Some cargo just doesn’t fit the standard container format. Due to dimensions, weight, or the nature of the goods, special cargo requires special acceptance, handling, loading, and transport procedures.
At DFDS, we can give your special cargo the care and gear it requires to arrive on time and in one piece.
ISO 9001 quality management system demonstrates our ability to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements.
The Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme drives best practice across the European freight industry in terms of safety, efficiency and environmental protection.
The continual investment in a range of trailers to suit customers' vastly differing requirements means that we have the right equipment to tackle the job.
We continuously innovate and invest in modern and sustainable equipment, technology, and solutions, to give you peace of mind in changing times.
