Services: We move almost everything

Our services

Container handling is our core business. However, our entire range of services is even more versatile: we offer comprehensive services in the areas of storage, maintenance and repair. Seaworthy packaging and the transportation of goods round off the professional overall container package.

The operation of intermodal terminals is a fundamental part of our service chain.

Here we facilitate a smooth transition between the various modes of transport – whether by ship, rail or truck.

EUROGATE – an essential interface in the supply chain for the transportation of goods in Europe.

We don’t just get goods on their way with container ships: in addition to our comprehensive terminal services, intermodal transport is also one of our areas of expertise. Together with our partners, we provide reliable and cost-effective transport solutions for connections between the North Sea ports and the industrial centers of Europe at all times.

EUROGATE Intermodal primarily serves destinations in Germany and Hungary. As an intermodal company, Contship Italia focuses on efficient transport services between Italy and Central Europe.

EUROGATE Intermodal, or EGIM for short, offers regular connections for container transportation between the North Sea ports, southern Germany and south-eastern Europe.

Lashing of containers and break-bulk

We have a firm grip on containers: with lashing, SWOP ensures that containers and non-containerized goods on board ocean-going vessels are secured for transport. Especially in heavy seas, the lashing protects the containers from shifting or even tipping over. This not only guarantees the integrity of the cargo, but also the safety of the crew. Additional special services at the terminal, such as the re-lashing of general cargo onto roll trailers or flatracks, are also part of our range of services.

Import and export

The right partner when it comes to import and export: SWOP. We guarantee reliable transportation of goods. With C-type customs warehouses, we have extensive storage space in Hamburg and Bremerhaven. In addition, our high-performance IT applications enable seamless documentation of all processes.

Export packaging and stowage services

Our priority: getting every load safely to its destination. Our team of trained specialists finds the optimal and standard-compliant packaging solution for every cargo – this applies to both sea and land transportation. Even heavy cargo, bulk goods or oversized loads are no challenge for our specialists: With the help of the latest technology at the EUROGATE terminals in Hamburg and Bremerhaven, we ensure that the packaging is suitable for transportation, optimally protecting every load from external influences, even during intermodal transport.

Our packaging and shipping processes are based on the respective guidelines of our clients. We work directly on site or at our terminals on flat racks, platforms, open tops or in closed containers. We provide our customers with all the necessary packaging materials directly, including prefabricated boxes and crates.

VGM

Whether export containers or flats: We weigh with an appropriate weighing system in accordance with SOLAS guidelines and method 1. This means that we determine the gross weight by weighing the entire container after packing. Our customers receive the weighing result by e-mail immediately after weighing.
