Transhipment of cargoes at ports or at the rail stations and terminals or airport warehouses plays a great role in modern logistics chains. 

Transhipment is a process of loading of the cargo from one transport to another. It can happen within the same mode of transportation, i.e. containers can be transhipped from one vessel to another at the port of transhipment, or it can be a change of transportation means. If the port terminals under control of shipping lines commonly provide the first service, the second case needs more attention and is usually arranged and controlled by the forwarding companies, such as INTERTRANS.

There are more definitions of «transhipment» connected with deliveries by air, deliveries of bonded cargo, LCL deliveries and consolidated cargoes.

INTERTRANS has experience in all segments of this type of logistics.

Besides that INTERTRANS provides a range of services connected with transhipment of raw materials and other cargoes in bulk and/or packaged at the ports of St. Petersburg region and railway stations.
