Ocean Cargo
Ocean freight shipping is the method of transporting containerised cargo loaded onto vessels by sea. Over 90% of all the world’s trade is carried by sea. If you want to ship your freight around the world, ocean freight is the most convenient option.
As a general rule, shipments weighing more than 100kg – or consisting of multiple cartons – will be sent by sea freight. The containers are designed and built for intermodal freight transport. That means the containers can be used across various transportation modes – from ship to rail to truck – without unloading and reloading the cargo.
Benefits and disadvantages of ocean freight shipping
There are numerous benefits and disadvantages when shipping ocean freight. We want to be transparent about both, so you know whether this is the best option for you.
The benefits of ocean freight shipping include:
- Cost-effective freight method compared to other modes (e.g. air freight)
- Cheaper than other freight modes (e.g. air freight) over long distances
- Most carbon-efficient solution
The disadvantages of ocean freight shipping include:
- Longer transit time than air freight, which means you have to wait longer for your goods to arrive
- When shipping smaller amounts of goods, the price is not sustainable

RELIABLE LAND MOVEMENT
Inland transportation is the broader term covering all transport activities that go over land using various modes such as truck, rail or barge. This approach to land-based transportation ensures that goods can be efficiently moved across multiple countries and regions.
Within inland transportation, several diverse options allow you to move cargo as per your business requirement. So, whether you want to move large volumes or smaller quantities of goods, we ensure that you can effectively meet varying needs.
Collaboration is key to mutually achieving our ambitious decarbonisation goals. For Wheelco Freight, the ask is clear – to develop low greenhouse gas (GHG) impact landside transportation solutions by 2040 that will help you to decarbonise your supply chain journey further.
To achieve this, we are prioritising efficiency measures and promoting a shift to lower GHG emissions transport modes like rail and barge. We are also looking into lower GHG emissions energy and have started piloting biofuels and battery-powered electric trucks in collaboration with our customers
