Container handling
Port control
When it comes to container transport, things often don't go wrong at sea, but in the port. Containers waiting for an inspection, documentation that just isn't right or transport that arrives too late or too early.
The result is downtime, extra costs and unnecessary pressure on the schedule. Flevo Trade Service ensures that container handling is tightly organized. From arrival at the port to delivery to the final location.

More than unloading and customs
Container handling consists of several steps that must be linked together. A container enters the port, but has not been released yet. Depending on the load, additional checks, such as veterinary or phytosanitary inspections, are necessary. In addition, the correct documentation must be available and match the contents of the container. A missed inspection appointment or incomplete documentation ensures that a container remains standing, resulting in rising costs.
Container handling therefore does not stand alone. It requires coordination between shipping companies, carriers, customs and inspection services. Planning plays a major role here. Containers must be available on time for inspection, transport and customs clearance. Problems often arise when these steps are not properly coordinated.
Complete care
Container handling involves various cost flows, such as port costs, transport, inspections and customs processing. Flevo Trade Service coordinates this processing and provides an overview of the invoice flow. This prevents loose payments and ambiguity afterwards.

Our work process
Container handling seems like logistical work, but in practice, it's about substantive knowledge of regulations and controls. Especially with fish and food products where veterinary requirements apply. Through experience, regular contacts and daily practice, we know how processes run and where there are risks
