HIS Hamburg Intermodal Service GmbH arranges your ocean freight from the Port of Hamburg and Bremerhaven – reliably, competitively priced, and with personal service. Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL) to all world regions.
Depending on volume, weight, and transit requirements, we provide the optimal sea freight solution from Hamburg.
With FCL you book an entire container exclusively for your cargo. Ideal for larger shipments or sensitive goods that require direct transport without intermediate handling. Your goods travel in the same container from origin to destination.
LCL (also called groupage) is the cost-effective solution for smaller shipments. Your goods are consolidated with cargo from other shippers – you only pay for the space you actually use, with no minimum quantity.
From your first enquiry to final delivery – we manage your ocean freight shipment end to end.
Tell us about your shipment. We assess FCL vs. LCL, container type, routing and Incoterms – and deliver a binding quote within 24 hours.
After confirmation, we handle carrier booking, prepare all shipping documents and coordinate container pickup.
