Do you ship cargo only between the UK and the Baltics or worldwide?

No. While we specialise in UK–Baltics routes, we also arrange shipments to and from global destinations through our international carrier network.

How long does it take our vessels to sail from the UK to the Baltics?

Transit times vary by port pair and service, but sailings between the UK and Baltic ports are typically a matter of days. We’ll confirm estimated transit times when quoting.

What documents do I need for vehicle shipping from the UK?

You’ll usually need the V5C (logbook), photo ID, proof of purchase (if applicable) and export/import details for the destination country. Our team will guide you through the documentation required.
