EMPTY CONTAINER REPOSITIONING
One-Way also referred to as “Cabotage” is the cost-efficient process of repositioning empty containers.
Global trade imbalance causes the accumulation of surplus containers in one location and a shortage in another, thereby creating the need to reposition empty containers in ports where there is a demand.
We offer One-Way Lease to users such as freight forwarders, NVOCC (Non Vessel Common Carrier) and Shipping Companies. This service enables the opportunity to lease a container for a one-way trip and move cargo to another destination by paying the usual freight charges. Customers can pick-up the container in one location and return the container in another location (subject to Seaco’s T&Cs and predetermined locations).
Generally, this is a win-win solution, as both parties can benefit from the One-Way move, due to streamlining operations and helping to keep transport and re-allocation costs to a minimum.
KEY BENEFITS OF ONE-WAY LEASING
COST SAVING
One-Way shipping can help to reduce transportation costs due to enabling Lessee’s to use the containers for the movement of freight for a one-way trip, helping to get the otherwise empty container repositioned at the desired port location, but only at the cost of usual freight charges.
REDUCED TRANSIT TIME
One-Way helps to streamline the logistical supply-chain by shipping directly from port one location to another, avoiding the need for cross-border points and trans shipment. This helps the cargo to reach its destination in a faster time frame.
IMPROVED INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
Cabotage can help improved inventory management by aligning inventory with production schedules and demand fluctuations.
SUSTAINABILITY
One-Way shipping is an eco-friendlier way of transporting cargo. The sustainability co-benefits help improve the efficiency of road transport by reducing empty container trips, whilst helping to relieve road congestion and CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
