, but they also take care of the necessary documentation, supervise goods handling and monitor the progress of shipments. In short, we take every precaution needed to ensure that your freight arrives in a safe and sound condition.
We offer a comprehensive range of sea freight services backed by excellent infrastructure. Whatever the contract – whether bulky goods or complex project forwarding – our solutions dovetail into your particular cost and time frame. We can offer guaranteed freight capacity on many routes.
WE PROVIDE
Cargo begins its journey containerized as an ocean shipment for the first ‘short-sea’ sector. Upon arrival at the transshipment point [or ‘cross-dock’] the cargo is unloaded and it continues its journey as an air cargo shipment. This delivers a good alternative at times when space is at a premium, particularly from Asia.
LCL (‘Less than Container Load’) services are generally fixed schedule consolidations with express carriers that provide speed, security and consistency. We load multiple LCL shipments into weekly consolidation containers moving directly between Al-Rashed International Shipping Co. partners.
FCL (‘Full Container Load’) services are infinitely flexible and can be tailored to your individual need offering the best choice of equipment availability, capacity, transit time and value. Through our global partner network we protect space in all necessary markets ensuring continuity and capacity during ‘Peak Season’ periods.
