Sea Freight Services
3Sixty’s freight forwarder services take to the water with our sea freight service. Our freight forwarders manage sea logistics – whether you’re importing or exporting goods – ensuring your cargo takes the most effective route possible from port to port.
Great Customer Service Starts and Ends with Professionalism
There is one mark of distinction that sets 3Sixty apart from other sea freight service providers – our focus on old-fashioned customer service. That’s something we believe is missing in the modern freight industry. So, we’ve made being a customer-first partner to your company a cornerstone of everything that we do.
Take Advantage of Huge Shipping Capacities
A sea freight forwarder can offer something that most other types of freight forwarders can’t – enormous shipping capacities. If you have large volumes of goods (whether heavy or light), ocean freight is the ideal choice because of the sheer size of the ships used to transport freight. You can pack almost anything onto a large enough ship, and 3Sixty ensures you have access to the best options available.
Fewer Restrictions Mean You Can Ship More Cargo
As fast as air freight may be, it comes with some limitations. You can’t ship flammable materials, biochemicals, perfumes, and a range of other goods by air because of various customs restrictions. Ocean freight shipping services aren’t free of restrictions, of course, but you’ll face fewer than you will when transporting your goods by air.
Keep Carbon Emissions Low to Minimise Environmental Impact
Harvard Business School tells us that over three-quarters of customers (77%) prefer to buy from companies that commit to making the world a better place. Sea freight is your route to minimising your environmental impact using a logistical solution that produces less CO2 than equivalent journeys via air freight, road, or even rail.
Streamline Your Supply Chain Solutions
Ensuring your cargo is on the right ship at the right time is just the first element of a quality sea freight service. Your entire supply chain has to be taken into account. 3Sixty ensures that happens by offering supporting services – including warehousing, distribution, order fulfilment, and inventory management – to strengthen every link of the supply chain that supports your sea freight activities. Visibility is our goal – we deliver a transparent supply chain solution that leaves you confident enough to place your focus on other areas of your business.
Compliance and Customs Expertise
Navigating customs regulations and ensuring compliance is crucial in international shipping and sea freight. At 3Sixty Logistics, we understand the intricacies of customs requirements and ensure that your sea freight shipments fully comply with all necessary regulations. Our experienced team is well-versed in customs processes and documentation, handling all aspects of customs clearance with efficiency and accuracy. Trust us to streamline the customs process, minimising delays and ensuring smooth clearance for your sea freight shipments.
Cost Reduction Through Volume
By combining our global network with simple economies of scale (the more you ship, the less you pay), 3Sixty finds the most efficient ocean-bound ways to transport your cargo. We capitalize on our network, knowledge, and the simple fact that we’re responsible for shipping huge quantities of goods to help you achieve cost-effective sea freight while maintaining the safety standards and quality you expect.
Global Reach Through Our Extensive Network
Worldwide shipments require a global network – one that 3Sixty provides. We maintain presences in major freight hubs, including Southeast Asia, Australasia, North America, and Europe, to ensure that no corner of the globe is too far away for your cargo. Whether that means navigating sea routes before using land freight to transport your goods to the heart of New York or shipping your cargo to rural destinations in China, we have the connections to make it happen and the expertise to keep your costs low.
Other Services
Refrigerated transport is a requirement for many types of cargo, including perishable foods, chemicals, and some electronics. As the best freight forwarders in Australia, 3Sixty offers temperature-controlled transportation that ensures the freshness and quality of your cargo are maintained both while in transit and storage.
Standard freight forwarding solutions may not be up to the task when you’re transporting fragile goods. You need a company that handles fragile goods transport safely to maintain the integrity of your cargo. 3Sixty is that company – our professionals are specially trained to handle delicate cargo.
Ensuring your customers are happy with the products you supply is key to success as an e-commerce retailer. That extends to delivery – happy customers are those who receive their items on time. As your e-commerce freight forwarding agent, 3Sixty coordinates inventory management, shipping, and order fulfillment on your behalf.
Even the most reliable freight forward company needs to ensure its clients are prepared in case the word happens. That’s where cargo insurance comes in – our professionals coordinate cargo insurance so your goods have the coverage they need.
Planning, management, and coordination – those are the three ingredients that go into the project logistics recipe. As the best freight forwarder in Australia, you can trust 3Sixty to manage transportation so your cargo arrives on time, every time.
Secure storage is a must when your cargo needs to be kept in one place for extended periods. The 3Sixty international freight forwarding company offers full warehousing services – reinforced by fully trained staff – so you don’t have to worry about storing, picking, or fulfilling orders from warehouses you don’t trust.
The top freight forwarders know that a single weak link in a supply chain can cause delays and cost businesses money. Trust 3Sixty Logistics to streamline supply chains through our network of global partners. With us, you have a partner that oversees your goods from point of origin to final destination.
There’s one job we task to our customs clearance agents – clear customs. That may sound simple. But in international freight, you may have to comply with several different countries and their customs regulations to keep your cargo moving. Our professionals manage customs documentation to ensure your goods sail through every check they’re subjected to.
As part of our international freight forward service, 3Sixty ensures your cargo gets on the right track whenever you need to rely on rail freight in the transportation process. Our experts coordinate rail logistics – ensuring your cargo is loaded properly so it can speed to its destination.
Agility is the hallmark of 3Sixty’s road-based freight forwarding logistics service. Leveraging our network of partners – domestically and internationally – we manage on-road logistics while ensuring your cargo is both loaded and transported safely using trucks designed specifically to tailor to your needs.
3Sixty’s freight forwarder services take to the water with our sea freight service. Our freight forwarders manage sea logistics – whether you’re importing or exporting goods – ensuring your cargo takes the most effective route possible from port to port.
Take to the skies with an air freight forwarder who understands that air freight is about so much more than simply loading cargo onto a plane. Our professionals manage air shipments meticulously by building relationships with suppliers, allocating appropriate space for your cargo, and ensuring rapid turnaround times.
The international freight forwarding process can become complicated. Not only do you need to choose the best form of transport, but you may have a minefield of customs compliance issues to navigate to get your cargo from A to B. 3Sixty helps with everything from overseas customs compliance to choosing the best routes for your cargo to take.
