Container Shipping

Container shipping means end-to-end delivery of cargo in a container: sea freight booking, supply of an empty container for loading, document handling, port formalities and tracking through to the consignee. Dragon Maritime has organised container logistics in Ukraine’s active hub — Odesa, Chornomorsk and Pivdennyi — for export, import and transit for over 10 years.

We work with leading container carriers (Maersk, MSC, CMA CGM, Hapag-Lloyd) and select the route, schedule and rate for the specific cargo and container type. When tonnage for a large parcel is needed we bring in chartering, and for the cargo — customs clearance.
