Multimodal Shipments and One Point of Contact
Real shipments rarely use a single mode. Cargo may be collected by truck, loaded in a container, sailed to Karachi, stored while it waits for clearance and delivered inland by road. Each handover is a place where time and money are lost if nobody owns it.
We plan these legs together, agree the dates with each party and keep one person responsible for the whole movement. If something changes, such as a vessel schedule or an airline cut-off, you hear it from us, with the options.
Documents and Clearance Support
Whatever the mode, the cargo needs paperwork that matches it: commercial invoice, packing list, and a bill of lading or airway bill, plus any permits the goods require. We check these before booking and keep them consistent as the shipment moves.
Customs filing for the shipments we forward is coordinated with the licensed brokers of our parent company, Arshad Sualeh Corporation. See customs clearance support.
FAQ
Freight Services FAQ
Which freight service should I choose?
Start from the cargo and the deadline. Sea freight suits heavy or bulky goods when transit time is flexible, air freight suits urgent or high-value goods, and road freight covers the inland legs. Many shipments combine them, for example sea freight to Karachi followed by road delivery to a factory.
Can one shipment use more than one mode?
Yes. A multimodal plan joins sea, air and road movements under one booking and one point of contact, with the handovers planned in advance.
Do you only work from Karachi?
Our office is in Karachi, and we arrange inland transport to cities across Pakistan. International legs are arranged with shipping lines, airlines and overseas partners.
