Transporting out of gauge cargo with precision

Not all out of gauge cargo adheres to standard dimensions. Occasionally, special cargo may be misdeclared, surpassing the standard dimensions of our flat rack and open-top containers in length, width, height, or a combination thereof, leading to an Out-of-Gauge (OOG) scenario.

We understand that one size doesn't fit all in the world of out-of-gauge cargo and for this reason our team works closely with you to develop tailored solutions that align with your specific logistical needs and cargo characteristics.

Streamlined OOG declaration process

Our team at DFDS is equipped to guide you through the OOG declaration process, ensuring accurate and compliant submissions. By partnering with DFDS, you benefit from our expertise in navigating safety protocols and operational intricacies, streamlining your OOG cargo transportation.

With our meticulous approach, we help you prevent delays by ensuring that your cargo is correctly declared, reducing the risk of disruptions during the shipping process. Choose DFDS for a seamless OOG declaration process that prioritises safety, operational efficiency, and compliance.
