How do you choose the right port of discharge?

Compare total landed cost, not ocean freight alone: a cheaper port with a long inland haul, poor handling for heavy machinery or slow clearance can cost more overall. Check whether the port regularly handles machinery, has RoRo berths if you need them, and how far it is from your yard.

Also check transshipment: a direct service reduces handling and damage risk. Tell us the destination city and we compare the realistic options rather than the cheapest headline rate.
