OCEAN FREIGHT FAQ

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SHORT SEA AND DEEP SEA SHIPPING?

Deep sea shipping is the maritime transport of goods on intercontinental routes, crossing oceans. For example – going from Ireland to Canada. Short sea shipping refers to shipping freight and cargo over short distances. For example, going from Ireland to England.

WHAT IS CONSOLIDATION?

Consolidation, also known as freight consolidation, is a logistics strategy which we use here at Irish Shipping & Transport Ltd, is when we combine multiple shipments going to the same destination into a single shipment container.
