Global transport, personally arranged.<\/h1>\n\t\t\t\t\t

At Eurodelta, we understand that ocean freight is more than just moving a container from A to B. Every shipment has its own schedule, specific requirements, and challenges. That is why we do not just look for the best price, but primarily for the solution that suits your organisation and your supply chain.

Frequently asked questions about

\n \n \n \t\t\tWhat types of containers are there and which container do I need?<\/span>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n
\n \t\t\t
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

The right container depends on the volume, weight, type of goods, and any temperature or loading requirements. The most common options can be found here<\/a>.

The exact internal dimensions and maximum payload can vary per container and shipping line. As a rule of thumb: 20' for heavy cargo, 40' for more volume, and 40' High Cube when extra height is required. <\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\tWhich Incoterms\u00ae are there and what do they mean?<\/strong><\/span>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n

The Incoterms\u00ae 2020 consist of eleven rules. They determine, among other things, who is responsible for transport, costs, risk, and customs formalities. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\"\"\/\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n

\n \n \n \t\t\tWhat are demurrage and detention?<\/span>\n\t\t\n<\/span>\n
\n \t\t\t
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/summary>\n
\n \t\t\t

Demurrage refers to costs incurred when a container remains at the terminal for too long. Detention occurs when a container is held outside the terminal for too long after release before being returned. These costs can often be avoided through planning and timely documentation. <\/p>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/details>\n\n<\/div>\n
