Container Car Shipping Kenya
We offer 20ft, 40ft and 40ft HQ container services to both Mombasa and Kampala. Unlike RORO vessels where all vehicles are driven directly into the ship, container shipping services to Kenya offers that extra peace of mind due to how secure the vehicle is loaded inside its very own container. No access can be gained inside the container unless it is a government official such as the Port Police or Customs border force. Once the container door has been sealed; this will not be opened until after it has arrived at your agents’ warehouse in Kenya. You can ask your agent to let you watch the container being opened. This will give you further peace of mind knowing that your goods have not been tampered with from the point of loading right up to the point of arrival.
