The complete sea transport from the port of Rotterdam and Antwerp to a destination of your choice and the customs formalities are organized by Global Logistics & Forwarding B.V. By leveraging our global network and long-standing carrier relationships, Global Logistics & Forwarding B.V. brings you flexible, reliable ocean transport solutions built around operational excellence.
We take the time to understand your business and then work with you to develop customized transportation solutions, from finding the best schedule for shipments to securing competitive rates. Whether you need to split or share loads or link with other services – such as transport by air, multimodal transport, cross-border services, or customs house brokerage services – we always go above and beyond to help you find the solutions you need.
Sharing a sea container is even more advantageous
At Global Logistics & Forwarding B.V. you also have the possibility to share a sea container with other shipments, this is called Groupage Transport. When several people have the same port destination for shipping items, these items can be placed in the same sea container and sail out to your new destination. The advantage of this is that in addition to cheaper sea transport, you also share these costs with others based on the volume that you are
sending, so twice as cheap!
What do I need to consider when moving by sea?
Below you will find a number of points of attention for moving by sea container. There are certain things you need to take into account when using our sea shipments.
Over land, over sea and in the air.
With transport by sea you do not only have to think about transport to cities and countries that are close to the sea or ocean. A combination of sea, air and train or truck transport is certainly possible as well and Global Logistics & Forwarding B.V. will organize it for you.
So you can simply move internationally, for example from the Netherlands to the desert city of Las Vegas.
When delivery time needs to be as short as possible, Transport by Air is the most efficient choice. Using our international network, we ensure that your shipments are always on time. Due to our strong relationships with various airlines, we have been able to always offer the right service at competitive rates. Depending on your wishes and needs, we offer customized solutions. Whether it’s a small package or chartering an aircraft, your needs are our priority.
Our expertise and experience allow us to determine which service is best for you. For example, based on delivery time or budget. In addition, we advise you how your shipments can be shipped as efficiently as possible. With each shipment, we offer different options so you can make an informed choice about how you ship your goods.
First of all, commercial aviation allows the transport of people. Second, transport by air is one of the most widely used modes of transport. Although it is true that it is a type of transport with a high cost, speed is its most outstanding advantage. And it is that there are goods, which, by their very nature, can only and exclusively be transported by air, such as:
Over land, over sea and in the air.
Transport by Air is almost always combined with other forms of transport to eventually get the shipment from sender to recipient. In those cases, a combination of air/road transport and air/sea is often the fastest and most targeted way to bring goods to the customer. Global Logistics & Forwarding B.V. is a valuable partner of the client in these complicated logistics processes.

Global Logistics & Forwarding B.V. is the go-to logistics chain director for your rail freight. As a logistics specialist, we offer you a wide range of transport modalities around the world, including rail freight. In recent years, importing and exporting containers and general cargo by freight train has become an increasingly attractive option, partly because rail freight is faster than sea freight and cheaper than air freight.
Railway transportation is not only particularly sustainable, but is also faster than shipping and cheaper than air operations. But it is not always possible to use rail transport for the complete journey. We therefore handle the pick-up and final delivery runs for you and combine several means of transport to form multi-modal transport chains.
The liberalisation of the European railway markets has opened up a wide variety of prospects. As a result, we operate individual wagon and block train services between all the countries in Western and Eastern Europe – and beyond the European Union too.
Railway transport is often the most sensible solution outside the EU. Shipments can often be handled faster by rail because customs clearance takes place during the journey; as a result, there are no waiting times at border crossings.
