Good types in ocean freight transport
Let us transport your consignment, whatever it is:
- Dry goods: in Dry Van (standard size) or High Cube containers (which can take a bigger load at the same cost).
- Reefer freight: refrigerated or frozen goods transported in RH or Reefer containers..
- IMO freight: dangerous goods which can be transported in both Dry Van and High Cube containers.
Groupage options in ocean freight transport
We’ll help you to choose the best transport option for your goods:
- LCL groupage shipping (Less than Container Load): We group your load in a same container with others to offer you a more economical price. This option is suitable for dry and IMO freight.
- FCL shipping container (Full Container Load): We ship your load in its own exclusive container. This option is suitable for all three types of cargo: dry, reefer and IMO.

We work with all international ports to guarantee that your load will safely reach any part of the world by sea, with neither delays nor mishaps.
Ocean transport of dangerous goods
Ships and containers must meet a series of regulations and standards in order to minimise risks with respect to the goods transported, as well as to human lives and the environment.
The International Maritime Organisation is responsible for classifying dangerous goods, which is why this kind of freight is referred to in shipping terms as IMO goods. Here we refer to goods such as explosives, gases, flammable, toxic, corrosive and radioactive materials. While the strict controls in place for the transportation of these goods may seem excessive, remember that some of them very regularly travel by sea, and that among them they include oil tankers.
The shipping of dangerous goods is regulated by the IMDG (International Maritime Dangerous Goods) Code, which controls aspects such as the packaging, labelling or stowing of goods on ships, while also providing protocols for dealing with potential emergencies and accidents.
At Bilogistik we are qualified to handle dangerous goods, and can manage the transport of your IMO cargo fast and safely.
