Customized Vessel Charter Services for Specialized Cargo Needs

The Option to Vessel Charter.

When standard shipping routes just won’t cut it – whether it’s an off-the-beaten-path destination or a port that rarely sees traffic – you need a different solution. And let’s face it: traditional liner services, with their multiple stops, can feel like taking the local bus when you need an express train.

Then there are those mammoth shipments that make regular cargo look tiny – we’re talking tens of thousands of cubic meters or tons. For these behemoths of the shipping world, there’s only one real choice: vessel charter. It’s like having your own private ocean-going transport for your oversized cargo.

Think of Texas International Freight as your experienced captain in these waters. We know that the shipping world can be unpredictable, but our vessel charter expertise and deep connections with steamship lines act as your insurance policy against costly mishaps.

Why risk your project’s success? We’re here to protect you from the financial icebergs that sink budgets – like surprise demurrage charges or complicated liquidated damages issues. Let us navigate these challenging waters while you focus on your business’s success.
