Containers and cross-border transport
From the quay to your warehouse, inland or across the border: we collect your containers at the ports of Douala and Kribi and haul them by tractor and semi-trailer, taking each corridor's constraints into account.
Needs we meet
- Getting a container out of the port and delivered inland.
- Moving goods to Bangui or Chad by road.
- Making a return leg pay by loading goods out of the Central African Republic.
What we offer
- Port collection — vehicle placement at Douala or Kribi port, loading and securing of the container (container chocks).
- Long-distance haulage — planned route with its stops and weighbridges; drivers familiar with the eastern and border roads.
- Border crossing — the driver presents the transport documents accompanying the load; customs formalities for the goods remain the responsibility of the licensed customs broker you appoint.
- Bagged goods to neighbouring countries — sugar, rice and other packaged goods on covered flatbeds.
- Return freight — review of a return load (for example timber) to optimise the round trip.
Corridors driven
- Douala / Kribi – Garoua-Boulaï – Bangui (CAR) — bagged sugar and rice, containers; timber on the return leg.
- Kribi – Chad and Douala – N'Djamena — containers, including a 40 ft container delivered to N'Djamena.

For any shipment to a neighbouring country, please state: container type and number (20 or 40 ft, full, or empty to be returned), gross weight, exact nature of the goods, delivery place, your customs broker and the documents available. Every cross-border request is reviewed: we confirm feasibility, required documents and timing before any proposal.
