The Option to Vessel Charter
Sometimes there are no regularly scheduled break bulk or general cargo vessels, or the port of call is unpopular, or trade lanes are not fast enough, or occassionally the amount of freight being shipped measures tens of thousands of cubic meters or tons. In these instances, vessel charter is the only option for your cargo. Let Texas International Freight be your guide to move this cargo by vessel charter. Things can go wrong in the freight business and our vessel charter service and well developed relationships can save your project logistics from critical mistakes and possibly disastrous errors such as incurring daily demurrage charges or running into liquidated damages issues.
