As one of the world’s largest container shipping companies, we move 12 million containers every year and deliver to every corner of the globe
Ocean Freight Services
Ocean freight is the backbone of global trade, carrying more than 90% of the world’s goods. At Rhine Logistics GmbH, we provide efficient and cost-effective sea freight solutions for businesses moving large volumes of cargo across continents.
Whether you’re shipping multiple cartons or heavy cargo over 100kg, ocean freight offers the most practical solution for long-distance transport. We handle both Full Container Load (FCL) and Less-than-Container Load (LCL) shipments, giving you the flexibility to scale according to your needs.
Our containers are designed for seamless intermodal transport—moving smoothly from ship to rail to truck—minimizing handling while maximizing efficiency throughout your supply chain.
From port-to-port to door-to-door, we manage every detail, including documentation, customs clearance, and inland logistics.
With Rhine Logistics GmbH, you can trust that your cargo will cross the seas securely, efficiently, and on schedule.
Benefits and disadvantages of ocean freight shipping
At Rhine Logistics GmbH, we believe in transparency. Ocean freight offers many advantages, but it also has limitations. Here’s what you should consider when deciding if it’s the right choice for your business:
Benefits of Ocean Freight
-
Cost-Effective – More economical than air freight, especially for long-distance shipping.
-
Scalable – Ideal for large-volume shipments, with flexible options like FCL and LCL.
-
Eco-Friendly – The most carbon-efficient mode of international transport.
Considerations of Ocean Freight
-
Longer Transit Times – Compared to air freight, delivery takes more time, which may delay goods.
-
Less Practical for Small Loads – Shipping very small volumes may not be cost-effective.
Our team at Rhine Logistics GmbH can help you weigh these factors and design the right logistics solution for your business.
