We’re committed to providing a consistently reliable road freight service in a timely and professional manner. ShipChain fully understands the challenges in local and cross border road logistics and is able to meet your needs and find a solution for your requirements.
We use our own fleet of vehicles as well as a network of carefully selected independent transporters across South Africa to ensure your cargo reaches its destination safely, on time and in the most cost-effective way.
Warehousing
Our qualified team of professionals bring their experience and know-how with them on every job. But what really sets us apart from the rest of the industry is our attention to detail and receptiveness to the unique needs of each client.
We have several options within South Africa, as well as beyond our borders, for your warehousing and distribution needs.
Project Management
Too heavy, too big? Not for ShipChain. We understand the importance of proper preparation for special transport. Anything heavy and oversized receives our special attention. No distance is too great and no load too heavy for us!
We will plan and fulfil your transport wishes for any project. Services include risk assessment, planning, project management, full and part ship/air charter, insurance and execution.
Marine Insurance
You may be exposed to material risk while your cargo is in transit. Losses and damages can be costly as law or tariff restrictions limit the liability on most carriers. Together with our approved Financial Services Provider we are able to provide you cost-effective comprehensive cover for your cargo.
We handle all administration, premiums, certificates as well as any declarations and claims on your behalf, giving you full peace of mind while your cargo is in transit.
