Frequently Asked Questions: Ocean Freight Operations
How do I get visibility on my shipments during inland rail moves?
The rail leg is notoriously a “black hole” for tracking, but we replace generic portals with white-glove management. We monitor your cargo from ocean transit through CN/CP rail networks, alerting you to milestones proactively.
Does your pricing include cargo insurance?
Carrier liability is extremely limited under maritime law. While basic rates don’t include full-value insurance, we can arrange comprehensive, all-risk marine cargo insurance at competitive premiums.
Can you guarantee exact arrival dates?
While no forwarder controls weather or vessels, our proactive routing mitigates risks. We provide data-backed ETAs and build contingency plans to protect critical deadlines.
What payment terms do you offer?
We offer transparent invoicing with wire transfers, credit cards, and corporate portals. Flexible B2B credit terms are available subject to account approval.
